Download or read book Love Sick written by Frank Tallis and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, leading clinical psychologist, Dr Frank Tallis, explores our age-old preoccupation with love and in particular romantic love. Love is rarely described as a wholly pleasant experience and Tallis considers our experiences and descriptions of love and why the combinations of pleasure and pain, ecstasy and despair, rapture and grief have come to characterise what we mean when we speak about falling in love. Obsessive thoughts, erratic mood swings, insomnia, loss of appetite, recurrent and persistent images and impulses (irresistible urges to phone or text), superstitious or ritualistic compulsions (she loves me, she loves me not), inability to concentrate - so much so that it affects your work, delusion, (are his eyes really deep pools of oceanic azure?). Exhibiting just five or six of these symptoms is enough to merit a diagnosis of Major Depressive Episode, according to the recognized medical criteria. Drawing on the writings of poets, philosophers, songwriters, zoologists and scientists Tallis shows how throughout time - and particularly in the West, the metaphor of illness and specifically mental illness has been used to describe the state of being in love. And asks why it is that we continue to search out this kind of love, with the ecstasy seeming to blind us to the agony.

Download or read book Heartsick written by Jessie Stephens and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heartsick unpacks the destruction of love by following the true stories of three lives altered by a major heartbreak. I wrote this book for the person who doesn’t want to be told that this too shall pass. Not yet. Who wants to sit with it. And see it for what it is. Who wants to know they’re not alone. That their pain is at once unique and universal. Belonging to them and everyone. When we’re thrown into the chaos of heartsickness, we focus so much on the end. The fact we are now unloved seems so much more important than the reality that we once were. This book was born in the hours I’ve waited for men to message me back and who never did... In the years full of almost-relationships, I thought, “I cannot handle another rejection,” and then found myself turned down by someone I wasn’t even sure I liked. I wrote this book because I know what it is to feel fundamentally unlovable. I knew when I was looking for Ana, Patrick, and Claire that their stories had to be true, because within them would be nuances I’d never noticed before and realities I couldn’t have invented. I didn’t want to be limited by what I happened to know about love and loss. I wanted to learn from people as I wrote, injecting wisdom from different places and genders and ages into this book. Weaving together these three true stories, Jessie Stephens captures the painful but wholeheartedly universal experience of heartbreak. Deeply relatable, addictive to the very last page, and powerfully human, Heartsick reminds us that emotional pain can make us as it breaks us and that storytelling has the ultimate healing power. In the solitude that reading a book demands, one is forced to reflect on one’s own life. After all, every time we explore others, we’re mostly just exploring ourselves. These are their stories—Ana’s and Patrick’s and Claire’s. But it is also my story and our story. I trust within it you will find echoes of yourself.

Download or read book Love and Love Sickness written by John Money and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 1980-03-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently, the study of sex roles, sexual behavior, and the differences between the sexes came under the aegis of such disciplines as psychiatry, sociology, or medicine. Love and Love Sickness lays the groundwork for an emerging, independent area of study, that of sexology. It is the newest, most provocative work yet from John Money, a medical psychologist whose distinguished contributions to sex research have gained him an international reputation. Money leads the reader through a fascinating array of topics relating to differences between the sexes, from, as he says, "making a baby to learning mathematics." Among his subjects are the behavior of the sexes as seen throughout history; irreducible, derivative, and arbitrary sex roles; how men and women differ in aggression and dominance, parenting, and in mathematical, verbal, and praxic reasoning ; principles of erotic sexuality; the pathology of love; sexual taboos in Western culture; pornography; and, in an appendix, the treatment of sex offenders. Drawing upon history, ethnology, psychology, sociology, and law, as well as physiology, endocrinology, embryology, genetics, and host of other fields, Money proposes a new basis for understanding sexual behavior. He rejects the older analytic devices of motivation theory and the dichotomies of mind/body and nature/nurture to offer instead a theory that acknowledges a number of variables contributing to individual and collective behavior. Professionals and students in sex education, mental health, psychiatry, and clinical psychology, human biology, and counseling will find Love and Love Sickness, like all of John Money's work, necessary reading. It is also a book for the educated layperson, who will find it replete with insights into the realm of human sexuality.
Download or read book Love Sick written by Jessica N. Watkins and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2009-02-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "At some point in her life, almost every girl falls in love with the wrong man..." Latrice, Victoria, and Lyric are lost in Chicago's love diversions. Victoria seems to have a handle on her recent break up with her long-term beau, Taij. Rather than crying into her pillow every night, she's in the arms of one new piece after the next; turning her rage into sexual expression that earns her constant potential with the luxury of no-strings attached. Victoria's new control of her heart terribly clashes with Vince's undeniable interest in being more than her next booty call. However, Victoria's refusal to commit does not keep Vince from trying desperately to blow up the wall that she has rebuilt around her heart. As Victoria runs from Vince's attempts to woo her, Latrice has done the unthinkable: fell in love with the booty-call. After the unfortunate conclusion of her affairs with Damion and Tunde, Amiel was the perfect replacement; except for the pregnant wife and kid. Now she's ready for him to man up; to prove that he truly loves her by giving her the commitment and relationship that she needs, or move on. As Latrice dreams of commitment and marriage to the unavailable Amiel, Lyric and Bradley are preparing for the real deal. As Bradley and Lyric begin their happily ever after in the Beverly community of Illinois, Bradley is under the impression that he has chosen the perfect wife-to-be. Lyric struggles with this label as she figures out a way to quietly end the on-going love affair between her and Veronica; an affair that she has successfully perpetrated to her fiance as a simple platonic friendship. This madness entitled Love Sick is only the beginning of this erotic tale. A sea of characters add their own two cents of drama and donate to the shocking and heartrending end of this cycle of affairs, obsession, and despair. With insertions of tantalizing eroticism, Love Sick is your ideal entertaining, emotive, and erotic daily retreat.
