Dark Matter eLiquid
Enjoy the wonderful flavor of our latest VapeSafe eLiquid - Dark Matter.
Dark Matter tastes like German chocolate cake. For those of you who have not had the fortunate to try a piece German chocolate cake recently, this is a great way to experience the flavor without getting any of the calories. German chocolate cake is a layered cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Traditionally sweet baking chocolate is used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake. The robust filling and topping is a caramel made with egg yolks and evaporated milk. Once the caramel is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred into the mixture. Finally, rich chocolate frosting is spread around the sides of the cake to hold in the filling.
Dark Matter eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of German chocolate cake. Dark Matter eLiquid delivers plumes of vapor and rich chocolatey flavor that you'll want to enjoy again and again. Try Dark Matter today!

Summary: "Semi-applicable in some cases, extremely general in all"
The intro to the book had me, like many others, thinking, "Oh, hey! That sounds kind of like me!" However, upon delving into the material, I realized exactly what she did: she included a broad enough spectrum to create a point of relation for all people. In one of the sections, she notes that you were either super responsible, super irresponsible, or somewhere in between. Which leaves... no one out, ACoA or not. The rest of the book contained a variety of overgeneralizations spoon-fed to the reader in a, "This is what you experienced. This is what happened. This is what is happening now. This is what will happen to you" way, which is a headache for someone who is sitting here disagreeing with most of it. However, that's not to say I didn't relate to certain aspects, but, then, who wouldn't? For example, one of the points was that ACoA dislike situations they cannot control. Basic research into fundamental psychology, however, reveals that this holds true for ALL humans. In studies of mice, those subject to shocks over which they had no control were more susceptible to increased health risks, higher stress, and general unhappiness, and these principles are the same in humans. It comes as no surprise, then, that ACoA dislike situations over which they have no control - NOBODY likes situations over which they have no control. I am willing to acknowledge that maybe I am simply trying to not fit into a mold, but really, when you can only agree with the most general, universally-applicable bullet points in the list... It makes you wonder. This book has useful information in it, but it's not a book for ACoA. It's simply an elementary treatise on basic psychology, told with the tone of a petulant child.

Summary: "Good starter book for ACOAs"
If you have already read "Struggle for Intimacy" you may wish to skip this one. It repeats a lot of the same information. But if you are an ACOA who is just beginning their recovery this would be a great place to start. It will help you understand why you do some of what you do and how you begin to live a more healthy emotional life.

Summary: "Don't let ANYONE stop you from checking this out!"
Why believe me? Because if the critics are right and I'm wrong, you've only tried one more thing and it only cost you ten bucks. This and the Lifeskills book are therapeutic dynamite!
There are sections on what happened while you grew up and what is happening now, but section 3, "Breaking the Cycle," raises this book head and shoulders above all the knock-offs that followed it. (Note: The edition with the pink cover is an old edition that has no section 3. Be sure to get the "Expanded Edition" with the yellow/gray cover.)
Therapists have a financial interest in keeping you coming back. If you recover and become functional, they lose you as a revenue stream. Moreover, a doctor told me that the medical students she knew who went into psychiatry did so "to straighten their own problems out." Most of them know nothing of the ACA syndrome, let alone how to fix someone who has it.
If you believe that a "higher power" and the twelve steps & disease model can save you, visit the ACA "world service organization" and observe pathetically sick ACAs with classic symptoms and behaviors. As the author points out, being an ACA is not a disease; it is a fact of one's history.
Not one of the three one-star reviews has a speck of evidence that those liars even read the book. A couple others said that the book is too short or too simple; for them I would recommend War and Peace or Advanced Differential Equations. :-) Check it out and decide for yourself!
I suggest highlighting the parts that resonate strongly with you because that makes for a quick review if you keep your copy. If no part of this book hits you like a freight train, then you are not an ACA.
