Seeking to understand the pain and confusion she felt, Blatchley began exploring the psychology and neuroscience of bereavement. Why does grief last so long and hurt so much? How do we come to terms with loss? In Sorrow's Long Road, Blatchley interweaves an engaging and reader-friendly look at the research on grief with her powerful personal narrative. Beginning with the day of her husband's death, she traces the questions that loss raised and the answers that science provides. Blatchley examines the psychology of love and attachment, detailing how we bond with others and what happens when those bonds are broken. She considers the storm of emotions that the bereaved experience, as well as both the physical and psychological effects of grieving. Blatchley maps out how we adapt to the changes that loss brings and find a new identity afterward. In addition to her own experiences, she shares the stories of other people who have suffered a loss and struggled to recover, illustrating how grief changes over time. Accessibly written and deeply empathetic, Sorrow's Long Road humanizes the science, showing how psychology and neuroscience can help us make sense of the darkest times in our lives"-- Provided by publisher  0aPrint books.2local94 2lcccBOOKS c608176d608176 00102lcc4070aAUbAUcGENd2025-12-24l0oRC455.4 .L67 2025pAU00000000021116r2025-12-24 12:25:28v715.00w2025-12-24yBOOKS
