How shame ruins our mental health
We're taught shame afflicts wrongdoers, but actually it punishes the innocent, and negatively affects our mental health - which is already in crisis. Shame is tangled up with anxiety and depression, and we need to better understand how we're deceived. The book explains how shame works, tells shame-recovery stories, strives to reverse the injustice - and offers recovery strategies.
You can now read the prologue, the opening chapters of 'The Shame Deception', and 'Ben's' story, under the 'Samples' heading.
