After both her husband and daughter died in a three-month period, clinical psychologist Susan Powers, Ph.D., learned she had to be proactive and single-minded in her attempts to recover by matching the ruthlessness of grief with her own zealous action.
Through the combination of her moving, personal memoir and a professional, clinical perspective, Dr. Powers offers a roadmap for finding your own way through your darkest hours. Ruthless Grieving is filled with emotional wisdom as well as practical suggestions to guide anyone through deep loss and grief, including a myriad of tools to help you deal with: - initial "shock and awe" - feeling lost and angry - obsessing about the person who died - suffering depressive sadness - dealing with survivor guilt - making the journey to acceptance of this loss - reinvesting in life without them
