Summary
Do you sometimes feel as if you're just going through the motions in life? Are you good at looking and acting as if you're fine, but secretly feel lonely and disconnected? If so, you are not alone. The world is full of people who have an innate sense that something is wrong with them - who feel they live on the outside looking in, but have no explanation for this feeling and no way to put it into words.
If you are one of these people, you may fear that you are not connected enough to your spouse, or that you don't feel pleasure or love as profoundly as others do. You may drink too much, or eat too much, or risk too much, in an attempt to feel something good.
Running on Empty will give you clear strategies for how to heal, and offers a special chapter for mental-health professionals. In the world of human suffering, this book is an emotional smart bomb meant to eradicate the effects of an invisible enemy.

Great book
The person performance is not fluid but the content is exceptional. The ideas and findings by Dr Webb will receive resonate with the majority.

An interesting concept
An interesting concept. Book veers between over simplistic and over explanatory.
Certainly has great merit and very useful. Could easily be better edited but certainly a useful learning tool.

great book awful narration
I thoroughly enjoyed hearing about this writers research and her advice on this very important topic. it was however very poorly presented as the reading was robotic and most odd.My apologies for possible hurt feelings but I have to say it like it is

Interesting book
I thoroughly liked the book. It was so relieving hearing about the things that did not happen also has a big impact on children. I found the person reading the book sounded a bit robotic. It annoyed me to begin with until I got used to it.

A tool of self-compassion
Thanks to this book I really started to feel some self-compassion, it explains so well the mechanisms that make me miserable that I felt ....wow I should really be more understanding for myself, taking all that mess into consideration.
If this book helped me in anything, that would be it - I am less hard on myself for not being perfect.

eye opening
I needed this so badly, thanks so much Dr Webb for giving this a name, I spent my 38 years wondering what was wrong, it feels amazing to have an answer and clarity on this.
