In this updated second edition, the author presents a sensible,
easy-to-follow method for changing the course of one's
relationships. Anyone who has struggled with balancing his or her
own needs and desires with those of the "other" person will
appreciate and benefit from the easy-to-implement suggestions. Its
format combines psychoeducation, personal anecdotes, anonymous
clinical case vignettes, and skills-building exercises. Working
with individuals and groups on this topic of loss of self in
others, author Nancy L. Johnston identifies four areas of recovery
work that can help an individual cultivate a healthy self: facing
Illusions, detaching, setting healthy boundaries, and developing
spirituality. Emotional over-involvement in relationships can throw
even otherwise well-functioning people out of balance - thoughts
become focused on the other person in ways that are unhealthy for
both the individual and the relationship - commonly leading to
feelings of anxiety, agitation, helplessness, depression, anger,
and resentment. Johnson provides a detailed description of ways to
turn this self-destructive cycle around with current best practices
and research data, and includes self-assessments and experiential
exercises designed to address essential aspects of self-awareness,
distortions in thinking, communication style and tools, and
spirituality. "Disentangling" is the process of creating enough
emotional space between oneself and another person in order to
better see the realities of any relationship and make healthier
conscious decisions about it.
