{February 2014}

I discovered my husbands pornography addiction over ten years ago, just a few years into our marriage. Little did I know then as a young wife that this addiction would escalate. I would have never guessed with that first discovery that we would be fighting this BATTLE ten years later. In my innocence I just assumed that after the first discovery that it would never happen again. I thought he could "just stop"!!! I knew nothing about sexual addiction, I knew nothing about the bad shame that drives addiction, I knew nothing about how his "acting out" would cause me intense trauma. I have learned so much over the years. I have educated myself on addiction and I am learning how to take care of ME!!!
