Recovery from sex addiction, porn addiction, repeated infidelity or compulsive sexual behavior does not have to suck. Allow me to repeat that: your life during your recovery journey does not have to suck. I’ve worked with hundreds of men and almost every single one of them begins their recovery journey with a desire to inflict pain on themselves in an effort to relieve themselves of the guilt, shame, and regret from the pain they’ve inflicted on others. This process can be a celebratory one. Think about it, whether you’ve confessed or you’ve been discovered, you’re now living in a more honest and authentic space than you have in quite some time. If you’re reading this post it means that you are at least considering a life with healthier outcomes and less compulsion… and that is a life that is worth celebrating, not one requiring self-imprisonment or punishment.
