Description

Dr. Carnes broke new ground with Out of the Shadows. Facing the Shadows continued that pioneering spirit as the first book to take techniques used by thousands of people recovering from sex addiction and show, step by step, how to break free of this disease and live a healthier, more fulfilling life. This second edition adds timely material on cybersex and new science about arousal. This work sets the stage for recovery tasks at hand, and then provides practical, easy-to-follow exercises specifically designed to help understand and address them. You'll learn:

  • Why denial is so powerful and what can be done to break through it.
  • How to face the consequences of your behaviors using recovery principles.
  • How to respond to change and crisis due to addiction
  • How to manage life without dysfunctional behavior
  • How spirituality affects recovery
  • What to disclose and to whom
  • How does sex addiction start and what does an addict need to know
