"Many women [and men] who love too much also eat too much or spend
too much. Addictions aren't discrete entities; they overlap in their
physical and emotional roots. In fact, recovery from one addiction may
actually cause another addiction to accelerate.
"Fortunately, the same steps for recovery apply equally well to all addictions." - Robin Norwood in Daily Meditations for Women Who Love Too Much
Many
codependents of addicts find that their co-addiction is also an
addiction. Enabling behaviors that are hurtful for one person is
hurtful for the other.
