Enfrentarse a Las Sombras

Patrick J Carnes

Para todos los adictos, llega un momento en el que finalmente reconocen que tienen un problema. Es un momento de claridad- el conocimiento de que su vida est? fuera de control. Ese momento, sin embargo, es fr?gil. Se pierde f?cilmente ante el anhelo y la negaci?n. Las personas que luchan contra la adicci?n sexual se encuentran pensando en las mismas frases: mi situaci?n es diferente. . . todo esto pasar?. . . todos reaccionan exageradamente a mi comportamiento. O, ya no tengo esperanza. Soy muy pervertido para cambiar.

"Si te han pasado algunas de esas ideas por la cabeza, est?s exactamente donde deber?as estar," narra Dr. Patrick Carnes en la introducci?n de Enfrentarse a la Sombra. Iniciando con esas gentiles palabras, ?l dirige a los lectores por medio de una serie de reflexiones y ejercicios que traspasan la negaci?n y alumbran el camino a la sanaci?n de la adicci?n sexual.

Enfrentarse a la Sombra, usado por miles de terapeutas con sus clientes, est? basado en un modelo de treinta tareas para recuperaci?n a la adicci?n que forman la base del trabajo de Carnes. Esta edici?n reci?n revisada y expandida orienta a los lectores a lo largo de las primeras siete tareas, incluyendo habilidades espec?ficas formadas como ejercicios. Este modelo tambi?n est? dise?ado para apoyar los programas de recuperaci?n de Doce Pasos.

For all addicts, a moment comes when they realize they have a problem. There is sudden clarity--the insight that life has become unmanageable. That moment, however, is fragile. It is easily lost to craving and denial. People struggling with sex addiction find the old refrains creeping back into their thinking: My situation is different. . . . This will all blow over. . . . People are overreacting to my behavior. Or, This is hopeless. I'm just too perverted to change.

"If any of those thoughts occur to you, you are exactly where you should be," notes Dr. Patrick Carnes in the introduction to Facing the Shadow. Starting with those gentle words, he guides readers through a series of reflections and exercises that pierce denial and light the path to healing from sex addiction.

Facing the Shadow, used by thousands of therapists with their clients, is based on the thirty-task model of recovery from addiction that forms the basis of Carnes's work. This newly revised and expanded edition takes readers through the first seven of those tasks, including specific performables that are built into the exercises. The model also supports Twelve Step recovery programs.
