Description

Trigger warning: Some listeners who have experienced betrayal trauma may find the accounts in this episode to be graphic and/or disturbing.For this episode of Consider Before Consuming, we sat down with Libbi (name changed to conceal her identity), an anti-porn activist and follower of Fight the New Drug, to discuss her experience of being married to a porn addict. At first, Libbi says she and her ex-spouse were working on addressing his compulsive pornography habit, but later decided to go their separate ways after he revealed that he was never sexually attracted to her—and believed he might never be. Listen to Libbi's vulnerable story as she opens up to our podcast host, Garrett Jonsson, about life with a porn addict.During the conversation, Libbi displays some raw emotion, which is understandable due to the trauma she experienced—listener discretion is advised.Libbi is just one of the over 4 million Fighters worldwide who have recognized the harms of pornography and have pledged to do something about it.
