Publisher's Summary
If you grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you may recall your childhood as a time when your emotional needs were not met or dismissed—and you may have lingering feelings of anger, loneliness, betrayal, and abandonment. As an adult, you have fought hard to establish your own sense of self, and heal the wounds caused by your upbringing.
But what about other emotionally immature people (EIP) in your life? As an adult child of an emotionally immature parent (ACEIP), you may be particularly vulnerable to EIPs. If you're tired of being emotionally hijacked by EIPs, this handbook can help you avoid common traps, build confidence, and stand strong.
This guide provides solutions to help you manage relationships with any emotionally immature person. You'll find practical insights and explorations into the most common challenges ACEIPs face, and practical guidance to help set boundaries and establish healthier relationships. You'll learn to handle difficult interactions with EIPs, understand their responses, and transform your relationships.
With this handbook, you'll understand how EIPs function, shift your own perspective, and stand up for yourself.

Mandatory book for everyone
This book is a must mainly for people who lived close to Emotionally Immature people (family members, friends, colleagues etc).
The method and organization is amazing (sometimes dialogues with the psychoanalysis, and others with the CBT). Even who doesn't have EIPs in the family, for sure will relate to them externally. This book unmasks them and helps us to protect.

Brutally true and ruthlessly practical
While we are taught to love others as we love ourselves. At times, we need to remember to love ourselves as much as we love others, especially when they are EIPs and ACEIPs who are, sadly, incapable of reciprocality.

Incredibly empowering
I love this writer, she is one of the few that gives insight on how to manage difficult or abusive parents but who doesn’t encourage the extremes of estrangement, or resort to trite comments about forgiveness that gaslight survivors. This is number four in a series, the first book changed my perspective on so many things, this one is also good and set out around common questions that people bring to therapy, which is very practical and useful. Amazing how much clarity she brings to a complex topic which is a very common experience but which few psychologists seem to be able to address.

Everything you need to know
Clear, practical , easy to follow and full of aha moments. This book really encapsulated the confusion and bewilderment we feel when faced with a pattern of illogical and hurtful behaviour that comes from those we genuinely seek love and connection from. HOWEVER this book shows a path forward that allows for boundaries, limits , a sense of being an individual and the necessary explanations and examples to understand your own internal mindset. It gives you the freedom to understand what being authentic even is and takes away the fear of being your own individual.
