This book is about my life. I was born on August 1, 1948 in Seattle, Washington, at Puget Sound Hospital. I ask myself why anybody would want to read a book about me, but it's not necessarily a book about me. I am hoping that this book will help people that have made a lot of mistakes in their lives understand a little bit more about the process of life and how we can make sense out of some of the mistakes that we've made or just be more at peace with the life that we've lived. I remember coming to earth. I know that sounds crazy. I thought it was a little crazy, but you know, I do remember. And I cannot deny it! I've really never met in person anyone that has remembered coming to earth. Then a few years ago I got a hold of a book written by Wayne Dyer, and he was the only other person I ever heard that had also remembered coming to earth. God has always seemed so real to me I just felt like I knew him. When I came here, I was waiting in a long line, and it came to be my turn. I was so excited because there were a lot of people or a lot of spirits waiting, and it was my turn! It was very special in the spiritual realm to have the privilege to be wrapped in an earthly body to come to earth! Even if the body was crippled or maimed, somehow it was still a huge privilege! I was so excited about coming I said, "Oh, Lord, send me to the worst family you have, and I'll tell them all about you. I'll tell them how much you love them. I know as soon as I tell them how much you mean, how wonderful you are, and what a great Lord you are, they will love you just like I do! Oh, please send me. I will not lose my way, I promise!" He said, "Oh, believe me you will lose your way. Everyone does, but I promise you this: you will always find your way home." Well, the next thing I knew I was here. I had no idea what was in store for me! I had made contracts with certain people, and now I had to live up to those contracts. I was here on earth all right, and I was in a real cozy family. The journey had begun.

remember coming to Earth. I know this sounds crazy, but I do remember and I cannot deny it! I've never met anyone else who remembers coming to Earth, until a few years ago, when I came across a book written by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, wherein, he too remembered coming to Earth. God has always seemed so real to me - I felt like I knew him. I waited in a long line, along with many people or spirits, and was excited when it was finally my turn! It was considered special in the spiritual realm to have the privilege of being wrapped in an earthly body to come to Earth! Even if the body was crippled or maimed, it was still a privilege. I was so excited about my arrival, I said, "Oh, Lord, send me to a troubled family, and I'll tell them all about you and how much you love them. I know as soon as I tell them how much you mean, how wonderful you are, and what a great Lord you are, they will love you just like I do! Oh, please send me. I will not lose my way, I promise!"

Love addiction manifests in many forms, from Fatal Attraction-type obsessive lust to less extreme but nonetheless psychologically and emotionally harmful forms. The most common of these is staying in a bad relationship because of a fear of being alone-the "I hate you but don't leave me" relationship. In ADDICTION TO LOVE, recovering love addict Susan Peabody explains the variety of ways this disorder plays out, from the obsessively doting love addict to the addict who can't disentangle from an unfulfilling, dead-end relationship. Peabody provides an in-depth and easy-to-follow recovery program for those suffering from this unhealthy and often dangerous addiction and explains how to create a loving, safe, and fulfilling relationship. • A seminal work on unhealthy and obsessive behaviors in love, and how to change behavior to have a positive relationship. This third edition includes a new introduction and revisions to the text throughout. • Some symptoms of love addiction include love at first sight, excessive fantasizing, abnormal jealousy, nagging, and accepting dishonesty. • Even relationships with parents, children, siblings, or friends may be addictive-dependency is not always related to romantic love. • Previous editions have sold more than 40,000 copies. "Love addiction is a three-headed serpent that Susan Peabody adeptly slays. This is the quintessential book for any love addict or counselor needing to fully understand this highly prevalent and complex disorder. Susan detects and dissects aspects of this condition not comprehended in other books of its kind. Recovery is possible. This book makes it possible to take the succinct steps necessary toward a loving and reciprocal long-term intimate relationship." —Sudi Scull, M.F.T., C.N., psychotherapist and nutritionist

Neuroscience now shows us--in living color, thanks to PET scans and fMRI technology--that falling in love affects our brains precisely the same way as snorting cocaine. Award-winning author and screenwriter Ethlie Ann Vare already knew that; she's been addicted to both. She survived to tell the tale . . . with humor, honesty, and hope. Just because something is addictive doesn't mean that you will get addicted to it. But . . . if your stomach ties up in knots while you count the seconds waiting for a phone call from that special someone . . . if you hear a loud buzzing in your ears when you see a certain person's car (or one just like it) . . . if your eyes burn when you hear a random love song or see a couple holding hands . . . if you suffer the twin agonies of craving for and withdrawing from a series of unrequited crushes or toxic relationships . . . if you always feel like you're clutching at someone's ankle and dragged across the floor as they try to leave the room . . . welcome to the club. With a light touch and a sharp wit, Ethlie has enlisted some famous love junkies--including supermodel Amber Smith, movie star William McNamara, and comedienne Margaret Cho--and the top therapists and researchers in the field to help lead you from the dark of despair into the dawn of recovery.

A psychologist and bestselling author redefines love and sex addiction as a spectrum disorder, and offers a new approach for healing. For anyone who has wondered Why does everyone else seem to be able to make romantic relationships work, and I can’t? What’s wrong with me? Why is love so hard? Psychologist and bestselling memoirist Kerry Cohen is all too familiar with the questions she often hears from her clients—and has asked herself. Even though sex and love are some of the most universal, sought-after experiences we have, many of us lack the tools and understanding to approach them in a healthy way. Without knowing it, many people struggling with sex and love actually fall somewhere on the spectrum of sex and love addiction (SLA). Sex and love addiction is still wildly misunderstood. It’s shrouded in secrecy and shame, and many counselors lack the training to address it—leaving people who need help without resources. Yet SLA isn’t a binary of you are or you aren’t, rather, it’s a spectrum. Kerry Cohen knows this all too well as both a therapist and someone who identifies on the SLA spectrum. Based on research and her own clinical experience, Crazy for You dives into SLA and provides an inclusive framework for understanding relationships, along with practical exercises and advice for self-assessment, discovery, and healing: Part one explains the sex and love addiction spectrum, helping you determine where you fall on it and how you got there Part two introduces strategies for breaking the spell of sex and love addiction, like behavior modifications and self-awareness techniques Part three teaches you how to navigate healthy, safe, and fulfilling relationships
