Book excerpt: Are you still stuck with the dysfunctional coping strategies you learned as a child? Adults who grew up in an alcoholic or otherwise dysfunctional home often adopt behaviors to deal with the Chaos and neglect around them -- behaviors that no longer work for them as adults. Repressing spontaneity, over-controlling, reacting impulsively from fear, and rejecting our own playfulness are just some the coping mechanisms that become obsolete and destructive when carried into adult life. Author Megan LeBoutillier grew up in an alcoholic home, and in Little Miss Perfect she shows how any Adult Child can move from the of helpless victim into a healthier, empowered stance of independence and self-love. Her guide to self-healing offers hands-on exercises that include: -- Journal writing -- Special stress management for ACOAs -- Dream work -- Body awareness -- Affirmations and Visualizations Filled with these and other recovery tools and insights, Little Miss Perfect is a compassionate handbook for recovering people who are ready to refashion the world of the past to suit their present needs.
