Description
This new edition of Perfect Daughters offers an updated understanding of the complex dynamics at play in adult daughters of alcoholics. By exploring the thoughts, feelings and experiences of twelve hundred women who have struggled with these patterns, Dr. Ackerman provides a unique opportunity for readers to reflect on their own life's journey and begin the process of healing and growth.
Through this book, you'll discover how the 'perfect daughters' - those who operate from harsh and limiting views of themselves and the world - often struggle with addiction, codependency and self-worth. You'll also find helpful suggestions for recovery, including new material on eating disorders and affirming advice from Dr. Ackerman.
This edition includes a comprehensive reference section and complete index, making it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to understand and overcome these issues. Whether you're looking for validation, hope or support, or simply seeking to deepen your understanding of yourself and others, this book is a valuable companion on your journey towards healing and growth.
