An engaging memoir written by a clinical therapist, Losing Me to be Loved by You, accompanies the author on her search for answers as to why too often she ended up in one painfully romantic relationship after another. Finding it nearly impossible to leave despite her involvement with unavailable, manipulative, or narcissistic types, she’d give away her true self in an effort to be loved. Yet, it wasn’t until enduring a relationship filled with the pain of narcissistic abuse that the author knew something needed to change—and that something needed to be her. From the formative years through her romantic life, the author courageously explores the patterns and behaviors of a woman longing to be loved and an often-misunderstood addiction; to love. In a captivating style that openly displays the power of vulnerability, this intimate and insightful journey shows us how the unhealed wounds of our past can affect the significant choices we make today.
