Love addiction manifests in many forms, from fatal attraction-type obsessive lust to less extreme but nonetheless psychologically and emotionally harmful forms. The most common of these is staying in a bad relationship because of a fear of being alone - the "I hate you but don't leave me" relationship.Â
In Addiction to Love, recovering love addict Susan Peabody explains the variety of ways this disorder plays out, from the obsessively doting love addict to the addict who can't disentangle from an unfulfilling, dead-end relationship.Â
Peabody provides an in-depth and easy-to-follow recovery program for those suffering from this unhealthy and often dangerous addiction and explains how to create a loving, safe, and fulfilling relationship.

Addiction to Love Overcoming Obsession and Dependency in Relationships Audible Audio Edition Susan Peabody Randye Kaye Tantor Audio Books Reviews
- I found this book a bit useful, but also was a bit disappointed that it seems simplistic. Rather than go into depth about different forms of love addiction, it mostly just gives lists of some things to do. It just doesn't go into depth or complexity as much as I wanted it to. It's also more religious than I expected based on what I had read of its description and reviews.
- This book is a wonderful read for a person who has had a string of unsuccessful relationships and feels that the problem is everyone else! This is a book that will lead anyone to a greater level of maturity and understanding about love and how they love and how the way they love affects others. You really get an understanding of the pattern that is created by an emotional needy person and why they need and crave this love in an unhealthy way. For anyone who is dependant or codependent and may not even realize it, this is a great eye opener that helps you to look at your family history and how you perhaps were not really raised in a household that gave you that attention, validation, and emotional awareness you needed. So now you are an emotionally regressed adult looking for what you did not get growing up in relationships with not only lovers but friends. You are determined to make it work even when its not a good situation to be in. I think this read will bring anyone into self awareness and help them to be aware of others. I had to learn the difference between healthy love and unhealthy love, especially if you got some confusing messages growing up. Some people don't know they are codependant, because they are really successful and independant, people come to them for advice, but get them in a relationhip behind closed doors and the needy weak inner-child comes out. This is a MUST for everyone our society does not focus on this topic enough, however we focus in on the results of love addiction suicide, shopaholics, stalkers, serial daters (no break between relationships), substance abuse, trying to be perfect for love at all costs, people who feel victimized because they keep running into the same type of emotionally unavailable person. It's all in here. Love addicts After reading this book its important to find things that validate you and make you happy a hobby, exploring talents, something that does not cost money (nothing you can show off about). Some counseling and journaling and you can beat this! Oh and do not forget to evaluate your complete circle and walk away from some friendships, you may even have to distance yourself from unhealthy family members. Don't feel guitly its your life! Enjoy

- I was very satisfied with this book. Having read two books prior to this Please don't say you need me and How many lies are too many, I was still searching trying to pin point "where" I had fallen back into Co dependent behavior (after years and $$$$$ in therapy). This book not only nailed it but gave me insight into my spouse as well, which took some of the sting out of a 20 yr marriage ending in divorce. The author provides a wealth of resources to further your knowledge, healing and hopefully recovery. It was a very clear non clinical read that had me hooked at the kindle sample. Not too many personal or third person stories, which can be a distraction given the topic. But enough examples to clearly illustrate the topic for the reader. If you are or with a co dependent this is a very helpful "next level" study on the topic and well worth the read.
- It was clear , precise and very easy to understand. It gave practical steps in how to recognize if you are addicted. If you are an avoider. In addition to the dynamics of how they work together. It itentfies the wounding that took place to get you in this situation. Most importantly to all audience that reads this type of book is; is there hope and healing to be had either as a couple or an individual? If so how and what could they do? This book offers both if those.
Enjoy it, mark it up with a pen, highlighter and your tears as you go through your soul wound healing journey. DT - Great book for anyone who is in a relationship, was in a relationship, or raised by a parent who, or maybe your best childhood friend was... a toxic person. This has perhaps left you to be an obsessive, dependant door mat. this book shows you how you can reclaim your life. Live for your own joy and stop serving those who mentally abuse you. it is an amazing feeling when you no longer serve your abuser and become your own first love. It's amazing how you start to attract other people to you with this new found self respect. The world loves a winner )
- I've bought this book twice. The first time to get me through a difficult breakup then lent it out and never got it back. I bought it again to help a friend with their situation and heard it helped them just as much as it helped me. Great stuff!
- GUT wrenching but in a good, I really needed to read this, way. I wish I would have found this book sooner! I read it in one seating. Seeing my self on almost every page was hard to handle but I look forward to recovery. This is the first time I see a concrete and comprehensive path to a better life!
