Felt Anger about my Ex less than a week after breaking up

Day 8

Why is it acceptable to deal with a drinking problem but the moment we mention a porn addiction, we’re shamed? I was labeled as a cheater using porn and OFS, and was shamed for making lustful comments that my porn addiction fed. And the moment my partner found out, cut off all communication and refuses to hear my story and how far I’ve come with this addiction. I was motivated to join this app because I thought I would win her back by showing proof of how I’m clean, but being on this app has allowed me to realize I am capable of hard stuff, I can challenge myself, and I will real sooo many good benefits from it that she will regret the day she left me and not support me through my journey as I supported her through her alcohol sobriety journey

After we broke up, I admitted to all my friends about my addiction and none of them judged me for it and stated “we all do at our age”

In mainstream media that is ^^

Regardless, your addiction is valid— it’s real. Don’t let someone gaslight you into thinking it isn’t. Before you know it, (give it a few more years) it will be revealed just how many people have porn addictions

Porn and sex work industry is a double-edged sword. Porn is social taboo to discuss, yet everyone (literally everyone) watches or indulges in it. Sex workers are glorified for their independence and ownership with their profession but no one wants to date them. At the same time, sex workers are also criticized for their work, but by the same men (and perhaps women) who finance their success.

For the first time since breaking up, I feel happy! I felt a dopamine rush from doing a cross fit workout. My second workout at this new gym ever and everyone is so welcoming.
