Synopsis :

An insightful and empowering new take on codependent behavior, revealing the underlying reasons we struggle with over-giving and overdoing

When you hear the word "codependent," you might think of the traditional enabler framework involving a hapless victim and their selfless rescuer. Psychotherapist and boundary expert Terri Cole certainly did. But after years in her therapy practice, she realized that many of her clients were presenting codependent behaviors that fell outside of the classic model. Terri calls this new paradigm "high-functioning codependency" (HFC).

The ironic truth with high-functioning codependency is that the more capable you are, the more your behavior doesn't actually seem codependent. "As HFCs, our desire to feel at peace often drives us to chronic over-functioning and overinvestment with the loved ones in our lives," says Terri. "Even with those we don't love... or sometimes with folks we barely know." Here, Terri breaks down the characteristics of high-functioning codependency--including how to identify one's "HFC blueprint"--so you can get more clarity around what's going on under the surface of your behavior and take steps toward better boundaries, self-care, and integrity.

You'll walk away with a clear understanding of how you relate to others and the world... with a newfound inner peace. With the teachings and tools in Too Much, now you can break the cycle of overdoing and over-giving and start living a more authentic and joyful life.
