Co-dependency -- of which enabling is a major element -- can and does exist in families where there is no chemical dependency.
Angelyn Miller's own experience is a dramatic example: neither she nor her husband drank, yet her family was floundering in that same dynamic.
In spite of her best efforts to fix everything (and everyone), the turmoil continued until she discovered that helping wasn't helping.
Miller recounts how she learned to alter the way she responded to family crises and general neediness, forever breaking the cycle of co-dependency. Offering insights, practical techniques, and hope, she shows us how we can transform enabling relationships into healthy ones.
This book was written by Angelyn Miller and is available on Amazon for Kindle, in Hardback and Paperback
The Devil At the Door is... Heroin. Heroin doesn't discriminate. It destroys lives and families and is robbing our community. These pages are the personal Chronicles of loving a child who uses and abuses heroin and opiates. You can also find what I hope to be helpful links, info and resources as well as sometimes whatever is on my mind at the moment... even an occasional venting!
