Description

Written by two clinical psychologists with nearly a century of combined experience, this book explains how people who suffer from depression, anxiety, or undue anger can overcome these difficulties by allowing the normal process of grieving to occur. • Provides a solid foundation for understanding anger, anxiety, and depression as well as a practical and solid approach for overcoming these difficulties • Examines the neurological factors associated with feelings, particularly sadness, and identifies the relational complications that arise when one experiences sadness • Describes the cultural and personal resistance to the experience of sadness that often compels people to keep their sadness "bottled up" • Explains how anger, anxiety, and depression can be prevented by accepting and experiencing sadness
