About this audiobook

Severing a cherished relationship is one of the most painful experiences in life-and cutting those emotional ties to a loved one can feel almost like ending an addiction. Up till now, people recovering from other problems were able to get real help-like AA and rehab-while those struggling in the aftermath of traumatic breaks dealt with platitudes and friends insisting they should "get over it already." But now Exaholics Anonymous treats getting over an ex like kicking a chemical habit. Written by counselor and therapist Dr. Lisa Bobby, Exaholics offers meaningful support and advice to anyone trapped in the obsessive pain of a broken, or dying, attachment. She helps the brokenhearted heal, showing them, on a deep level, how to develop a conceptual framework for their experience, understand the emotional processes at work inside themselves, find the path to recovery, and free themselves of shame, injured ego, and remorse. In-depth case studies of others' journeys will illuminate the way to future happiness.

Exaholics.is a great listen for those struggling to understand why they can't stop thinking about an ex. It shares the psychology behind the difficulty and makes you understand why you do what you do. Highly recommend!

Spends way too much time discussing the issue vs solutions.
