John’s Story

John talks about his sexual addiction, how it began, and how it affected his life.  He also does a great job describing his dysfunctional family of origin.

“It was like someone lit a bomb and threw it in my life, I was totally absorbed by it, totally sensantionalized by it and it just mushroomed my sexual addiction…” – John; speaking about the first time he discovered his father’s pornography.

Part 1

 

John discusses his denial, losing his marriage, hitting rock bottom, and entering recovery.  He talks about attending his first recovery meeting and what recovery has done for him and his life.

“I’m at the bottom, I’ll do anything.  And she suggested I go to a meeting.” – John; speaking about the advice his knowledgable therapist gave him about his sexual addiction and getting help.
