From a leading voice on recovering from toxic relationships, Whole Again offers a deeply insightful guide to getting back to your "old self" again—in order to truly heal and move on.

Jackson MacKenzie has helped millions of people in their struggle to understand the experience of toxic relationships. His first book, Psychopath Free, explained how to identify and survive the immediate situation. In this highly anticipated new book, he guides readers on what to do next—how to fully heal from abuse to find love and acceptance for the self and others.

Through his close work with—and deep connection to—thousands of survivors of abusive relationships, Jackson discovered that most survivors have symptoms of trauma long after the relationship is over. These range from feelings of numbness and emptiness to depression, perfectionism, substance abuse, and many more. But he's also found that it is possible to work through these symptoms and find love on the other side, and this book shows how. Through a practice of mindfulness, introspection, and exercises using specific tools, readers learn to identify the protective self they've developed and uncover the core self, so they can finally move on to live a full and authentic life—to once again feel light, free, and whole, and ready to love again.

This book addresses and provides crucial guidance on topics and conditions like complex PTSD, narcissistic abuse, avoidant personality disorder, codependency, core wounding, toxic shame, borderline personality disorder, and many more.

Whole Again offers hope and multiple strategies to anyone who has survived a toxic relationship, as well as anyone suffering the effects of a breakup involving lying, cheating, and other forms of abuse—to release old wounds and safely let the love back inside where it belongs.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Whole Again by Jackson MacKenzie is praised for its empathetic approach to healing emotional pain and trauma. Reviewers commend the book for its accessible and compassionate guidance on addressing deeply buried feelings and achieving self-acceptance. Through a blend of personal insights and practical advice, it offers a supportive framework for those dealing with co-dependency, addiction, and personality disorders, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking personal growth and recovery.
