This book provides many down-to-earth suggestions to rectify feelings of abandonment prevalent in some segments of society more than others. The book contains tips on dealing with, and building intimate relationships. This book is the product of ten years of in-depth interviews, clinical experience both in personal therapy, marital and family therapy, with many individuals who feel abondoned. This self-help book is written in a language intended for the average reader. Its content is based on informal ethnographic study of people who describe themselves as intensely lonely. The life cycle was traced in an effort to locate the significant life events which were held in common by each of these individuals, including the emotional factors leading up to the deep seated feelings of loneliness.

The purpose of this book is to help identify a type of loneliness which goes well beyond the feelings that an common adult person would experience in the average circumstances. It is important to distinguish aloneness from the very deep feelings of emptiness, loneliness and voidness, experienced at a deep enough level of loneliness that the feelings are closer to feelings of abandonment. "Feeling of abandonment" is the main thread running through this book. People with abandonment issues typically experience deep feelings of voidness, confusion, aloneness, and emptiness (James, Beverly, 1984). Abandonment occurs any time a person feels left wothout the nurturance, care and love that is needed to exist as a person.
