Been without porn for six months.... I didn't make a post to the Milestones area at my 100 days because it honestly didn't feel as real then. Feels a bit more real now.
My formula? Pretty simple. Therapy group once a week, couples therapy every three weeks, be unafraid of personal change as much as possible, communicate communicate communicate, and post here and read when possible.
I don't have (or really, allow) any formal 12-step stuff in my recovery life, I don't believe addiction is a disease, and I do believe addiction is a choice. I really just try and be unafraid to make different choices and think in different ways, and practice that on a daily basis if possible. But I'm not perfect, and I try and make lots of room for that too.
I couldn't have gotten this far without such a great wife, either.

Congrats FB. You are doing great. I know it is painful sometimes. It sounds like you've put together a great support system. Just keep on doing what you are doing. - Wes
