Limerence: The Psychopathology of Loving Too Much - Orly Miller

Descriere Limerence: The Psychopathology of Loving Too Much - Orly Miller

\nWhat happens when longing takes hold and won't let go? When the need for connection becomes obsession, and fantasy begins to blur with reality?\n \nThis book explores limerence, a complex and often misunderstood psychological state marked by intrusive thoughts, emotional dependency, and an intense longing for reciprocation. What begins as attraction can quickly spiral into fixation, projection, and the gradual unravelling of the self.\n \nThe author weaves together insights from psychology, neuroscience, mythology, and cultural analysis to examine limerence through clinical, emotional, symbolic, digital, spiritual, and relational lenses. Drawing on case studies, archetypal patterns, and original diagnostic frameworks, it reveals limerence as both a source of profound suffering and a window into deeper psychological truths.\n \nFor therapists, clinicians, and curious readers alike, this is a nuanced exploration of obsessive love and the psychological complexities that shape it.\n
