I read, it's kinda my thing. I've read all the popular books for dealing with A together.

So what if your WW is really your STBXW? What's a good book to help me out in trying to heal my own pain without the help of a partner?

I have Love Warrior but haven't read it yet. Is there something better?

"Radical Acceptance" by Tara Burch(sp?) was really helpful for me in trying to come to terms with him not being the person I thought he was.

"The Journey from Abandonment to Healing" is very frequently suggested. I haven't read it myself, but I thought it worth mentioning just based on what others here have said about it.

The book that was most healing for me was "When Things Fall Apart" - Pema Chödrön

I like "Rebuilding When Your Relationship Ends" by Bruce Fisher. I am just starting "The Journey from Abandonment to Healing" and loving the first chapter.

Seconded.

I've never met a sociopath I didn't like.
