I'm really intrested in what your views are when you see "you are not your mind."

I feel like i understand what your getting at; the ability to step back inside your mind as you commit actions that you don't identify with internally.

It's something I'm really intrested in, I hope you can expresss your views on this so I can hear them.

thanks

@fygilia Hi Fygilia, Good to hear from you. The very best/easiest place to "get" this information is a book called, "Practicing the Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle. It's a primmer for the bigger picture. Let me know if you have further questions. My own sex addiction book will be out this spring, but don't wait for that. Tolle's good.

Best, George

How much in general does this cost...over the phone

[compulsionsol]

The first call costs nothing. That's the time that I get to help you see where you are...to help you understand your situation....to refer you to books, groups or our services. Take advantage of that. I'm right here. George

"You're only as sick as your secrets." So true! I fear for all the unsuspecting young boys and men who will inevitably get drawn into the quicksand/slippery slope of pornography (mainly through the internet), and end up spending themselves chasing the ghosts of something once pure in their hearts, but now twisted, into the darkness. I fear for the girls and women too; we're all affected by this in defferent ways: individuals, relationships, families, societies.

Good comment. You're right. These men are suffering from "euphoric recall." That amazing moment when, as boys, they found the porn or saw a naked girl, or? That's a big deal for a boy. IF you have someone to talk to about it...IF you get "the good talk" then...you grow up respecting sex and understanding intimacy. If not...you grow up objectifying and sexualizing and trying, unsuccessfully, to reproduce that euphoric moment. It's a sad state of affairs. Not many boys get the good talk.

My husband committed suicide because of sexual addiction. He spent 8 years in prison because of this and he never raped or touched anyone. He got treatment for years from the best psychiatrists and counseling services in the country. I recently learned that t he politians in the state of Rhode Island are infected with greed and have made prostitution/strip clubs etc. legal as long as it is kept indoors. Politicians preying on people's weaknesses then locking them up is a crime. Why to death

well..where can we see it??

[billgermany2000]

very good

Otherwise, we keep borrowing script from porn, movies etc and strive, gullibly, to achieve 'THE PEAK' which is really hard to find. We can learn through TA how to keep the TA child healthy through career, sports etc and allocate our more finite values to sexual intimacy. I am also able to see how I have got lost over the years, from what age I began to deviate etc.. It is very detailed vision and I wish you find TA helpful too. spread the word!.

I have been doing TA for nearly 3 weeks now and I totally recommend it. I begin to understand Sex as a simple transaction, a dialogue through touch between two TA Child, monitored and facilitated by the TA aDULT. I am no longer repulsed by porn or sex videos. I am able to see through them, gather a penetrating vision, and see the implied, twisted dialogues that make them. Like any other transaction, sex must have an original goal, an original end.

The rats would just keep pushing the button and not bother to eat or drink until they were dead. We humans seem to develop the same behaviour under the right (wrong) conditions. Not all junkies are drug users.

Might be of some help for these guys to see that video.
