Analysis Of Deb Laaser's Spouse Recovery
It’s unfortunate that you had to endure that type of pain as a kid. While reading your thread, I thought about what Deb Laaser said while she was talking to Jennifer Cisney in the presentation titled “Spouse Recovery.” She talked about what happened between her and Mark Laaser and how Mark engaged in sexual behaviors that were not right. However, she said even though the situation was a bad one, there is hope in the struggle. Cisney said that God used Laaser’s situation as a means to strengthen her. I am not condoning what happening to you. I am just saying that, like Laaser, hopefully you were able to find some type of strength and growth in your

    Ptsd and Trauma Focused Cbt

    Many children are exposed to traumatic events before they even become adults. All around the world they are exposed to child abuse, rape, natural disasters, terrorism, car accidents, and school violence among many others. Studies have shown that these traumatic events, if left untreated, can result in significant psychological problems, such as post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or other anxiety disorders, depression, or a number of other behavioral difficulties (Cohen, Mannarino, Berliner & Deblinger, 2000). These difficulties can become chronic and produce negative effects which could last into adulthood. It is therefore imperative that effective treatment strategies be found to help symptomatic traumatized children in order to minimize these negative effects.…

    Mr Conor de Blank

    Let’s start in the beginning, (very biblical I know but bare with me on this; it’s my first time). As I predicted, I was conceived as an accident, my father being a big time criminal and heroin addict (along with many other hard drugs I’m sure). My mother was going through a very tough stage in life where she felt unsettled by her parents for some reason, became a punk of some kind, would away from home incessantly, take all sorts of revolting narcotics and most possibly have a lot of sex with various guys. I’m not sure how my mum and dad actually met, that is a riddle to be solved, but I do know that they had a little flat in London and were living together with two dogs, one of which a violent Staffy. Once mum had found out that she was pregnant with me my father lost it. Every now and then he’d beat her and hurl abuse at her. I’m not sure what he was like sober; my mother says that he was never to be seen so. He was always wired on something.…

    Describing the Characteristics of an Ideal Appraisal System.

    It has been five years since this event took place. The old saying is time heals all wounds and I agree with that to a point. I know still as of today there is days that is good for me and others that all can do is feel as I felt on May 10, 2007. They say there is a lesson in all life trails and I have spent the last five years trying to figure this life lesson out. I have come to the conclusion that maybe this wasn’t my life lesson to learn. That maybe it was meant for my son and his girlfriend or it could have been a lesson for all three of us. Sometimes God allows things to happen to…

    Marvin Johnson-Personal Narrative

    Jessi was upset about our mistake, but could relate because Marvin’s oldest brother she had at 16. That was more of the reason she preached to us, because she said it was extremely hard. But we didn’t listen, we did what we wanted to do. So, as time passed I got bigger. Marvin kept cheating and his ways just didn’t change. He argued, we fought, and I found myself losing everything for him. Once, I even targeted a girl with my fists, 6 months pregnant fighting for a boy that wanted to simply live his life. My life was over, I had a responsibly. I walked around school big and tired. Some days it was hard to keep pushing but I knew I had to. I took some of my senior classes my junior year so that things would be easier. In the middle of my senior year, I had a little boy. His name was Major. I was obsessed with him. He was everything I wished for. I was in labor for 3 days and ended up having to have a C section because I got stuck at 3 cms. It was dreadful, but everyone was their with me, even Jade. I came home and had to be on strong medicine for a while, which caused me to become addicted. Marvin was around lot, he basically lived with me for the first three months helping me with Major. I commended him for that and was forever thankful for the nights I got to sleep…

    Embraced by the Needle

    “Childhood memories of serial abandonment or severe physical and psychological abuse are common,” says Maté (306). The majority of the women and some men addicts Downtown East Vancouver are suffering from sexual assault from their childhood years. Maté gave a couple of examples from two of his clients from Portland. First, a 36 year-old cocaine user went from foster home to foster home; he was punished by getting dish soap poured down his throat and tied to a chair in a dark room at the age of 5. Next, a 32 year-old poet who suffers from mental…

    Physiological Pithole

    Sometimes I would be the mommy, others the daddy; it did not matter who I was because the game always ended the same way. As I grew older, I began to crave the feelings that were exposed to me as a child and the person, whom I will call X, was always willing to give them to me. However, one day, after six years, X came to me and told me that we could no longer continue what we were doing. I did not understand why, at the moment, so I simply shrugged off the matter. And since I no longer had anyone else to “play” with, I began to seek the pleasure that I was taught and conditioned to love by myself with the help of the internet. This continued for about two years until the summer of 2013. During that summer I stumbled upon a book called “The Source of All Things” by Tracy Ross. I was actually in a Dollar Tree in Dallas, Texas when I decided I wanted to pick up a few cheap books to read on my way back home to Naples, Florida; nevertheless, by the time we got home I had already finished reading the book. The book was about Tracy Ross and her own sexual abuse story as a child and how she eventually overcame i. After I finished the book and realized that the games I played with X were not actually games and that the feelings I experienced were not meant for me to have experienced, I sank a good fifty feet deeper into my hole. I did not want anyone to look at me, touch me, or even compliment me. I wanted to vanish from the face of the Earth and cry out my body weight. I could not run to my parents for help because I was too embarrassed and ashamed of myself. I felt dirty and worthless. I withdrew from my family and isolated myself from social activities. I voluntarily made myself a social…

    Reaction Paper To Healing The Wounds Of Sexual Addiction

    Experts speculate that up to 10 percent of the total Christian population in the United States is sexually addicted (Laaser, 2004). There are so many individuals that are struggling with a sexual addiction and are too ashamed to seek help thus leaving a great number of unreported cases. Several reasons may apply to the sexually addicted person for not seeking help; Laaser (2004) discusses some of those reasons as being shame, guilt, fear of losing a job and their family. Dr. Laaser’s work is clearly articulated and provides great information on healing sexual addiction and the road to recovery. It is through his work that a Christian worldview is established towards the healing process.…
