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 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.

Never before has a single writer elaborated on the steamy, anonymous goings-on of gay men in subterranean London with such psychological and physical honesty. Review in Gay Times, London (February 2012): "It is a gay sex memoir that miraculously manages to go beyond sensationalist arousal... As much as it is a book about sex - abundant and mostly anonymous - it's equally about relationships and the ways gay men relate to each other (however brief the timescale)... It's not what you'd expect from this 'type' of book, and is all the more refreshing for it."

Download or read book The Twelve Steps and the Sacraments written by Scott Weeman and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of a 2018 Catholic Press Association Award: Sacraments. (Second Place). In the first book to directly integrate the Twelve Steps with the practice of Catholicism, Scott Weeman, founder and director of Catholic in Recovery, pairs his personal story with compassionate straight talk to show Catholics how to bridge the commonly felt gap between the Higher Power of twelve-step programs and the merciful God that he rediscovered in the heart of the sacraments. Weeman entered sobriety from alcohol and drugs on October 10, 2011, and he's made it his full-time ministry to help others who struggle with various types of addiction to find spiritual wholeness through Catholic in Recovery, an organization he founded and directs. In The Twelve Steps and the Sacraments, Weeman candidly tackles the struggle he and other addicts have with getting to know intimately the unnamed Higher Power of recovery. He shares stories of his compulsion to find a personal relationship with God and how his tentative steps back to the Catholic Church opened new doors of healing and brought him surprising joy as he came to know Christ in the sacraments. Catholics in recovery and those moving toward it, as well as the people who love them will recognize Weeman's story and his spiritual struggle to personally encounter God. He tells us how: Baptism helps you admit powerlessness over an unmanageable problem, face your desperate need for God, and choose to believe in and submit to God’s mercy. Reconciliation affirms and strengthens the hard work of examining your life, admitting wrongs, and making amends. The Eucharist provides ongoing sustenance and draws you to the healing power of Christ. The graces of Confirmation strengthen each person to keep moving forward and to share the good news of recovery and new life in Christ. Weeman's words are boldly challenging and brimming with compassion and through them you will discover inspiration, hope, sage advice, and refreshingly practical help.

Download or read book The Hungry Years written by William Leith and published by Anchor Canada. This book was released on 2010-08-20 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Hunger is the loudest voice in my head. I’m hungry most of the time.” William Leith began the eighties slim; by the end of that decade he had packed on an uncomfortable amount of weight. In the early nineties, he was slim again, but his weight began to creep up once more. On January 20th, 2003, he woke up on the fattest day of his life. That same day he left London for New York to interview controversial diet guru Dr. Robert Atkins. But what was meant to be a routine journalistic assignment set Leith on an intensely personal and illuminating journey into the mysteries of hunger and addiction. From his many years as a journalist, Leith knows that being fat is something people find more difficult to talk about than nearly anything else. But in The Hungry Years he does precisely that. Leith uses his own pathological relationship with food as a starting point and reveals himself, driven to the kitchen first thing in the morning to inhale slice after slice of buttered toast, wracked by a physical and emotional need that only food can satisfy. He travels through fast food-scented airports and coffee shops as he explores the all-encompassing power of advertising and the unattainable notions of physical perfection that feed the multibillion dollar diet industry. Fat has been called a feminist issue: William Leith’s unblinking look at the physical consequences and psychological pain of being an overweight man charts fascinating new territory for everyone who has ever had a craving or counted a calorie. The Hungry Years is a story of food, fat, and addiction that is both funny and heartwrenching. I was sitting in a café on the corner of 3rd Avenue and 24th Street in Manhattan, holding a menu. I was overweight. In fact, I was fat. Like millions of other people, I had entered into a pathological relationship with food, and with my own body. For years I had desperately wanted to write about why this had happened — not just to me, but to all those other people as well. I knew it had a lot to do with food. But I also knew it was connected to all sorts of outside forces. If I could understand what had happened to me, I could tell people what had happened to them, too. Right there and then, I decided that I would do everything to discover why I had got fat. I would look at every angle. And then I would lose weight, and report back from the slim world. —Excerpt from The Hungry Years
