Our sexual compulsion continues to be cunning, baffling, and powerful, even as we walk the road of recovery. Though we may have joined Sexual Compulsives Anonymous with tremendous enthusiasm and begun to enjoy sexual sobriety, most of us encountered certain pitfalls on that road. This pamphlet contains descriptions of some of the familiar diversions that can cause us to veer off the path of recovery. We have grouped them based on our collective experience of when they are most likely to happen, but they may occur at any time in recovery. Avoiding Common Pitfalls offers suggested courses of action to take when these situations arise. This edition includes all the edits and additions found in the Recovery Book.

Once a man becomes aware of his mood levels, he can begin to take proactive steps to reach and sustain a mood level where he feels confident and motivated to remain free of destructive acting-out behaviors. Book chapters are structured to help men examine their most personal issues, including: the nature and origin of sexual addiction, the roles of anger, anxiety, isolation, and depression in sexual addiction, how co-dependency fosters sexual addiction, how to cultivate self-awareness and improved attitude, and creating a healthy life style absent sexually acting out. Ultimately, readers will discover the satisfaction that comes from improved relationships with their spouses, children, other men, and God. Paul Beckers unique Recovery From Sexual Addiction series includes a core book, client workbook, and a clinician guide. The three texts use an interactive approach to help therapists and clients thoroughly explore the roots of sexual addiction and effective ways to achieve long-term recovery. The series is especially helpful to therapists who prefer to base recovery on principles proven by Dr. Patrick Carnes.

The Knowledge Every Man Needs for a Successful Divorce Each year 500,000 men will face divorce, and most of them make at least one crucial—and often irreversible—mistake. These errors might seem minor, such as moving out while things get sorted out, or thinking of “temporary” orders as being truly temporary. But when they get to court, these men discover they have put themselves in a terrible position. They may have to give up their house, pay impossibly high alimony, or even lose custody. You could be one of these men. But you don’t have to be. Joseph Cordell, the founder of the nation’s largest law firm focusing on men’s divorce and the creator of the Dads Divorce website, has seen the consequences of the mistakes men make. Drawing upon the huge number of cases that Cordell & Cordell has handled, this book identifies the 10 most common mistakes that end up hurting men in divorce. Cordell demystifies the divorce process, explains what judges consider in making their final decisions, and lays out a road map for positive actions men can take to achieve the best possible outcome. No man should face divorce without this book.
