Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect
Autor Jonice Webb Christine Muselloen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2012
Running on Empty is the first self-help book about Emotional Neglect: an invisible force from your childhood which you can't see, but may be affecting you profoundly to this day. It is about what didn't happen in your childhood, what wasn't said, and what cannot be remembered.
Do you sometimes feel as if you're just going through the motions in life? Are you good at looking and acting as if you're fine, but secretly feel lonely and disconnected? Perhaps you have a fine life and are good at your work, but somehow it's just not enough to make you happy.
If so, you are not alone. The world is full of people who have an innate sense that something is wrong with them. Who feel they live on the outside looking in, but have no explanation for their feeling and no way to put it into words. Who blame themselves for not being happier.
If you are one of these people, you may fear that you are not connected enough to your spouse, or that you don't feel pleasure or love as profoundly as others do. Perhaps when you do experience strong emotions, you have difficulty understanding or tolerating them. You may drink too much, or eat too much, or risk too much, in an attempt to feel something good.
In over twenty years of practicing psychology, many people have arrived in Jonice Webb's office, driven by the threat of divorce or the onset of depression, or by loneliness, and said, "Something is missing in me."
Running on Empty will give you clear strategies for how to heal, and offers a special chapter for mental health professionals. In the world of human suffering, this book is an Emotional Smart Bomb meant to eradicate the effects of an invisible enemy.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Mariana Borza a dat nota:
Am inceput prin a citi articole pe site-ul autoarei (Dr. Jonice Webb) si a inceput sa ma intereseze foarte mult conceptul de neglijare emotionala. Dupa ce am primit cartea am citit-o in 2 zile, nu voiam sa ma dezlipesc de ea. Nu sunt genul usor de impresionat, si nici nu citesc de regula carti pe subiectul psihologiei, emotiilor sau self-therapy, insa ceea ce descrie Dr. Webb mi s-a parut genial. E o idee noua in psihologie aceea a neglijarii emotionale in copilarie, a ceea ce "nu s-a intamplat". Explica foarte bine cum se prezinta acele lipsuri in copilarie si cum pot influenta mai tarziu persoana ca adult. Recomand cartea aceasta oamenilor care se simt "pierduti", care s-au "diagnosticat" singuri ca avand anxietate sociala, depresie sau altele de genul, oamenilor care au probleme in a-si exprima emotiile, cat si altor categorii. Cartea aceasta poate aduce la lumina multe lucruri care nu s-au intamplat pentru noi cand eram copii, dar care ar fi trebuit sa se intample.

Descriere
Running on Empty is the first self-help book about Emotional Neglect: an invisible force from your childhood which you can't see, but may be affecting you profoundly to this day. It is about what didn't happen in your childhood, what wasn't said, and what cannot be remembered.
Do you sometimes feel as if you're just going through the motions in life? Are you good at looking and acting as if you're fine, but secretly feel lonely and disconnected? Perhaps you have a fine life and are good at your work, but somehow it's just not enough to make you happy.
If so, you are not alone. The world is full of people who have an innate sense that something is wrong with them. Who feel they live on the outside looking in, but have no explanation for their feeling and no way to put it into words. Who blame themselves for not being happier.
If you are one of these people, you may fear that you are not connected enough to your spouse, or that you don't feel pleasure or love as profoundly as others do. Perhaps when you do experience strong emotions, you have difficulty understanding or tolerating them. You may drink too much, or eat too much, or risk too much, in an attempt to feel something good.
In over twenty years of practicing psychology, many people have arrived in Jonice Webb's office, driven by the threat of divorce or the onset of depression, or by loneliness, and said, "Something is missing in me."
Running on Empty will give you clear strategies for how to heal, and offers a special chapter for mental health professionals. In the world of human suffering, this book is an Emotional Smart Bomb meant to eradicate the effects of an invisible enemy.
