“Males, Eating Disorders & Addiction: My Recovery Story”
Story of Hope:
Recovery from Body Dysmorphia, Eating Disorders and Alcohol Abuse
It was a beautiful fall morning as an incoming freshman at Penn State University; that day, my thought process, health and chances of my very survival would take a turn for the worse.
As I stared out the window of my dorm at other students beginning their journey into the future, I made eye contact with a pretty browned hair girl talking to friends in the parking lot facing my dorm window.

Brian Cuban – Interview on Males & Body Image
What are the unique struggles that males face with body image?
Males face a unique struggle because society has evolved to tell us that to have body image issues is a sign of weakness. We, therefore, keep it to ourselves and are much less likely to seek treatment than females. I have had male tell me they are afraid their wives will leave them, they will lose their jobs, and that their sexuality will be questioned if they reveal their eating disorder.
The Addicted Lawyer:
Tales of the Bar, Booze, Blow, and Redemption
Brian Cuban was living a lie. With a famous last name and a successful career as a lawyer, Brian was able to hide his clinical depression and alcohol and cocaine addictions—for a while.
Today, as an inspirational speaker in long-term recovery, Brian looks back on his journey with honesty, compassion, and even humor as he reflects both on what he has learned about himself and his career choice and how the legal profession enables addiction. His demons, which date to his childhood, controlled him through failed marriages and stays in a psychiatric facility until they brought him to the brink of suicide. That was his wake-up call. This is his story.
