Hungarian Summary:

Az amerikai pszichológus illetve pszichiáter szerzők a saját klinikájukon megfordult több ezer pácienssel folytatott terápiás tapasztalataik felhasználásával mutatják be azokat a kóros kapcsolati mintákat, melyeket összefoglalóan kodependenciának neveznek. A társfüggőség okai között említik és elemzik a kielégítetlen érzelmi szükségleteket, az elveszett gyermekkor jelenségét és a diszfunkcionális családok helyrehozására irányuló belső kényszert. Számba veszik azokat a tényezőket, melyek a társfüggő párokat nem engedik kiszakadni a szenvedés körforgásából: a függés hólabda-hatását, a tagadást és a dühöt. S az olvasó ahhoz is segítséget kap, hogy saját kapcsolataira rátekintve átgondolja a rosszul működő minták hatásait, s a problémákat fenntartó tényezőket megfékezhesse.

English Summary:

Best-selling doctors, Hemfelt, Minirth, and Meier, walk you through their ten proven stages to recovery from codependency that results from external circumstances. Humans are susceptible to codependency because of our sinful tendency to use defense mechanisms to fool ourselves. In codependent relationships, deceitful games are played, and important Christian principles are often taken out of context and abused. God wants us to have healthy relationships with a balance between being dependent and independent. The doctors describe how the most effective means of overcoming codependent relationships is to establish or deepen a relationship with Christ Himself. They describe the causes of codependency, pointing out the factors that perpetuate it, and lead readers through their ten stages of recovery.
