Download or read book Confessions of a Sex Addict written by Brian Stiles and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-02-18 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexual addiction, often described as hypersexuality, erotomania, and nymphomania, and often characterized by and associated with addictive or obsessive personalities, escapism, psychological disorders, low self-esteem, self-destructive behavior, lowered sexual inhibitions, alcohol, and drugs, has, since the 1980s, become as big of an addiction – of not more than – the latter, in intensity and frequency. Like alcohol, drugs, and gambling, sexual addition, if allowed to get out of control, can be debilitating emotionally, mentally, and physically, and ruin one's life, almost past the point of no return. CONFESSIONS OF A SEX ADDICT is author Brian Stiles own true-life, harrowing account of his descent into sexual addiction; from his first sexual experience with a another boy at the tender age of ten years old, to his days as an adult, having resorted to soliciting himself to women – and men – for sex, in order to fuel his substance abuse, to his days as an internet porn sensation, his nightmarish memoirs are a testament to the consequences of sexual addition, and how hard the long road home to recovery can really be. As told through the eyes of a true survivor, CONFESSIONS OF A SEX ADDICT is a harrowing, often unflinching glimpse into a nightmarish world most of us never knew existed – and most of us would never want to visit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I learned much about myself writing this book. It is why the first subtitle is, “a journey of self-discovery,” including confessions of my “sex addiction,” significant enough to rate the second subtitle. I reveal truths about myself that no one knew about me, including me — until I had to accept them to be able to publicly admit them. To write this took a lot of gut-wrenching soul-searching. You will read in the preface that I dictated my book because I can’t type due to my stroke, employing the amazing Dragon (Nuance} naturally speaking speech recognition software, and I list the other factors enabling the me to write it.

Download or read book Memoirs of a Sex Addict A Jersey Girl Bares All written by Samantha Barrett and published by . This book was released on 2013-05 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Samantha Barrett says that initially, Memoirs of a Sex Addict was written to help heal herself. It is her sincere hope that it will also benefit others who have suffered as she has with Body Dysmorphic Disorder, a disorder which led directly to sex addiction and many of the reckless adventures recorded in this book. For her, BDD was a very rough ride, so some of the language and emotions in these pages are also rough. It had to be that way, she says, in order to tell the true story. The betrayals were many, including of her husbands, and there was never a shortage of men willing to take advantage of her. Even a counselor in an inpatient addiction hospital found her to be easy prey. Of course, the greatest betrayal was of herself. Some of what she did will come across as wild, out of control, even self-indulgent, but the common theme with alcohol and drug addicts is that she could not stop herself. Dr. Irvin Milowe, MD, and professor of psychiatry at the University of Miami, calls Memoirs of a Sex Addict "a very thoughtful trip into an addiction, that also shows the route out." And while Ms. Barrett is indeed eager to help others avoid her plight, she does not hide the details of her excursions. For Samantha Barrett the journey into addiction began during her childhood with being bullied in the home in what might seem a benign way. "The media," she says, "has been telling us about bullies at school and on the internet, but we rarely hear of bullies living under the same roof. We assume that parents will prevent anything hurtful to their children. But what if they are not aware? What may be "harmless teasing" for one child, could be devastating to another. A child may be hiding the pain. I was told that I was ugly, that no man would ever marry me. This led to a disease called Body Dysmorphic Disorder or BDD, a disease that distorted the way I saw myself and led me to obsess over flaws that may not have even be present. We hear tragic stories of drug and alcohol addiction. My addiction was different. Sex was my "drug of choice." Only sex could take away my pain of feeling "ugly." As soon as a man was on top of me or giving me attention, I felt beautiful. Often, alcohol went along with this behavior, but sex was the one I had no control over. Hopefully, the stories in this book will encourage parents, teachers and caregivers to be more aware of what is being told to or heard by their children."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the world emphasizes sex to a greater degree, more and more people find themselves dealing with sexual addiction-either their own or that of a loved one. It is important that we begin to recognize and understand this problem so that it can be addressed. With that in mind, this memoir shares author Mary Gillespie's personal story about a complicated marriage. They met and married young, and when Gillespie's husband, Will, surrendered his life to the ministry, they began their journey in the ministry together. On the surface, things seemed fine, but there were many signs and indicators in their marriage that things were not right. When he was caught in an affair and diagnosed as having a sex addiction, she stayed with him, determined to discover the source of the addiction, to work through the problem, and to forgive him. But after his death, she learned that he had fallen back into his dark life, leaving her grieving both that and his loss. She struggled with her emotions, wanting desperately to understand the illness. Pouring into an Empty Vessel: My Life, Married to a Sex Addict helps you understand the life and pain of a sex addict-and that of the partner. Though the spouse can do little to help the addict, you can learn how to endure the helplessness of being unable to help-and how to help yourself survive.

Download or read book Bullshit Jobs written by David Graeber and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From bestselling writer David Graeber—“a master of opening up thought and stimulating debate” (Slate)—a powerful argument against the rise of meaningless, unfulfilling jobs…and their consequences. Does your job make a meaningful contribution to the world? In the spring of 2013, David Graeber asked this question in a playful, provocative essay titled “On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs.” It went viral. After one million online views in seventeen different languages, people all over the world are still debating the answer. There are hordes of people—HR consultants, communication coordinators, telemarketing researchers, corporate lawyers—whose jobs are useless, and, tragically, they know it. These people are caught in bullshit jobs. Graeber explores one of society’s most vexing and deeply felt concerns, indicting among other villains a particular strain of finance capitalism that betrays ideals shared by thinkers ranging from Keynes to Lincoln. “Clever and charismatic” (The New Yorker), Bullshit Jobs gives individuals, corporations, and societies permission to undergo a shift in values, placing creative and caring work at the center of our culture. This book is for everyone who wants to turn their vocation back into an avocation and “a thought-provoking examination of our working lives” (Financial Times).
