Publisher Description
Prescriptive and unique, Emotional First Aid is essential reading for anyone looking to become more resilient, build self-esteem, and let go of the hurts and hang-ups that are holding them back.
We all sustain emotional wounds. Failure, guilt, rejection, and loss are as much a part of life as the occasional scraped elbow. But while we typically bandage a cut or ice a sprained ankle, our first aid kit for emotional injuries is not just understocked—it’s nonexistent.
Fortunately, there is such a thing as mental first aid for battered emotions. Drawing on the latest scientific research and using real-life examples, practicing psychologist Guy Winch, Ph.D. offers specific step-by-step treatments that are fast, simple, and effective.

A must read, and a most have
When I needed it the most, this book helped me to find and understand what just happened to me, when I experienced an emotional and psychological event after my ex moved on. I was devastated, but couldn't understand or comprehend why, and why I couldn't keep thinking about her and about everything we had. It was a nightmare, a living hell, my self-esteem went on a spiral nose diving. This book helped me to understand why I felt that way, it gave me the tools and treatment to overcome and heal the emotional wound and psychological trauma. Every page feels like the book was talking to me. Thank you Dr Guy Winch for this book. It helped me to be my self again. You are the best.
