Product Description
Are you in love–or addicted? How to know when to call it quits…and how to find the courage to call it quits.
Are you unable to leave a love relationship even though it gives you more pain than joy? Your judgment and self-respect tell you to end it, but still, to your dismay, you hang on. You are addicted–to a person. Now there is an insightful, step-by-step guide to breaking that addiction–and surviving the split. Drawing on dozens of provocative case histories, psychotherapist Howard Helpern explains to you:
Why you can get addicted to a person.
Why and how you may try to deceive yourself. (“He really loves me, he just doesn’t know how to show it.”)
How you can recognize the symptoms of a bad relationship.
How to deal with the power moves and guilt trips your partner uses to hold you.
Why strong feelings of jealousy do not mean you are “in love.”

How to Break Your Addiction to a Person
This book read like a rocket science instruction manual. A waste of time, and will only leave you more confused.
I was looking for help with my relationship addiction. This book is so stuffed with mumbo jumbo I couldn’t get through the first chapter.
Very poor service, either from the sender or from Amazon. As a long time Amazon client, I’m disappointed that I never received this item.
There are better out there. I gave it three stars because it wasn’t a total waste of time but basically did not care for the book.
I lost interest half way through this book, as I do not agree with the concepts within it. It seems as though the entire book is based on if your mother left you for 3 minutes in the crib when you were a baby crying for milk. There is not 1 mom out there who was sitting next to their baby 24/7 ready to serve them, so does that mean every single human being out there has addiction problems.
