Enablers are like tiny ships tossed on a stormy sea.
Read MoreThe books describe 23 years of recovering from enabling and observing other enablers. It also describes the cyclical behavioral patterns of individuals with substance use disorders and the corresponding responses of each level of enabler. We profile different degrees of enabling. There are self-reflective tools to help identify true vs. false repentance, excuse making, dysfunctional thinking, trust scale, entanglement gauge, toxic relationship warning signs with unhealthy and healthy relationship paradigms, a distance evaluator, entitlement attitude, and a guilt trap.
The books also outline how to identify a manipulator and things to consider before confronting and exposing a manipulator. There are behavioral evaluation lists for what love is and what love isn't, emotional immaturity vs. maturity, emotional stability, irrational coping skills, and how to develop a peaceful home.
Another chapter deals with our anxiety and helps us measure it with an anxiety quotient quiz, emotional roller coaster paradigm, and identifying if our emotions or our intellect reign. Further constructs are built on how to possess our own identity. We explore how to be intentional, how to deal with irritations, and twelve practical steps to understanding detachment.
More reflection is discussed on how to identify who is hindering our recovery from enabling and how to identify people with devouring behaviors and avoid them.
Final comments are written on how to build a bridge with a person in recovery from substance use disorder or grieve the loss of a loved one. There are multiple questions to ask ourselves to reflect upon the severity of our circumstances and to help us identify our own dysfunctional behaviors.
Stay tuned for additional works from A Thousand Tears, LLC, as we are beginning to develop a series of workbooks based upon the two books found under the Store tab that can be used for individual or small group study.
The book ends with quiet, reflective journaling prompts and a couple hundred snippets of wisdom.
