Description
For those who grew up in an unstable home environment, the phrase "it will never happen to me" may have been a coping mechanism. However, research suggests that children of alcoholics are more likely to experience problems in adulthood, including depression, anxiety and relationship issues.
This book offers a comprehensive overview of the roles that children with alcoholic parents take on, from the Responsible One to the Acting Out Child, and how they evolve throughout childhood and adulthood. Claudia Black, Ph.D., shares her expertise and personal experiences working with adult children of alcoholics to provide practical guidance and resources for those struggling with addiction.
With thoughtful questions and problem-solving exercises, this book provides a supportive framework for processing the impact of living in an alcoholic household and breaking free from destructive patterns. A valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand their childhood experiences and restructure their lives.
