This book is based on years of research-studies of people moving, adults returning to school, people whose jobs were eliminated, retirment, non-events like not having a baby, not getting promoted. These studies resulted in the development of a generic framework for understanding any type of transition. Based on this research, Overwhelmed presents a step-by-step approach to turning overwhelming transitions into challenging experiences. By systemically sizing up transitions and one's resources for dealing with them, people can learn how to build on their strengths, cut their losses, and even grow in the process.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Nancy Schlossberg's warm, practical, and constructive approach will help anyone feeling overwhelmed (as all of us occasionally are) by events we hoped for, by disasters we hoped to avoid, or by "sleeper" changes we didn't anticipate.--Carol Tavris, Ph.D., coauthor of <i>Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me): Why We Justify Foolish Beliefs, Bad Decisions, and Hurtful Acts<i><br><br>Nancy Schlossberg's Overwhelmed: Coping with Life's Ups and Downs is a combination self-help book and personal improvement tool-kit.
