I have analyzed three autobiographies using relevant research and two theories which are coping strategies and system theory. My results indicate that researchers are not united on what co-dependence means. The result also shows that regardless of the relationship you have with the person with addiction, the signs are the same, but they are described in different ways. The result is also clear that the people who suffer from co-dependency problems are in need of help but that there is a lack of information that makes them not know where to turn. (Less)
