Growing Up Too Fast (eBook, ePUB)

A Recovery Workbook for Parentified Adults

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Did you grow up feeling more like the parent than the child? Were you responsible for managing your family's emotions, household tasks, or your siblings' care when you should have been free to just be a kid?

The Parentified Adult Recovery Workbook offers a comprehensive path to healing from the lasting impacts of childhood parentification. This evidence-based workbook guides adults who grew up too fast through a transformative journey of recognition, grief, and reclamation.

Inside this workbook, you'll discover:

Understanding parentification and recognizing your specific childhood roles

Practical exercises for processing grief and healing developmental wounds

Tools for reparenting yourself and building self-compassion

Strategies for breaking free from compulsive responsibility and over-functioning

Guidance for setting boundaries with family members without guilt

Techniques for healing your nervous system and releasing chronic stress

Methods for reclaiming your authentic identity beyond being helpful

Ways to build reciprocal relationships and allow yourself to receive care

This workbook includes:

Self-assessment tools to identify parentification patterns

Body-based exercises for releasing stored trauma

Boundary-setting scripts for difficult family conversations

Values clarification exercises to distinguish authentic desires from obligations

Community-building strategies for long-term recovery support

Integration practices connecting all aspects of healing

If you constantly put others first, struggle to rest without guilt, feel responsible for everyone's emotions, or don't know who you are beyond being needed, this workbook offers practical guidance for healing. Based on established therapeutic approaches including Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, attachment research, and somatic healing, each chapter builds progressively toward sustainable change.

Recovery from parentification is possible. You can learn to meet your own needs, build balanced relationships, and create a life centered on your authentic self rather than endless caretaking.
