Well since I had the talk with my husband he has been doing fairly well. I feel as though we have connected on an emotional level since we have talked. He has totally admitted to the problem and wants help. I have not contacted a therapist yet, but will be doing that.
My husband has had one incident the other morning before work. I caught him in the act and we talked about it later that night and I think we got a lot out of it. He understands more where I am coming from I think.
It helps me just to know that he is so willing to get the help now. Willing to stop now.

Thanks for the update, Amber.  When you look, I would look for someone experienced in dealing with sex addiction and also coming from a Christian perspective. If you're interested in telephone counseling, I know of some options. Group support/accountability may also be really vital for your husband.
Prayerfully,

Amber Amber, I am just reading your posting now.
Do you care to give an update?
What has your husband done (if any) to get help?
Has he sought help in any tangible, observable way?
Did you follow through with finding a therapist?
I don't mean to bombard you with questions. It just seemed like you sensed a turning point with your husband's willingness to seek help for his addiction. Frankly, while "willingness" is important, "action" of some sort must always come next.
Again, I welcome an update as you have the time and feel comfortable doing so!
-Steve

Hi Steve,
Well.. no we did not go to a therapist, but.. he has stopped. He and I have worked together ourselves on being more open with eachother and we have conected really well. He has not looked at anything in so long. I know for sure yes that he has not. Sometimes I still have suspisions, but I think that is just me because it went on for so long. Things have been very good for us.
