How to overcome the trauma of lack of support and closeness in childhood
Do you have a hard time communicating with your parents? Feeling neglected and rejected?
If you grew up with an emotionally immature and self-centered parent, you probably built up anger and loneliness; feeling betrayed and abandoned. Perhaps you remember childhood as a time when your feelings were ignored and the responsibilities you took on were disproportionate to your years. Here you will learn how to heal your wounds and move on.
In this landmark book, clinical psychologist Lindsey Gibson describes the destructive nature of emotionally immature parenting. When emotionally immature people raise children, they not only pass on their neurotic patterns to them, they inflict damage on them that goes beyond the boundaries of emotional life and may even affect cognitive development. You will understand how such parents make their children feel neglected and discover ways to overcome the pain and insecurity that have haunted you since your earliest years. By understanding the cause of difficult relationships with your parents, you will establish control over your reactions to them and know how to avoid further disappointments. By rediscovering your true self, you will be able to create positive new relationships upon which to build your new, better life.
