Lethal Lovers and Poisonous People

About the Book

ARE YOU INVOLVED IN A TOXIC RELATIONSHIP?

The symptoms vary from stomach pains to blinding headaches, from chronic backaches to severe colds…
The causes are varied—from a spouse who is withdrawing sexually, to a parent who is overly critical, to a lover who isn’t “ready” to commit, to a boss who is abusive…

There are periods of stress in every relationship, but psychological studies reveal that some relationships can reach poisonous levels of toxic emotions—and that our response to these stresses can be harmful to our emotional and physical health.

Are you involved in such a relationship? If so, what can you do about it? Lethal Lovers and Poisonous People shows you!
