As human beings, we have an insatiable need to hold on to things; even things that continue to hurt us. Though we know what we do is unhealthy, we remain in our pain for reasons we choose to repress/suppress, along with the oppression of outside influences imposed upon us. Yet, in our brokenness, God holds on to us. Profoundly intense, no-holds-bar, revealing, explanations, descriptors and examples of pathological alienation and the effects it has on individuals based on temperament, this book offers insight, healing and survival strategies for victims.
