Healing from Betrayal: Navigating Pornography Addiction in Relationships
“One of the things I talk about a lot is as a measurement of healing is that you will know that pornography has taken a backseat, because both of you can talk about it as if you talk about sugar, or that you would talk about a movie when it loses its shame that way, when it's seen from what it really is, which means that it isn't strictly sexual, it's an addiction like any other.”
