Summary of Susan Peabody's Addiction to Love

Sinopse

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 Obsessing over a person or a relationship is a symptom of an addiction. Love addicts project their dreams for eternal happiness onto the loved one, and they become completely preoccupied with the new relationship.#2 The hallmark of an addictive relationship is the fact that the deterioration of the relationship does not mean the end of the union. Because love addicts are dependent on their relationships to keep their dreams of happiness alive, they are far from ready to give up.#3 The roots of addiction to love can be traced back to childhood deprivation. If the feelings of safety and euphoria were interrupted in a healthy way, the child felt secure in their independence and not as if they had been cut adrift from their life-giving source.#4 The impact of peer rejection is similar for love addicts and children who grew up in a dysfunctional home. It makes them insecure and hungry for acceptance. They are unable to find love in a normal way, and they become obsessed with finding it with someone who can provide it.
