Fear of Intimacy: How to Stop Defending Yourself and Start Loving

The human psyche is arranged mercifully: we forget too unpleasant and painful situations and emotions in order to live normally. However, normal does not mean happy. It is difficult to see the beauty of the world and hard to make acquaintances with new people behind a high fence.
Danish psychotherapist Ilse Sand explains through real-life examples how different forms of psychological defense do not help us but, on the contrary, hinder us from living a full life and how we can get rid of them. After reading this book, you will understand how what you were told in childhood and youth can influence your actions and decisions today. Perhaps you will realize the hidden reasons for your experiences and finally allow your relatives and loved ones to become truly close and dear people to you.
This book, of course, will not replace a psychologist for you, but it will help you take a step towards people and your own happiness.
