3.0 out of 5 stars Good - but not outstanding!, 21 Sep 1999
By A Customer
Good at making you understand you are not alone in obsessing about someone.....and making it seem like an 'understandable' disorder. Also, excellent in explaining the relevance of past relationships with parents or other significant adults in the way you relate in your adult life, and who you choose.

I didn't find the recovery advice of much use - but then, maybe it would work for someone else.

4.0 out of 5 stars Extremely enlightening advice for sufferers of obsession, 6 Oct 2001
By A Customer
I have read this book at least over 10 times. It is definitely worthy of high respect if understood at an emotional level and not just an intellectual level.

The practical advice I found, was difficult to put into practice without the help of a counsellor, but this may not be so for everyone. Recovery of obsession is certainly easier said than done, but with understanding of reasons for being hooked in this painful sometimes life threatening situation, it has definitely clear views on the root courses of obsession.

I highly recommend this book as it certainly changed my perception of relationships with others, especially parents, family members and partner relationships - for the better. It also made me aware of what was possibly coming my way and I was able to recognise uncomfortable situations and leads to possible obsessive behaviour in myself.

A very enlightening book indeed.
