A first-time examination of sexual anorexia, an extreme fear of
sexual intimacy and obsessive avoidance of sex, by the acknowledged
leader in the treatment of compulsive sexual behaviour and
recovery. Author Dr. Patrick Carnes begins by defining sexual
anorexia and demonstrating how it and its parallel disorder, sexual
addiction and compulsivity, often arise from a background of
childhood sexual trauma, neglect, and other forms of abuse, Carnes
explores the numerous dimensions of sexual health, examining key
issues which must be addressed and resolved for recovery to
proceed. Utilising extensive research and elucidating case studies,
Carnes develops concrete tasks and plans for restoring nurturing
and sensuality, building fulfilling relationships, exploring
intimacy, and creating healthy sexuality. Woven throughout the book
are stories of recovery which illustrate sexual healing principles,
model new behaviour, and support motivation for change.Sexual
Anorexia enables those suffering from this disorder to recognise
that sex need not be a furtive enemy to be fought and defeated but,
instead, a deeply sensual, passionate, fulfilling, and spiritual
experience that all human beings are innately entitled to.
