The writer of Loving or depending, the limits of love and Love and do not suffer He has said on different opportunities that he has wondered as a psychologist if love will be a public health problem? “Therefore, half of my production is related to this in terms of prevention. If I can make it known in a more scientific way, then people will begin to relate in a better way. I want to alert the population and give information in time,” he says.
He is also a faithful promoter of ideas that arouse healthier relationships among which stand out:
- He does not deserve who hurts you.
- It doesn’t matter how much it loves you, but how they do it.
