    Hi nofap,

    I've come back to the forum (ok, I really never left) to post.

    Contrary to what was indicated on my last post/thread I didn't actually leave my husband. We had a horrible fight that night over P and his addiction and at that moment I was just done.

    I've taken some time to try to educate myself as much as possible about his addiction and the more I feel I understand the psychology behind the addiction the less anger I feel towards him even though it still hurts.

    He does truly want to stop this, and I'll do whatever it takes to get him into real recovery. That being said, I know we can beat this. The trick will be for both of us to keep our emotions under control.

    I have a flood of new questions to ask now and I think I'll even keep a journal here since I'm struggling with my own thoughts and emotions so much.

    You made my day! I was saddened by how your other thread ended. I have been married for 10 years and have 5 children. I truly hope your husband can start showing you on a daily basis that he is determined to heal himself. I hope he doesn't falter too much along the way.

    If it is of any help, you can read my original journal here...

    I recently had a 3 week long relapse and stayed away from noFap during that time. I now have a new journal. I guess I am hoping that having a new journal would allow me to take a different approach to curing my addiction.

    Thanks Justadude!

    Yeah, my last thread was a doozy, but I'm glad it turned out not to really be the end (although it was very, very close.)

    I'm sorry to hear about your 3 week relapse but the fact that you are back and trying again shows me that if my husband has a relapse, (I'm sure he will) that it's not the end. I'll read up on your past journal and will be following your new one. Thanks!!

    Hey Red! So glad to see you back again!

    But speaking of your husband, what concrete steps is he taking to show you he's trying to change? I'd highly recommend him starting his own journal at the minimum. I didn't think journaling would help me very much, but it turned out to be incredibly beneficial on so many levels.

    At any rate, welcome back girl :)
