Freedom Begins Here Blog

Pornography is 100% visual. Any pictures (art) related to it can be triggering, for the addict or the recovering addict. I, By The Grace Of God, have over 10 years sobriety from sex addiction. The 'tentacles' art was a trigger for me. I have learned how to deal with triggers so no damage done to me or my recovery, but what of those not as far along. I don't know that the "porn aint pretty" is a good idea. I am thinking about what my art might look like and it AINT nothing ANYONE should see. Hear yes, see no. Hear about the solution (not the problem, the problem is already known), hear about others (ES&H)experience, strength & hope about being free of this addictive sin. What it was like, what happened, and what it is like now. This should include both failures and victories.
I told myself that I was not going to get involved with this ministry, due to lack of time, but when "I" got triggered I felt part of my continued recovery is to speak up and help others.
