If you suspect that your partner, someone you love and trust most in the world, is hiding a secret life as a sex addict from you, it can be devastating and traumatizing. The world can feel like it’s crashing down around you. Many partners of sex addicts have been fooled by the promises made by the addict even late in recovery, and find themselves starting the process all over again. The broken promises, the secrets and discoveries, the continuous lying—either deliberately or by omission—can be the most debilitating aspects of sex addiction. Many betrayed partners talk about their feelings of shock, confusion, humiliation, and anger. Discovering the deception is a lightning bolt that forever changes their world.
Finally, there is a resource that can help partners whether they choose to stay in the relationship or not. Facing Heartbreak: Steps to Recovery for Partners of Sex Addicts (Gentle Path Press, 2012) takes readers through a series of specific tasks and exercises that educate, empower, and guide the partners of sex addicts through a process of recovery as they reclaim their lives from heartbreak and betrayal to hope and healing.
Sexual Addiction is a disorder that requires strategies to assist you in maintaining recovery. This show is to help you access the books, the experts and the people who are managing recovery with The 12 Step Program and Patrick Carnes Recovery Task Model that reinforces the steps you need to take to manage your recovery and take your life through the journey so that you not only conquer the "Addict" but develop into the person you were meant to be!
