Description

Dr. Rob and Tami discuss whether a listener is truly living a sober life. The listener asked if it’s okay to masturbate to pictures of their own body now that they’re sober from porn. Dr. Rob weighs in on his interesting thoughts on the matter. Dr. Rob also answers questions about when is a good time to initiate intimacy with a SA, and much more.   TAKEAWAYS: [:45] My addict is doing “borderline” sketchy behavior but hasn’t actually done anything or crossed a line. Should I be mad? [7:10] I’m a female SA in recovery and now I get off to pictures of my own body. Is this normal? [12:40] My SA is new to recovery. Is now a good time to challenge him on different ways we can create intimacy without sex? [21:50] I’m not ready to tell our immediate family about his addiction. Should we ever tell them? [26:45] I started watching porn when I was 8. I think I am a heterosexual, but I am not sure. How do I know for sure? [30:00] How long will it take my addict to “figure himself” out?   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
