Relapsed

Dude, I'm a Christian. Active in ministry, you might say. We are all human. It sounds like this is a pattern in your family, so that could be a factor. I don't know the whys of why we do what we do. I either get really horny or anxious, scared, mad, overwhelmed or whatever....then down the rabbit hole I go. The blessing for us as Christians is that there is grace and mercy. Tomorrow is a new day. We start fresh and try again. I just keep trying. I would say you are doing great by getting to 2 months!

 

We will win this battle against demons! Light is with us!

• "The Light shine on us all."

 

I'm a Christian in my 40's and I've been fighting this addiction for a little while now and all I can say is that we MUST use the tools available to us to fight with! I compare it exactly to going to war with just your fists versus artillery and the cavalry!

- Weekly SA meetings - To find one, go to https://www.sa.org/meetings/

- Talk with a CSAT (Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist)

- Get an accountability partner

- Online help (recovery books, workbooks, self-help books, Youtube videos, etc.)

- Start a journal about your recovery.

- Put safeguards in place to help you stay sober. (internet firewalls, phone safeguards, etc.) Think of your weaknesses and eliminate them.

 

I recommend using the pluckeye extension to start your streak. It will block all images and videos from the internet for however long you want.
