The Issue

Addiction to Porn/Sex/Love is quite devastating and to be able to overcome it is even more challenging at times. The stigma around it can make seeking the help initially difficult and it sure is not an easy road. Alcoholism and drug addiction was treated the same way before AA and now after many years it has come a long way as brilliantly portrayed on g.co/recovertogether. 

The addiction to Porn/Sex/Love is overlooked and deeply stigmatized. There are few resources that have helped people to overcome behaviors and have a huge fellowship spread across the world. Request you to have them included on g.co/recovertogether, as it would help to spread awareness. The more stigmatized the problem is, the more difficult it becomes to overcome. The recovery stories in these fellowships are a testimony to how countless have recovered once they were ready to change and have overcome this with so much more grace than is expected of someone who would be considered otherwise.

ICD 11 has considered sexual addiction as a fact - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5775124/

SMART Recovery considers it as an addiction - https://www.smartrecovery.org/sex-addiction/

An ACT interview stated a dark road that substance, hypersexuality leads to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajK7ZMmNse8&t=184s

The movie Thanks for Sharing also does a great job at showing what recovery in the 12 Step S fellowships is like. When a movie can do such a good job, support from an organization like Google will definitely be a way forward. 

There could be many families that do not have Christmas this year because of the ramifications of this and not even having access to information about how many have found help and have recovered. With support from many people I'm sure at least few thousand families will have a possibility to have a real Christmas by next year. 

This a call  to have the below resources included on your site to spread awareness and make recovery from porn/sex/love as accessible as porn/camsites/escorts before it gets too late for someone.
