I’ve been there. Young, single, in a relationship and overwhelmed with the messages the media throws at our society, especially teens and young adults. We frequently hear “you should be this; you should try this; you should have sex; you should be in a relationship.” We are being bombarded with messages and ideas that tell us that having sex outside of marriage is okay, in fact, good. We are being told that having sex with multiple partners is acceptable, as long as you “use protection.” We frequently hear that being abstinent is abnormal. The truth is, being sexually abstinent is a wonderful experience and the right thing to do. As a matter of fact, being abstinent can safeguard you from the negative consequences [spiritually, mentally and physically] that come with premarital sex. Did you know that sex is not just a physical act, but it involves your total self- spirit, soul and body? I Choose to Wait is designed to inspire, encourage, advise and mentor anyone on how to live a life of purity, abstinence and holiness. This book is primarily for: - anyone who is abstinent and intends to remain so - anyone who may have been sexually active and wants to be abstinent - anyone who isn’t sure about what being abstinent means and has a desire to find out more, or - anyone who desires to share this timely message and bless lives around the world, to the glory of God.

Labels like vegan, virgin, or nonsmoker get thrown around to identify forms of abstinence, but for many abstainers such labels are also proud declarations of who they are. Setting aside the moral debates and psychological assessments surrounding abstinence, Jamie L. Mullaney here asks why it is that the act of not doing something plays such a crucial role in the formation of our personal identities. Based on interviews with individuals who abstain from habits as diverse as sex, cigarettes, sugar, and technology, Everyone Is NOT Doing It identifies four different types of abstainers: quitters; those who have never done something and never will; those who haven't done something yet, but might in the future; and those who are not doing something temporarily. Mullaney assesses the commonalities that bind abstainers, as well as how perceptions of abstinence change according to social context, age, and historical era. In contrast to such earlier forms of abstinence as social protest, entertainment, or an instrument of social stratification, not doing something now gives people a more secure sense of self by offering a more affordable and manageable identity in a world of ever-expanding options.

Research on treatment outcome for addictive disorders indicates that a variety of interventions are effective. However, the progress clients make in treatment frequently is undermined by the lack of an alcohol and drug free living environment supporting sustained recovery. This book suggests that treatment providers have not paid sufficient attention to the social environments where clients live after residential treatment or while attending outpatient programs. It also describes the need for alcohol and drug free living environments. We then review the history of communal living for recovering addicts and alcoholics and provide concrete examples of the Oxford House model, which is a widespread communal living option for over 10,000 recovering persons in the US. The structure and philosophy of Oxford Houses are presented along with recent outcome studies providing support for their effectiveness. This book was published as a special issue in the Journal of Groups in Addiction and Recovery.
