Amazing book to read it really helped me and changed my life

Fantastic book. Very life changing information.

CHANGED MY LIFE!!!! Thank you 🙏

Great book. Good tools to move forward when your feet our stuck in wet cement. This book gives you hope and some fist pumps.

Very good book I’ve never finished it, but it’s been slightly helpful and it’s well written

I have to say this book has really helped me with raising my grandson and son who have ADHD. Made me realize what an enabler I was with my older son who has many issues.

My best friend gave me her copy years ago when I needed change badly. It changed my whole perspective. I’ve since given that copy on to someone else and then continued to purchase this book many times to gift whenever someone needs it. This book is truly a life changer if you’re receptive to understanding why you’ve been stuck in the same pattern.

At the time I bought this book people kept encouraging me to read it because I was in a four year relationship with a heroin user who was physically emotionally verbally abusive. He cheated often and refused to let me go. And I refuse to let him go. I wasn’t sure why I felt I needed his love and I needed him to be around me and I needed to control him, but I did. And that just contributed to my feelings of shame. I wanted to die. I often thought about suicide. I read chapter one and two and for the first time I was able to get the strength to leave him. It took about a month and a half but I left him and that was three years ago. I have not gone back to him. But surprisingly two months after I left him he got into recovery. I was already in recovery for a couple of years. I now have 5 1/2 years clean. He now has 2 1/2 years clean. We’re not necessarily friends because he still has some of the same behaviors but the most important part is I have moved on. I’m still dealing with all of my grief and healing and trauma that happened long before him. But this book showed me how to focus on myself. I finally got my credit together. I finally moved out of low-cost housing. I finally got a job Making a lot of money like I always wanted to. And I finally purchased a preparatory course for the LSAT because I plan on going to law school. Buy this book and read it!!!
