Where to start... ??
How about this; I know that I am addicted to sex (thought life, porn, masterbation ~ and on and on!).
I'm 40. I started down this path in my early teen years. I got married at 30. I started a family, and about 5 years into marriage it REALLY got out of control. I hope I hit the bottom earlier this year when I was "found out" by my spouse. I've been "in recovery" since then (and occasionally stuggling with it).

Today it is 64 days since i made my new bottom line mark. No porn, no masturbation(self inflicted orgasm)
I maintained my sobriety these 64 days. For this i am grateful to the SAA and SLAA communities. I am also grateful for all people on this site and to Marnia for hosting it and sharing her insights on brain chemistry and so on. I am also grateful to the higher power or God or whatever you want to call it.

I now have five days of sobriety. Back on the wagon again! I have a friend in California who does long distance Reiki treatments and she gave me three as a holiday gift. I believe that this has helped. It is truly amazing what can be done.

I've been trying to stay on the wagon since the first of December. I've only been able to go about three days without falling off. I notice that when I'm active and occupied I'm ok and sober, but the minute I become bored or anxious I fall off and masturbate. I've also noticed that I often will masturbate as a sedative. I've been struggling with various degrees of success for the past couple of years. Somehow, I'd like the New Year to be different.
