Addiction to love and sex is surrounded by an aura of secrecy and shame. Not every psychologist knows how to work with her, and getting help can be difficult. The author of this book, clinical psychologist Kerry Cohen, herself experienced such addiction, so her advice on the pages of this book is particularly credible. She successfully combines scientific information, professional advice and simple worldly wisdom, which she learned from her own bitter experience.

How not to burn out in the fever of love and be able to build healthy, safe relationships? The answers are inside.

If you have asked yourself: why does everyone succeed in their personal life, but I don’t; what’s wrong with me; why is love so hard; how to make relationships healthier and safer – this book is for you.

“Stories of people who experience codependent relationships are not usually told. But they meet all the time. This book is for you if you believe that attractiveness in the eyes of men is your main value, or if you use sex as a tool to win a partner.” — Olesya Inevskaya, psychologist, blogger@psychology_lesya
