The Truth: An Eye-Opening Odyssey Through Love Addiction, Sex Addiction, and Extraordinary Relationships
Author: Neil Strauss
đź’” About the Book
In The Truth, Neil Strauss — bestselling author of The Game — turns his razor-sharp eye inward, chronicling an astonishing personal journey from seduction and excess to vulnerability and authentic connection.
After years spent mastering the art of attraction and becoming a global icon for the “pickup artist” movement, Strauss finds himself facing the hardest challenge of all: monogamy. When his girlfriend discovers his infidelities, he is forced into therapy and rehab, confronting not only his compulsive behaviors but the emotional wounds that created them.
What unfolds is part confession, part investigation, and part redemption story — a deep exploration of love addiction, sex addiction, and the psychological roots of intimacy and betrayal. The Truth is not a how-to manual for dating; it’s a raw, courageous inquiry into what it means to love, trust, and grow up emotionally.
🔍 What the Book Explores
- Love & Sex Addiction: How early wounds and conditioning drive adult patterns of obsession, avoidance, and self-sabotage.
- Attachment & Healing: The deep emotional roots of fear, dependency, and codependency in relationships.
- Rehab & Recovery: Strauss’s real-life experiences in a treatment center for sex and love addiction — and what he learned from the therapists and fellow patients there.
- The Search for Truth: Beyond shame and ego, Strauss embarks on an odyssey toward genuine intimacy and spiritual connection.
- Extraordinary Relationships: A candid look at polyamory, open relationships, therapy, and the messy process of redefining love.
