Why read it?
1 author picked Emotional Blackmail as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I've read this book at least three times through—and when I was working through a specific jealousy situation with a childhood friend as an adult, I hired the author, Dr. Susan Forward, to work with me directly.
That's how much I trust what's in these pages. This book is my bible for moving relationships of every kind—friendships, family, romantic, professional—out of toxic and dysfunctional dynamics and into healthy ones. I recommend it to absolutely anyone who will listen.
From Kitty's list on surviving jealousy in an open relationship, without white-knuckling it.
