Sorry, the audio kind of sucks. This is a 10-minute excerpt from my recent seminar, The 9 Stage Self-Love Deficit Disorder (Codependency) Recovery Model. In this video, I focus on the Self-Love Deficit Disorder and Self-Love Abundance Pyramids. These two pyramids are the underpinnings of my theoretical and practical work.

The Self-Love Deficit (SLDD) Pyramid graphically illustrates the multi-dimensional aspects of the problem. As I wrote in my book, The Human Magnet Syndrome: Why We Love People who Hurt Us and my recent seminars, SLDD is a symptom of deeper and more fundamental problems. This is crucial to understand, because to overcome SLDD, one must not waste their time on what I call “band-aid” treatment or therapy, which spends time on the surface problems, the symptoms, and neglects to resolve the actual cause of the disorder.

SLDD, formerly known as “codependency,” is caused by attachment trauma. This causes core shame and pathological loneliness, which creates a need to self-medicate. Codependency Addiction is the result, which ultimately causes the symptom of SLDD.
