Subject: This volume addresses the taboo subject of female sexual addiction with frankness, compassion, and vulnerability. The author offers practical help for those battling sexual addiction and those who want to stand alongside these women as they seek help. In part one, she defines the secret sin of sexual addiction, then explores messages about being female. She details the consequences and cycle of addiction as it presents itself in females and provides a diagnostic tool. In part two, the author explores the roots of sexual addiction: unhealthy families, abuse, abandonment, generational patterns, and the core beliefs and emotions of an addict. In part three, she outlines the path to recovery and healing: surrender and sobriety, disclosure, community, accountability, boundaries, healing from trauma, and on-going recovery. There is a special chapter for the husband, family, and friends of a female addict.
