Talking About Past - Good or bad for recovery?

I find that it is really helpful to come here and talk about my experiences since I can never share these things with anybody i know.

I find that i enjoy sharing my experiences. Do people here find that sharing their past experiences openly help there recovery or leads to relapses?

 

It’s helpful in the sense that it’s comforting to know others are struggling with the same issues I am.

Occasionally I do find myself getting aroused reading some other people’s experineces. That’s when it’s time to refocus and stop reading.

 

I guess it's better coming here and sharing then watching porn and relapsing!

 

Very true.

 

I am starting to think I've had more experiences then most, or different kinds. Or maybe I am just being really open here. At one point, as an example, I was curious about Indian women so I saw a bunch of them. Never really got excited by Asians but visited a few at massage parlors. I did visit a male Korean spa once though. Actually twice.
