Coping mechanisms

-

Although it may sound like a self help book, Lifeshocks by Sophie Sabbage (author of The Cancer Whisperer) describes how to cope with “collision points between life as we perceive it and life as it actually is”, using the writer’s experience of various traumas (including cancer, bereavemen­t and sexual assault). It reads like a memoir, but is also helpful on on how to use difficult times to strengthen one’s resolve.
