 Sex Addiction and the  
Science of Forgiveness

Forgiveness is the remission of sins. For it is by this that what has been 
                    lost, and was found, is saved from being lost again
                                                               ~ St. Augustine ~

   The power of forgiveness when 'done right', is a neuropsychological process that destroys the biochemical ability of the brain to re-enact shame, the sex addicts drug-of-choice. It re-trains the brain to learn a new level of normalcy, one without the debilitating correlates of shame. When this occurs, the brain produces different neurochemicals that the brain interprets as healthy, and an amazing thing happens - the brain is now motivated - driven really - to keep that new level of normalcy, to keep shame out and keep serenity in. This is the neuropsychological power of forgiveness.

                                                                      in influencing behavior

     You are peering at the new face of 'the traumatized brain blog'.  It was important to capture right out of the gate, the best representation of what this blog is all about and I must say that I don't think I could have found anything more expressive.  I am hoping that you will have something to say (yah or nay) about it. 

Just what is a traumatized brain? It is many things, certainly, but for me, for this blog, a traumatized brain is the product of what is now referred to in its newly relabeled glory as developmental trauma (DT), and all of the psychological and psychiatric sequelae that comes along for the ride.
