This is an excellent book. I'm on my second reading of it. For anyone who wants to develop better boundaries and relationship skills, especially if the tendency is to be co-dependent or easily hurt by others -- this is the book for you!

Detailed and practical this book is filled with great information and exercises to get you thinking about the ways we invite and the ways to work out of the grasp of the varied vampires, Machiavellians, narcissists, sadists, or combination there of that might have infected YOUR LIFE. Chapters 1-Overwhelmed, Enmeshed and Manipulated 2-Emotional susceptibility and Seduction 3-YOU ARE NOT ALWAYS RESPONSIBLY FOR OTHERS (I LIKE THIS ONE A LOT!) 4-Let others have their feelings. (Brilliant! Yes What a concept!) 5-How You Play Into Others' Hands 6-Psychological Strength 7-Emotional Strength 8-Your Creative Self 9-Your Inspirational Self 10- Better Relationships References More than 10 exercises dispersed throughout the chapters to do or not. If you don't do them it won't effect your ability to get through the rest of the material either. Just what I needed to boost me out of the caregivers rut and narcissistic family. Read and get on with YOUR LIFE! ;-)

This book is amazing. They say that the support group for children of functional families is the smallest in the world. This book is for the rest of us. If you have ever done something you didn't want to do because you lacked psychological strength of self and adequate boundary control, or if you have ever had someone else violate your boundaries in other ways, you need this book. It will help you identify the reasons you have allowed boundary intrusion, and will teach you how to mature into a self-directed person with healthier relationships.
