Starting Over

Day 0

I messed up again. I quit porn using a different app about two years ago. My wife found out and it almost broke us. I used the app, mindfulness meditation, exercise, and therapy. It worked. And then about a year ago I stopped. Life got busy, stressful, and I thought I had control over it. I got rid of all the opportunities like extra devises, computers, apps that cause me trouble. But then about 6 months ago I found a new opportunity using my wife’s iPad and I spiraled. It wasn’t often, maybe a few times a month when she would go out. But that was enough to break us again. She found out I’ve been using her iPad to watch porn a few days ago. I don’t know that she will ever trust me again. But whether she does or not I’m tired of always self sabotaging with porn. So im starting over. And I hope Quittr helps me kick porn for good.

Never late to start taking control of your life. One day at a time man you got it

Kyle, My wife found out, like three times. It was not easy to come up clean. It was one of the hardest conversations I’ve ever had. We talked and she said. “Am I not enough?” And that broke me. I’ve relapse a few times but now it’s been more clear to me that every time I did it was bc of stress, boredom and no goals in life.. so now each time I am stress I will tell my wife is go time. Where she wants or not lol or if I’m bored I will play video games or go workout your wife will have some trust issue at the beginning but just talk to her heart to heart. Also what has helped me it’s that if I get the urge I think “that is someone else daughter, niece, mom” or it could be mine… and that is just a turn off. I had trick my brain to change. Hope this helps

That sucks. I know how difficult that conversation is. I don’t know if my wife is ultimately going to leave or not. But she’s here this morning, so I’m grateful and I’m going to take it one day at a time.
