Discover the truth behind your obsession and how to finally break free for good.
Few experiences are as consuming as limerence. It can erode your confidence, destabilise your life, and leave you feeling disconnected from yourself, yet it is rarely acknowledged or understood.
In Letting Go of Limerence, counsellor and author Sophie Hession blends psychological insight with lived experience to explain what limerence really is and why it feels so intense. With clarity and compassion, she guides you through the beliefs, patterns, and emotional wounds that keep you trapped while offering practical steps to break the cycle.
Inside you'll discover:
- What limerence truly is and why it feels like love
- How your brain becomes hooked on the highs and lows
- The role of self-esteem, the inner child, and unmet emotional needs
- How to recognise triggers and manage intrusive thoughts
- The truth about LOs (limerent objects) and unconscious projections
- Ways to rebuild self-worth, identity, and emotional balance
- How to detach, heal, and move forward
- Exercises and therapeutic strategies for lasting change
Whether you are experiencing limerence, recovering, or reflecting on your emotional patterns, this book will help you reclaim your power, rebuild your sense of self, and create space for genuine, lasting love.
