In "LOVESHOCK" Dr. Stephen Gullo shares his groundbreaking insight into coping with the pain of heartache and learning to love again. Dr. Gullo compares the end of a love relationship to the loss of a loved one. He explains the six stages of loveshock: shock, grief, setting blame, resignation, rebuilding, and resolution. Almost everyone - rejector as well as rejectee - goes through these same stages of loveshock, but the time spent in each phase ("travelling time" Dr.Gullo calls it) varies from person to person. But "LOVESHOCK" goes far beyond simply describing love loss. This is an exciting new therapy that draws on Dr. Gullo's private practice, in which he has counseled hundreds of people through loveshock. Dr. Gullo provides a comfort and reassuring sense of control as he identifies and analyzes the emotional nature of love loss and recovery. He explains the common mistakes that recovering lovers make and helps readers to overcome their fear of new relationships. He explains how to establish the right relationship and how to know when you're ready to start over. "LOVESHOCK" provides a unique programme for mending the heart, letting go of the pain, and loving again.
