Sample Book Insights:

#1 The first fear is abandonment, which is the fear that someone will leave you forever. This is a primal fear that we experience as children, and it stems from the fact that our survival depends on maintaining an attachment to our primary caretaker.

#2 The grief process is similar to that of a death, but it stems from the circumstances that led up to the abandonment, not from the feelings of inadequacy that often accompany it.

#3 The Abandonment Syndrome is the anguish experienced by those who have lost love, and the courage to go on believing in life and in their own capacity for love. It is not limited to those who are able to succeed in their relationships, but can be found in the fragments of unlived life, unreached potential, and unfulfilled dreams.

#4 The five steps of the Abandonment Recovery Program are: identify your underlying wound of abandonment, take action to heal it, gain new information, identify unfinished business from the past, and practice hands-on exercises for improving your life.
