"The Journey from Abandonment to Healing" by Susan Anderson.

This book REALLY had an impact on my thinking. I got over a huge hump by reading this and considering everything in it. Eric recommended it (thank you!!!) and it has been a very important book to me.

It doesn't focus a lot on "why they left." It focuses on YOU throughout, on what you are going through and how it affects you physically and emotionally and what YOU can do to help yourself and be kinder to yourself.

I think when you are several months post-bomb you have to try to get off the "why did he/she leave" and "what did I do wrong" and be more present-minded, and this book is all about that.
