Hey L,
This month, as we in the United States celebrate and reflect upon our nation's story of independence, we are given an opportunity to contemplate the meaning and cost of freedom. As our history reveals, freedom often requires sacrifice, difficult choices, and a certain degree of conflict.
This reality holds true not only for nations but also for individuals seeking freedom in their own lives, whether it is freedom from debt or freedom from compulsive, destructive behaviors.
Consequently, when talking about unwanted sexual behaviors, whether that means p*** use or other problematic sexual habits, many people begin with one simple goal:
Stop the behavior.
Admittedly, that's very understandable. After all, such behaviors are very disruptive and usually shame-inducing. They create chaos in relationships, work, and one's spiritual life. But stopping is not the same as healing.
And that is where a critical fork in the road appears: Sobriety vs. Wellness.
Now at first glance, these might sound like two sides of the same coin. After all...
- Shouldn't sobriety lead to wellness?
- Isn't stopping the behavior a key part of getting better?
Well... yes and no.
