So, I've realized today that I'm a porn addict. It destroying my relationship with my wife, who I love SO much. She is literally everything to me.

I'm afraid I've ruined our chances of starting a family. I'm afraid I've ruined myself. I'm afraid that even if I break this addiction, that I'll never want real sex again.

It just seems so much easier to give up, to not fight, to just say "whatever, if she has a problem with me being me, then that's her problem."

I don't like those thoughts, but I don't know what to do. I'm almost 38 years old and I don't feel happy with myself. My life has turned around so much, but this is something I'm afraid will never be the same.

So, I'm reaching out for help and information from other sufferers and recovered addicts. I know to fix it I have a tough road ahead.

What did you do to help get through it? How long before you started being able to have sex again?
