The Road Back to Me: Healing and Recovering from Co-Dependency, Addiction, Enabling, and Low Self Esteem

Codependency and Narcissistic Abuse Recovery/Understanding the Wounded Inner Child
Lisa A. Romano was born to two unrecovered adult children of alcoholics. She was raised to feel invisible and not good enough. As a child she was bullied and pushed to contemplate suicide. In this book, her words are deeply moving as she recalls with uncanny detail the moments that shaped her life and caused her to suffer from a deep sense of unworthiness. This book is written in gripping small chapters. Romano's crafts her stories in a way that makes you feel like you are standing beside her, enduring the chaos of her inner child's life. If you have forgotten many of your most painful childhood memories, Romano's words will help you remember. The author strongly believes that what happens in childhood becomes the framework for the adult life experience. When a child feels unloved, Romano does a brilliant job at helping her readers understand the daunting consequences that undoubtedly haunt a wounded adult child for the rest of their lives. This author's intention for writing this book was to help trigger the emotional memories of her reader, so they can more deeply heal from their own dysfunctional childhood programming. Romano is a breath of fresh air, unafraid to speak it like she sees it. She is a refuge for abused adult children who have forgotten and perhaps buried the pains of the past. Her work is powerfully healing and assists those wishing to become free of codependency, obsessive thinking, denial, and fear. Bravo Lisa A. Romano from one adult child of an alcoholic to another. If you are on the healing path, this book will not disappoint.
