Sexual Addiction-Men!

 

 

Recognizing the Problem

 

We share a common experience of engaging in sexual behaviors, which are demoralizing and demeaning to another, or ourselves, which we feel unable to stop.  We have sacrificed relationships, jobs, or our humanity, and yet we continued to engage in these damaging and compulsive sexual behaviors.

 

We had built a wall of lust around our hearts that gave the illusion of connection. We felt safe, but we remained alone inside our prison. Unconsciously we felt we were somehow broken, that we were different from others and not normal. Sex with ourselves or with others gave us a false sense of acceptance and thus the cure to our worthlessness.  We needed a constant supply of sexual activity to stay cured. To lust is to live. Lust had became the most important thing in our lives. Some of us were willing to risk and lose everything to get and keep it. Only when we came face to face with the truth that lust was a liar did we become willing to let it go. Lust promises to connect us with others and make us whole.  But it never does.

 

The Solution

 

We have accepted that we cannot control our lustful thoughts and behaviors in our own strength.  We have learned that through the power of Jesus Christ we can live pure lives, one minute at a time and one day at a time. If you identify with these issues, and if you are weary from your struggle, then we invite you to fellowship with us as we daily seek the Lord's guidance on our journey of recovery from sexual addiction.
