Best of All!
This book is Excellent! Be sure to read this one!
Mike Lew's writing, born of experience, brings forth sharp, intense emotional reactions from men, including myself, who live with the abuses of their boyhood. It will be important for you to have ready access to a psychologist as you read this book. Visit a psychologist, if you don't already have one you are seeing, tell him or her that you'd like their help as you read this book. Take the time, if you can, to find a psychologist who is a specialist, experienced in male sexual abuse. If none is available in your area, get one who is at least experienced in childhood abuse and trauma.Don't try to read the book all at once; it will be too intense if you have been abused yourself. Take your time, read a chapter, deal with it, then read the next chapter when you feel ready to continue.
This is the book to read before all others. See for yourself!

five stars isn't enough for this
Mike Lew's book is the definitive book on recovery for males from childhood sexual abuse. When I first bought it, I was not even able to open it to the blurb page without feeling that finally, there was something that I could use to help...finally there was someone who cared. The book is hard to read. Hard, hell, it is, at times, nearly impossible, but it is also hopeful. Mike Lew is sure to include positive messages directed at the survivor, messages of encouragement and hope. I found myself with tears in my eyes as I saw my story and my life on every page, but I now know that I will survive. If you need this book, first get yourself into therapy, then get this book and take all the time you need with it. Don't rush through it.

Life changing read.
This book changed my life. It touched me in a way that I've never been touched. I was very moved from the introduction and could not put the book down. Mike Lew writes as though he is speaking directly to you. ...I highly recommend this book for anybody going through the difficulties of healing from childhood sexual abuse. Your not alone and you will survive. I also recommend it for friends and family members of surviours of sexual abuse. Similar Products
