In the Shadows of the Net : Breaking Free of Compulsive Online Sexual Behavior



IN THE SHADOWS OF THE NET:

Breaking Free From Compulsive Online Sexual Behavior


by Patrick Carnes Ph.D., David L. Delmonico, Elizabeth Griffin, Joseph Moriarity

one reviewer says:
"Like 100s of 1000s of other internet junkies -- it is a legitimate heartbreaking problem for these people and their partners. Carnes has this book and several other highly recommended books that you MUST
buy and you must find a therapist or local SLAA [Sex & Love Addicts Anonymous] Group to help you deal with it. What is IT? Cyber-sex addiction. Internet addiction. Cyber-chat addiction. Or compulsion or pre-occupation.

Excellent book -- cannot recommend it enough. Don't fool yourself, this [cyber-sex, internet addiction] is a horrible problem that will just get worse as the internet [pulls] more innocent people in. Our society is being changed by this cyber-sex junk and not changed for the better. Every week we hear of another news report of someone murdered or abused by someone they met in a chatroom, we hear of another friend or acquaintance whose marriage broke apart because of it...we see trust destroyed or people shattered by this plague and so far only a few religious, psychologists and/or sociologists have recognized this growing problem, Dr. Carnes has been on the cutting edge and opened up the truth about it. Do yourself a favor and get this book."
