3.5
This book was eye-opening and really helped me understand and categorize some of my emotions and how I react/respond to things, especially in response to what I now know was a neglectful upbringing.
What I did not like was the detailed trauma/case study the author went into for some of these examples. It may be beneficial detail to a psychologist but I was disturbed by a majority of the ones that I read and did not need those details to comprehend the points the author was making.
