Talking About Your Addictions

A man says 25 minutes in: “My name is Matt and I’m a sexaholic. My disease manifests itself in fantasy, pornography, lust in all forms, objectifying, rubbernecking women, crossing boundaries, getting lust hits from calling massage therapists without planning to go to them.”

Twenty two minutes in, Elliott says: “My obsessions are S-M, voyeurism, exhibitionism. Three years ago, when I entered the program, I could not talk about those things. Today when I qualify at a meeting, I specifically state, “S-M pornography obtained on a computer at work.”

“My disease will flourish in secrets. If I don’t talk about this, that which is hidden continues to grow.”
