Identifying & Managing your Porn use Triggers

Send us a text


Managing your sobriety is about Risk Management. Risk Managing
your Triggers. Just like many projects may include a discussion
about possible risks, they go on to consider what to do if those
risks manifest. So too, for you, where your aim is to achieve a
lifetime of sobriety.

You want to keep those old neural pathways shut down and not
reactivate or re-open them by constant merry-go-round relapses
and sometimes, binges. It begins with "Identifying" and "knowing"
your Triggers. Anticipate them and have a plan of action for
addressing them.

Carolyn Spring's articles are so good and helpful. They come to
you from a whole different field of Triggers, outside of the
foreseeable Sex, Porn, Love addiction patterns. You can learn
from her, about the underlying "sameness" of Triggers and action
you can take, no matter what may be the underlying recovery area
in your life. Take a look at her links:
