About this audiobook
If you grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable, or selfish parent, you may recall your childhood as a time when your emotional needs were not met or dismissed-and you may have lingering feelings of anger, loneliness, betrayal, and abandonment. As an adult, you have fought hard to establish your own sense of self, and heal the wounds caused by your upbringing.
But what about other emotionally immature people (EIP) in your life? As an adult child of an emotionally immature parent (ACEIP), you may be particularly vulnerable to EIPs. If you're tired of being emotionally hijacked by EIPs, this handbook can help you avoid common traps, build confidence, and stand strong.
This guide provides solutions to help you manage relationships with any emotionally immature person. You'll find practical insights and explorations into the most common challenges ACEIPs face, and practical guidance to help set boundaries and establish healthier relationships. You'll learn to handle difficult interactions with EIPs, understand their responses, and transform your relationships.
With this handbook, you'll understand how EIPs function, shift your own perspective, and stand up for yourself.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Phenomenal! I’ve read the author’s previous titles. Every one was a light bulb of recognition and relief, this one even more so. With this book’s vantage point, I feel like I finally have the answer to the question of “Why on earth does she act like that again and again and again despite repeated rational conversations to try to bridge a massive gap, connect and build a long-lasting healthy relationship?!??”

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The first book I read from Dr. Gibson was the Adult children of emotionally immature parents. And it was everything I needed. It was eye opening, mind blowing and healing - all in once. The book Disentangling from EI People is no different. If you think that you encounter this type of people you will benefit from listening / reading this book. I highly appreciate the real life examples with explanations and advices on how to take back the control over your own life and emotions. It's a go to book number one for recovering people pleasers. 5 stars no less
