I and my pain. How to deal with strong emotions and accept what you cannot change

Sometimes pain falls on us, which cannot be foreseen. Loss of work, friendship or loved one, cruel betrayal, violence, incurable illness or global disaster.

All these events do not pass without a trace - they change our lives forever. And even if others say that “you need to be strong”, and “anxiety and depression is ashamed”, we must learn to withstand strong experiences in order to move on.

This book is a therapeutic guide to self -help that explains:
- How to learn to take painful events and related feelings,
- What is emotional avoidance and how to work with it,
- How to heal the pain from a long injury or relieve anxiety about the uncertainty of the future,
- And what to do when the problem is too great and you feel that you can’t cope with its scale.
