5.0 out of 5 stars Good book
Therapist recommended it. Good book.
5.0 out of 5 stars Recent Purchase
Very insightful book about covering functional vs. dysfunctional/abusive behaviors , though making the reader aware that normal may not necesarily be functional healthy behavior. Good for anybody looking to understand what are basic functional healthy behaviors.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful for CPTSD/Codependence Recovery
This book, although very triggering at times, helped me break through a very big layer of denial about my family history. Although it can be sad to face a grim reality, it was nice to feel “seen” and know that there are others who have had the same struggles. After seeing some negative reviews, it became apparent to me that these reviewers have either been blessed enough to not have had to endure an abusive childhood or they still are in deep denial. This book maybe isn’t for beginners on their journey to recovery, but it was a profoundly helpful and riveting read for me. Hope all you survivors take care of yourself out there, sending you my love and support.
5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE
This is a phenomenal book. This book should be required reading for every person before entering a relationship. This book breaks down codependency in very easy to understand terms as well as easily to relate to terms too. It goes indepth into the different ypes of codependency. If you are looking for better, healthier, relationships in your life, this book is a must read. We are reading it as a family with my adult kids. It has brought us all so much closer and healed so many misunderstandings. If you have substance abuse or narcissism in your family, this book is just so helpful in understanding these conditions and provides hope for those affected. This book is excellent. I can't say it enough.
4.0 out of 5 stars Facing Codependency
I read this book because a friend's therapist recommended it to her, and I am interested in improving my own understanding of the issues in my life and those I mentor and counsel. It has a lot of great information. I'm always curious about the foundation of an author who uses the word "Higher Power" more frequently than God. As a Christian, this creates questions. There were a few of her core beliefs that I disagreed with, but from an educational perspective, I learned some things. As my own therapist tells me, you chew it up, keep the meat, and spit out the bones.
5.0 out of 5 stars Must Read For All Who Are or Near A Codependent
If you’re reading this review then the greatest gift you can give yourself, right now, is this book. For my work and personal life I perform ongoing research of childhood trauma from neglect, mental abuse, physical abuse, substance abuse, and self harm. Pia’s updated book on Facing Codependence is life changing. Why? Because, Pia explains in easy to understand terms how codependency is developed, traits, and tools to overcome the devastation of this disease. Additionally, Pia shares her decades of research on family dysfunction. My favorite part of Pia’s writing style is how she explains a functional and dysfunctional family. Must have for anyone who has a personal experience of abuse, neglect, or addiction as a child or adult. Equally, a must for anyone who is close to an individual (or group) that’s suffers from any other above mentioned.I would recommend Pia’s other books and YouTube videos as well.
5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Book I've Found on the Subject of Codependence
I've read a lot of books on this subject. Most of the books I read approached the subject assuming I'm living with an addict, or I am an addict. Neither of which is true in my case. I was raised by an alcoholic parent and have pretty severe codependent qualities. This book approaches codependence from an abuse perspective, defining abuse any parenting that was not nurturing. I was shocked how many times her narrative hit with me. If you are really striving to put codependence in the past, I would wholeheartedly recommend Facing Codependence by Pia Mellody, along with talk therapy.

Underwhelming
Good as an introduction but if you seek depth, I recommend John Bradshaw.
Intriguing read
This book explains what codependence is and how it affects the relationship with self and people around you. Pia does a great job in presenting codependence symptoms and also the natural characteristics of a child are. She also describes the relation of overnurturing or undernurturing of those characteristics to codependence symptoms. One thing I didn't like was the tools to correct those symptoms are mentioned in a different book. Nonetheless bringing those unconscious and supposedly authentic reactions to limelight makes me more mindful about what I feel and what I do.
Excellent
Essential reading for anyone who has difficulties with relationships - either personal or professional. The workbook that goes with it (and needs to be bought separately) is also excellent.
