Everyone experiences rejection in some form. Some experience so much rejection that they become Rejection Junkies. This book helps you identify, isolate, and eliminate the root cause of most people's problems. This is not band aid therapy. We don't treat the symptoms of anger, depression, obsessions, etc. This book attacks the underlying root cause of why people "behave" the way they do. There are two kinds of rejection, overt and covert. Some people have been covertly rejected at conception, i.e. an "accident" or an "unwanted" pregnancy. Some experience rejection at birth, i.e. dad wanted a boy and you were a girl. Overt rejection is outward rejection. As kids, we tease each other and reject one another over our differences. These wounds, pains, and hurts cause us to develop rejection patterns and habits. I'll reject you if you reject me. Rejection Junkies is a practical guide to understanding and breaking the bondage in your life. Rejection Junkies is a best seller in Phoenix, Arizona and has already sold over 20,000 copies in our local market.

Review
"Rejection Junkies is one of the best books I have ever written. Dr. Lawrence really hit the nail on the head with this insightful book. While I was reading it I thought, 'He must know me because this whole book is based on my life.' It is easy to read and a book that you can go back to time and again and learn something new from. Rejection Junkies is a must read for everyone. Thank you Dr. Lawrence for giving me so many practical answers to problems that have haunted me my entire life. I can honestly say that I am no longer a 'Rejection Junkie!!'" -- Tom from Phoenix, Arizona
"As I read this book, I found myself realizing that I 'fit' the description of a Rejection Junkie. It helped me to better understand myself and some of my life choices that were part of my becoming who I am today, but were not positive choices. The book also gave me a renewed sense of self and conviction of who I was and who I had become. It was so interesting that once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. When I began reading Rejection Junkies, I woke up that night at 2:00 AM and had to finish what I had started. I highly recommend this book to everyone. It is extremely insightful!" -- Sue from San Diego, California
"I work in a bookstore that sells Rejection Junkies. It is, and has been our one of our top three best sellers for two years. Lots of people come in specifically looking for Rejection Junkies. I thought, 'There must be something to this book, I should read it and find out why so many people rave about it.' When I read Rejection Junkies, I learned that everyone experiences rejection in their life time and these experiences help shape who we are. I discovered some startling revelations about myself and how to break free from my emotional patterns. I am definitely going to read Rejection Junkies again and recommend it to my friends and family. We all need to learn how to break the cycle of our Rejection patterns in our life and learn how to accept ourselves based on who we are, not what other people think about us." -- Aaron from Mesa, Arizona
Rejection Junkies uses a common sense approach to problem solving and is a great reference to getting through times of grieving. Gary uses a whimsical, down to earth writing style to get his message of hope and encouragement across to his readers. This book is an enjoyable, easy read because of its practical approach to dealing with the emotions that happen in life on a daily basis. -- Bonnie from Phoenix, Arizona
These words can be a catalyst for your soul (mind, will & emotions). Take these words and rightly divine the word of God and let these words, not bitterness, take root in your soul. You will harvest a crop of peace you cannot imagine. -- Jane from Glendale, Arizona

From the Author
This book has one solitary purpose - to communicate to you some very basic truths.
These truths will enable you to:
-Identify
-Isolate
-Eliminate
the root cause of your emotional conflicts.
Through these pages you will get acquainted with my family and me and you will begin to understand the Rejection Syndrome and how it affects everyone.
You will also discover the timeless principles that I embrace. In a world where everything is constantly changing, consider this: standards change, principles don't.
Much information in print today is no more than Band-Aid therapy because it addresses the symptoms, but ignores the root cause . . . the disease!
This is like the patient who is losing his eyesight and receives a prescription for stronger lenses, when the real problem is a brain tumor. How foolish! Yet, the largest percentage of counseling techniques today embraces the Band-Aid therapy philosophy.
At New Life Dynamics Counseling Center, we locate the tumor, trace its ugly tentacles and position the client for lifesaving "emotional surgery". Only then can we free the patient from the agonizing, slow, emotional "death" he has helplessly felt approaching.
My grandmother had a teakettle that whistled when the water reached the boiling point. The whistle was the signal it was time to turn off the heat. You reach your boiling point when there's a steady stream of mental and emotional turmoil in your life. The turmoil is the signal it's time to locate the source of the "heat" and turn it off! This book will help you do just that.
Understanding and acting on the truths presented in this book changed my life. Your life can change too!
This is my hope for you.

Rejection Junkies,
This review is from: Rejection Junkies - The Hidden Addiction Everyone Suffers (Paperback)
Rejection Junkies is one of the best "Recovery" books I've read yet. Gary Lawrence is a straight shooter and doesn't hold back any punches with his style of presentation. This is a serious issue that everyone can relate to. It explains the root of rejection and how it is passed down and transfered and shows you how to overcome and heal scripturally. I started recommending this book before I finished reading it. Everyone in a position to help others or are seeking help for themselves should read this book.
