The Rescuer's Trap. How Not to Lose Yourself in Relationships and Stop Giving More Than You Get

Mary Lamia and Marilyn Krieger, world experts in the field of relationship psychology, are convinced: by selflessly rescuing another, you lose yourself. In their book, they talk about the common rescuer syndrome — the white knight, the one who sacrifices... themselves for their partner, causing harm not only to themselves but also to their loved one. This book will help you understand why you attract needy and unfulfilled partners that you have to lead, and how to create relationships based on healthy attachment, without total control and guilt. Previously, the book was published under the title 'The Rescuer Syndrome: How to Heal Relationships in Which You Give More Than You Get.'
