The Gay Man's Guide to Thriving at Midlife

Plot

Many gay men enter midlife unprepared to face the challenges of living in a youth oriented culture. What they don't know is that they are embarking on what may be the most dynamic and rewarding phase of their journey. Rik Isensee, nationally renowned clinical psychologist and the author of the best-selling Love Between Men and Reclaiming Your Life, brings years of practical experience and research to this vital guide for gay men on celebrating this new period of their lives. Isensee expertly navigates relevant issues such as countering stereotypes, reaching closure with a youthful identity, staying in shape, changes in long-term relationships, sex, and learning to embrace the positive aspects of aging. In the warm and empathetic style for which he has become famous, Isensee clearly shows that the course to midlife, while challenging, is both exciting and fulfilling, and that the best is yet to come.
