Abstract

In its self-transforming process, the person needs a superior knowledge about life, about their existence, about the self..., capable of revealing its meaning by its relationship with the truth. This forces anthropological psychology to avoid reductionism. The autobiographical narrative presented in this article provides testimony about this necessary preoccupation for existence, even more when it deals with the transformation from addiction-including dependency and addiction to sex- to freedom and personal uplifting. The experience shows that to heal their wounds, people who have suffered same-sex attraction must freely and firmly opt for a natural personal reorientation of their sexuality. This, because of its intimate participation with freedom, far from being a sick impossibility becomes a fertile possibility.
