Episode #24: Porn Addiction

This week I got the chance to speak to Joshua Shea, the author of
“The Addiction Nobody Will Talk About” about his story and
experience with porn addiction. On the outside Joshua Shea was a
city councilor as well as the founder of a popular regional
magazine and film festival in the city of Auburn Maine. But the
addictions Joshua had been trying to hide for so long finally came
to light when he was arrested for possession of child pornography
in 2014. Joshua now devotes his time to trying to raise awareness
about porn addiction through his book and his website
recoveringpornaddict.com It’s important to note that the
Diagnostic Statistical Manual for Psychiatric Disorders for
therapists did not include sexual addiction as a clinical
diagnosis. However, not being included in the DSM-V does not mean
it doesn’t exist.I wanted to talk to Joshua about his struggle with
porn an alcohol and learn more about the events leading up to his
high profile arrest. Enjoy the full interview.Subscribe to the show
