Description

Dr. Rob and Tami share their thoughts on what to do if none of your friends or sponsors are picking up the phone in times of crisis. It’s a horrible situation to be in, but the urges do pass. Whatever you do, do not go out that door to go act out. If the people in your life aren’t showing up for you in a way that you need, then go out and find the right sponsor and people for you.   TAKEAWAYS: [:30] We signed a commitment letter. He’s broken it. Now what? [10:15] Our children are in therapy. Should we tell the therapists about my husband’s sex addiction? [13:00] My job has been stressful and a big trigger. What can I do? [20:15] Addiction is a disease of disconnection. If you disconnect, you’re probably going to act out. [23:50] My anger is so intense. I am so angry. How can I feel better? [29:45] When you’re in your anger, you’re in your healing. Dr. Rob explains what he means.   RESOURCES: Seekingintegrity.com Email Tami: Tami@Seekingintegrity.com Sexandrelationshiphealing.com Intherooms.com Out of the Doghouse: A Step-by-Step Relationship-Saving Guide for Men Caught Cheating, by Robert Weiss Prodependence: Moving Beyond Codependency, by Robert Weiss Sex Addiction 101: A Basic Guide to Healing from Sex, Porn, and Love Addiction, by Robert Weiss Cruise Control: Understanding Sex Addiction in Gay Men, by Robert Weiss
