well, 5 weeks since D Day. Blindsided by my husband of 16 years. I will spare the details but he has been addicted to porn, masturbation and chronic affairs since he was a teen. He immediately got into CSAT therapy right after my discovery, is going to 12 Step meetings multiple times a week, has a sponsor and STD tests all came back negative. We are going to church and are seeing God’s miracles everyday. I am seeing a husband I have never seen. I am seeing a man who talks, listens, is remorseful and attentive to my bad days. I guess we are in the honeymoon phase of recovery.

Welcome to BG!
It sounds like you and your husband are going in the right direction. Keep doing what you are doing. Have you set down boundaries?
I am glad you have your eyes open. Things may very well become more difficult as your husband continues to work out his overcoming journey. Stumbling is generally part of the process. Although I have heard testimonies where God supernaturally delivered people from this sin. Most of us have to go through the learning process which means stumbling.

well, 5 weeks since D Day. Blindsided by my husband of 16 years. I will spare the details but he has been addicted to porn, masturbation and chronic affairs since he was a teen. He immediately got into CSAT therapy right after my discovery, is going to 12 Step meetings multiple times a week, has a sponsor and STD tests all came back negative. We are going to church and are seeing God’s miracles everyday. I am seeing a husband I have never seen. I am seeing a man who talks, listens, is remorseful and attentive to my bad days. I guess we are in the honeymoon phase of recovery. I remember the honeymoon phase. I literally ABSORBED the porn spirit and became what he held me as spiritually for 15 years. In an instant!! We had 2 months of what they call hysterical bonding. It's sick, looking back. I had no idea whatsoever what had overcome me. My counselors didn't have much to say on it as they are church trained. If my addict had taken the steps in this phase that yours is we'd be much farther along. It's almost 9 mos. and he's only now creeping in to the real recovery. I hate him for this; for torturing me for so long, but I think I'm dealing with a narcissist here. I hope you crush this thing light speed, or Godspeed. Whichever is faster.
