Unlike most addictions an addiction to porn can remain a secret for many years before being discovered by a partner.
The partner may experience a complete chock, and the addicted person might have been struggling alone for a very long time to quit without any success.

It breaks my heart when I hear that we should stay quiet about the things we struggled with (especially as a woman) to protect our reputation.
––
What reputation?
––
I carry Jesus.
He is inside of me.
He is my reputation.
I am His ambassador of Him (2 Cor 5:11-21).
Therefore, I will speak about the things He set me free from. No one but Jesus led me on a path of healing and I will stand on the rooftops and shout for freedom, and for the freedom of so many girls that I encounter on my journey in this life. Meet me and you’ll know I don’t hide well (although I tend to be pretty quiet, 83% introvert over here — anyone else an #introvert?). I speak the Truth and I am so passionate to speak up against anything that creates space between God and me. I want Him to overtake my life and ooze out of me. His Light to shine through me. I am here on this earth for no other reason but to glory Him and for Christ’s love to lead the way I live my life. So my reputation, what people think of me honestly does not matter – HE MATTERS.

With that said, I’ve partnered up with @fightthenewdrug to speak PRO-LOVE. Anything that takes away from real love, I will fight with all of me. I’ve walked a broken path of masturbation, soft porn (movies & books), lust, and fantasies and all of these things are perverted and sad attempts of Satan to distract us from the real intimacy and gift we have in Christ. Those sad attempts led me to believe I was alone. Isolated. I struggled with low self-esteem. Anxiety. Depression. Suicidal thoughts. I lived and breathed fear. All my years of weeping on my knees — pleading God to set me free, to send me someone that would speak out loud against these things resulted in awkward silence –– NO ONE wanted to speak up. It was shameful for a woman to say something lest her reputation be ruined and people see her different in the church. MY GOODNESS. The body of Christ is meant to be a safe place where we can lean on each other, confess, and equip each other!!! ––
Well, fast forward to today, I see what God had been doing all along — He was preparing me, my voice and my story so that I could be the one who SPOKE > cont. below
You don’t belong being stuck in a porn addiction. Staying stuck and living that lifestyle is more painful and more difficult than any change you could ever make in your life.
⠀
You might not know what changes you need to make, heck there might be a side of you that wants to quit so bad, and a part of you that could never imagine giving it up. That’s okay, I was there too.
⠀
If part of you wants to keep holding onto porn, that’s okay. You just need to crave change MORE than you crave porn.
⠀
From my experience, once you begin to make changes, even if they are the wrong ones or you have no idea what you’re doing, you will begin to CRAVE CHANGE more and more.
⠀
How?
⠀
We’re supposed to change, it’s not unnatural. Everything around us is always changing, the only way to lose is to resist change.
⠀
You just gotta start wanting change even just 1% more than you want to keep looking at porn. That 1% will go up as you progress down the path of becoming who you’re really meant to be.
The question you ask shouldn’t be “How do I quit porn?”
⠀
If that’s the question you keep asking, the answer will always be, “You can’t.”
⠀
The question you NEED to be asking is, “How do I create a better life for myself?”
⠀
In a nutshell, personal development is the key to creating a better life for yourself!
⠀
If you aren’t going through any personal growth whatsoever, then THAT needs to be your focus because without it, porn will remain a part of your life as long as you live.
⠀
When we don’t grow, we don’t change!
The human mind can only handle a limited amount of concentration at any given time. It’s impossible to focus on all areas of your life at once.
⠀
With that being said, if porn and other sexual fantasies are often on your mind and they’re really present in your life. Odds are your life is really lacking substance. A life that lacks substance is pornography’s best friend because it has the most room to operate.
⠀
That’s why people that just focus on removing pornography always fail, a big reason why porn there is because there’s nothing else going on, and if you take porn away without adding anything to your life (which doesn’t work) you’ll be back indulging in porn in no time.
⠀
As stated above, the minds ability to concentrate is limited. Once you start adding new meaningful things in your life that move you forward towards your goals, you will have to make a choice as to what path you want to go and it can’t be both. Either you achieve your goals in life, or you live the rest of your life a helpless victim.
It doesn't matter how many times you've failed, how much shame@or guilt you feel or how many people you have hurt through your addiction. Recovery is possible. I beat 15 years of porn and masturbation addiction and I show men how to do the same every day. Visit my YouTube page and learn the nitty gritty my story. It wasn't easy to tell, but If it inspires one person to begin their recovery in earnest, then it was worth it.
Don't be ashamed to ask for help!

Pornography and Masturbation Addiction is real. Occasionally, counselors will send me messages citing studies and claim that I have a religious agenda and when they find out that I'm not religious, they revert to accusations of pseudoscience.If only they knew how overdrawn my give a f**k bank account is. * When I first sought help of my problem, counselors and "professionals" were of the opinion that "it doesn't" exist. Thousands of men have been laughed out of therapist offices, ridiculed by those they trust and told to just "stop watching it and it will go away". She help was offered it was help to "make them more comfortable with their sexuality" ,"undo their religious conditioning " or " change their beliefs about pornography". The moment a treatment professional - no matter how many alphabets he or she has behind their name implies that you should "fake it till you make it" or pretend that your problem doesn't exist- run far away from them.

Wives are experiencing trauma, Husbands are developing unrealistic expectations of sex, marriages are failing, kids are throwing their potential away because of the proliferation of pornography in our society. We are medicating our trauma, our frustrations, our stress, our loneliness with porn. You cannot ignore it. If you are struggling- seek support for it from someone who understand the problem and has overcome it, get it under control and move on with your life.
