Healing Heart (Part 1 of 2) - Dr Donna - CODA Speaker

Dr. Donna explains that love addiction is a natural consequence of untreated codependency, unlike other addictions which serve as distractions. They detail the five core symptoms of codependency: self-esteem issues, distorted reality, problems with moderation, unmet adult needs, and lack of self-containment through boundaries. Dr. Donna emphasizes that recovery involves actively practicing these principles, even when uncomfortable, and offers practical advice for navigating relationships and avoiding relapse.
