What works?
Over the last few years, the number of books and websites claiming to explain or cure pornography addiction have multiplied quickly. So how can we sort good from bad, helpful from hurtful, good deal from rip-off?
We need you! Please use the submission form to tell us about resources that you have used either to help a pornography user in recovery or to help yourself. We will then create space for people to read about your experience, post comments of their own, and participate in a quick poll about it. It is important to understand that different types of help work for different people. Look at our Resources for Recovery page to read about general categories of resources and how they can work together in recovery. Remember that one person's experience is just one person's experience. You may have a totally different reaction, and that's alright. Although we do not endorse any particular resource, we promise to share our reviews as you share yours. |
