Download or read book Your Sexually Addicted Spouse written by Barbara Steffens and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-07 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexual addiction and compulsive sexual behavior often steal a person's ability to achieve emotional or sexual intimacy. Both addicts and their partners may suffer in isolation, ashamed and afraid, not knowing where to turn for help. Your Sexually Addicted Spouse shatters that stigma and shame and provides understanding and empathy for the addict and his or her spouse.

Firsthand accounts and stories reveal the impact of this addiction on survivors' lives. Chapters end with "On a Personal Note" questions and propose new paths that lead from trauma to empowerment, health, and hope. Useful appendices list health and mental health care providers and clergy.

Download or read book Addicted written by Marilyn Freimuth and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We first encounter the memorable Durrell family in Gerald Durrell's immortal My Family and Other Animals when, as a small child, he moves to the island of Corfu with his single mother and siblings just before World War II. Here we meet, for the first time, the whole Durrell gang: the overbearing and insufferably clever older brother, Lawrence; sister Margo, whose genius for the wrong word is only matched by her obsession with her complexion and weight and her interest in boys; brother Leslie, whose primary passion in life appears to be firearms and the eradication of the local wildlife; and the ever-patient and forbearing mother, who tries desperately to hold this household of clever and determined souls together. In addition, there are the local characters: Spiro, the loyal family retainer and go-to guy when the inevitable emergency arises; Theodore, the brilliant, if slightly eccentric, teacher and companion; and, of course, the two family dogs, Widdle and Puke. But beyond the wildly funny moments, the stream of exotic visitors, and the inevitable adventures, we can see the making of a world-class naturalist, a young boy, not even in his teens, intrigued, in fact seduced, by the animals that surround him - lizards and snakes, birds and amphibians - all observed with curiosity, recorded with accuracy, and often (to everyone's disapproval) transported home for further observation. This is really the story of a youngster who has the good fortune to discover his passion early in life, along with the ability to impart it to the reader with charm, humor, and infectious enthusiasm.

Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller Adapted into a major motion picture distributed through Lionsgate From the Queen of Erotica, Addicted tells the provocative story of one married woman’s struggle to deal with the fall-out of her forbidden desires. The world of Addicted is continued in the New York Times bestseller Nervous, and Zane’s highly-anticipated upcoming novel Vengeance, available May 24, 2016. For successful businesswoman Zoe Reynard, finding the pleasure she wants, the way she wants it, is not worth the risk of losing everything she has: a charmed marriage to her childhood sweetheart, a thriving company, and three wonderful children. But Zoe feels helpless in the grip of an overpowering addiction…to sex. After finding a compassionate therapist to help her, Zoe finally summons the courage to tell her torrid story, a tale of guilt and desire as shocking as it is compelling. From the sensitive artist with whom she spends stolen hours on rumpled sheets, to the rough and violent man who leads her toward destruction, Zoe is desperately searching for fulfillment—and, perhaps, something darker and deeper. As her life spins out of control and her sexual escapades carry her toward a dangerous fate, Zoe races to uncover the source of her “fatal attraction.” Chilling secrets tumble forth and perilous temptations build toward a climax that could threaten her sanity, her marriage…and her life.

Download or read book The Self Psychology of Addiction and its Treatment written by Richard B. Ulman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-03 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the time of Freud, the typical psychoanalytic patient was afflicted with neurotic disorders; however, the modern-day psychotherapy patient often suffers instead from a variety of addictive disorders. As the treatment of neurotic disorders based on unconscious conflicts cannot be applied to treatment of addictive disorders, psychoanalysis has been unable to keep pace with the changes in the type of patient seeking help. To address the shift and respond to contemporary patients’ needs, Ulman and Paul present a thorough discussion of addiction that studies and analyzes treatment options. Their honest and unique work provides new ideas that will help gain access to the fantasy worlds of addicted patients. The Self Psychology of Addiction and Its Treatment emphasizes clinical approaches in the treatment of challenging narcissistic patients struggling with the five major forms of addiction. Ulman and Paul focus on six specific case studies that are illustrative of the five forms of addiction. They use the representative subjects to develop a self psychological model that helps to answer the pertinent questions regarding the origins and pathway of addiction. This comprehensive book links addiction and trauma in an original manner that creates a greater understanding of addiction and its foundations than any clinical or theoretical model to date.

Loren Hale's best friend is his bottle of bourbon. Lily comes at a close second. For three years, they've pretended to be in a real relationship, hiding their addictions from their families. They've mastered the art of concealing flasks and random guys that filter in and out of their apartment. But as they sink beneath the weight of their addictions, they cling harder to their destructive relationship and wonder if a life together, for real, is better than a lie. Strangers and family begin to infiltrate their guarded lives, and with new challenges, they realize they may not just be addicted to alcohol and sex. Their real vice may be each other.
