About this listen
Forget everything you think you know about psychedelics. They’re not punchlines. They’re not party favors for aging hippies. Instead, as Alex Abraham discovered, they are an innovative approach that can help heal trauma and chronic pain.
Trauma and Ecstasy takes a long, hard look at pain, from the sudden unexplained pelvic floor discomfort that afflicted Alex at the end of a trip abroad to the deeply rooted anxiety and shame of a childhood robbed of innocence. In this powerful and courageous memoir, Alex takes you on his journey of healing from sexual abuse while searching for answers to his health issues that traditional medicine failed to explain or treat.
Trauma and Ecstasy is quite likely the most engaging, honest, and compelling memoir of surviving childhood sexual trauma you’ll ever read. It offers the hope of real help for healing from the emotional and physical aftermath of abuse and chronic pain.

The MANipulator manual. Keep your man interested and begging for more without playing games. So many women get in trouble in their love lives, and 99.9 percent of that trouble could have been avoided if they'd said "Well, f**k him!" a bit more often. Too many women are way too nice and compliant to their men, especially when these men don't deserve that kind of treatment. I, as a dating coach and author of books for women who want to get men, cannot take it anymore.

The three Maxwell siblings keep their distance from the lily-white gated enclave outside Dallas where they grew up. When their family moved there, they were the only Black family in the neighborhood. The neighbors acted nice enough, but right away bad things, scary things—the strange and the unexplainable—began to happen in their house. Maybe it was some cosmic trial, a demonic rite of passage into the upper-middle class. Whatever it was, the Maxwells, steered by their formidable mother, stayed put, unwilling to abandon their home, terrors and trauma be damned.

But this time, he delves even deeper into his craft. He considers himself one of the few actors who didn’t want to direct, but instead to write, and write abundantly.

Patric Gagne realized she made others uncomfortable before she started kindergarten. Something about her caused people to react in a way she didn’t understand. She suspected it was because she didn’t feel things the way other kids did. Emotions like fear, guilt, and empathy eluded her. For the most part, she felt nothing. And she didn’t like the way that “nothing” felt.

Just another normal guy
I met Alex randomly in Austin, Texas and I never would have imagined he had experienced such terrible things and was bearing the emotional and physical ales of it all. He seemed like just another normal guy.
Hearing his very personal and traumatic story and how he faced it years later was eye opening. Anyone could be a victim of horrible acts. You can never understand what someone's been through or going through on the surface.

This will become a very important resource for healing!
This book has so many layers that’s connected to many different types of healing. Alex is the bravest person I have yet to meet. Talking about abuse and especially Men as victims is so rare and so needed in our society. MEN ARE ABUSED TOO, a lot in fact. I’ve been in trauma therapy for 10 years and reading this book helped me shift to blockages that I need to address. Alex’s honesty with his experience will become an example and give courage to so many others. I really hope that people and especially Men are brave enough to read it. Otherwise, these men aren’t healing, they’re dying or worse repeating the cycle. THANK YOU ALEX!
