Now revised and updated for the 21st-century, "Becoming Gay "is the
classic guide on how to accept one's homosexuality. By exploring
the psychological development of gay men through personal case
histories--including his own--Dr. Isay shows how disguising one's
sexual identity can induce anxiety, depression, and low
self-esteem. Individual chapters tackle acceptance in any stage or
circumstance of life, whether it be adolescence,
married-with-children, retirement age, or living with HIV and AIDS.
Dr. Isay's insights provide invaluable support to gay men and will
enliven families, friends, and therapists who want to better
understand the process of coming out and help their loved ones or
patients to embrace a positive gay identity.
