Step 7: Ask a Higher Power to Remove Your Faults. As part of my #step7#work in #recovery from #porn and #sex#addiction I wrote a new non religious prayer to use. Maybe this can help others...as it does me
Been quiet!2025 has been focused on physical and emotional recovery. Today I found myself crying with an overwhelming sense of inner joy. I had made a decision to travel solo to another country and to do something just for me! I cried a little before I even started!

Deeply grateful for being present at a sponsee’s reading of their Step 1 to a group! Humbling to be present in the honesty and their story of how they reached the point of willingness
Last night I was home alone, that used to make me really struggle. just realised I didn’t hear a single thing from my addiction about it. those battles do get less in time! It does get easier ✔️
9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
This the capstone of step 8. Don't seek forgiveness bc it will help you. Seek it to grant freedom to the other person to do what they need to do. The ego must die.
So stunned! 3400 #followers now - very humbled to have so many people accessing my story and I hope it helps - take what you need and leave the rest! :-) appreciate everyone that’s struggling or on their path through recovery or a partner of an addict - THANK YOU
