In particular, I found it lifesaving to know that there was a narcissistic personality type--and I'd married one. There were times I thought I was going crazy dealing with my wife, but Susan Peabody's book helped me to see that I wasn't always guilty or always wrong. The relationship between my codependency and love addiction to a narcissist was defined in non-threatening terms, and I found myself more able to separate from her as a result of reading this book. Additionally, the strategies for getting and maintaining healthy relationships mentioned in this work continues to be of great help to me.

I picked up this book after reading the positive reviews, but after reading it the book had nothing new to add to the subject. And I am puzzled why it got the positive reviews that are listed.

It is just a WEAK attempt to cover the topic of love addiction. There are better books out there on the subject! Save your money and steer clear of this book!
