This book aims to provide an inspirational example of breaking the cycle of mental health stigmas and addiction, both in the gay community and the community at large. In this book, I focus on the benefits of talk therapy, medication management as treatment, and forgiveness as a core to overcoming the past and thriving in the present. I use my lifelong struggles with bipolar depression and a genetic disposition for substance abuse—which morphed into an anonymous sex addiction during the height of the AIDS Epidemic—to illustrate the dangers of treatment noncompliance. Through it all, I’ll share the journey I took to come to terms with my homosexuality and overcome tremendous health odds to find success and peace with myself. Other topics I explore in this memoir include suicide, poverty, domestic violence, and alcoholism.
