Exaholics

Breaking Your Addiction to an Ex Love

By: Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby LMFT BCC

Narrated by: Jennifer Jill Araya

Severing a cherished relationship is one of the most painful experiences in life - and cutting those emotional ties to a loved one can feel almost like ending an addiction. Up till now, people recovering from other problems were able to get real help - like AA and rehab - while those struggling in the aftermath of traumatic breaks dealt with platitudes and friends insisting they should "get over it already". But now Exaholics Anonymous treats getting over an ex like kicking a chemical habit.

Written by counselor and therapist Dr. Lisa Bobby, Exaholics offers meaningful support and advice to anyone trapped in the obsessive pain of a broken, or dying, attachment. She helps the brokenhearted heal, showing them, on a deep level, how to develop a conceptual framework for their experience, understand the emotional processes at work inside themselves, find the path to recovery, and free themselves of shame, injured ego, and remorse. In-depth case studies of others' journeys will illuminate the way to future happiness.

You might just NEED this.

I was struggling with a really bad breakup — for six months. No signs of me emerging. I usually roll my eyes at self-help things like this, but all I can say is the stories that resonated and way she breaks down everything that heartbroken people feel and experience was a great journey. It is short. It’s worth it. It really helped me. Finally able to get out of a really bad phase.

AMAZING

I have had immense past struggles! I listened to this book in 2 days while still being able to complete tasks around the house during areas that didn’t apply to me. The areas that did, life changing! Highly recommend.

Extremely Helpful

I don’t have the words to even describe how this book has helped me in my journey. The emotions I didn’t have the words to describe were so elegantly used in this book. I am very grateful for all the time and effort spent to write this book by all involved.
From the bottom of my heart, Thank you!

Best Book

This is the best and most helpful book I have ever read! The information in this book helped tremendously through the hardest time of my life.

Amazing

Amazing, very honest insight into a problem that I have struggled with my entire adult life. The scientific way a breakup is explained appealed to me immensely. I cannot overstate how life changing the content of this book is.
