Porn addiction

I think its always possible to give people chances, especially if youre doing things to change this time and she can see it too. its not possible to know what will happen, but as long as you keep trying your best and do the things you are able to, thats what matters. if she notices then thats amazing for both of you, if not, youre also working on yourself and you matter, the things you feel matter, and your working towards a better happier life, that really means something.

Me and my husband went through this same thing. It is so important that you are consistent in the things you do and say because trust has been broken. We did marriage counseling for this and my husband used the Everyman’s Battle book. It’s a good place to start! We also went back to church and over time, the Lord restored our marriage. It takes time and commitment on both people. So yes, there is hope. 🧡

I also went through it with my husband which fueled my ocd. I was also pregnant as well. It was miserable no affection and problems in bed. I had so many horrible feelings running through my head it was hard to focus on myself and soon to be baby. Many times I wanted to leave. After I had my baby he acted like he still didn't care about my feelings wich fueled my alcohol addiction. I had help with others with my newborn. It was awful. Plus it was during covid. I almost left him. He wouldn't talk about it always got defensive and spun everything around on me. Finally admitted he had a problem. I had such a hard time with it and went to many dark places in my mind. It takes time to heal and move on for me I struggled to quit drinking but it took a lot on my part as well. At least you are taking the steps to stop and talked to her about it. As for her it depends on how she feels. Hopefully you can get help through therapy together.

I think many struggle with this. You’re not alone by any stretch. It’s probably one of the most prevalent problems in society. It has been normalized in many ways. Sexualization is everywhere. Look to the Lord and flee lust. Like, literally, flee. Remove tempting situations. Remove yourself from places that stimulate lustful thoughts. I think, for men especially, lust isn’t something you can just white-knuckle your way through. It also doesn’t mean you don’t love your spouse or significant other or that you don’t find them attractive. It’s a dopamine release like a drug; it’s an innate urge (it seems) that is one of the most common and difficult things to overcome. You may have to take what feel like drastic measures, removing yourself from your phone or access to things or the internet or social media, but it’s worth it. Fight on, my friend.
