You have no idea how helpful it is to read your story and your struggles. I so appreciate your raw vulnerability and honesty with such a personal and sensitive topic. Since that is not something I have yet with my own husband, it not only helps me understand him more but gives me hope for him and US. I needed to hear of someone wanting and willing to not just forgive but accept and love her husband and stand with him in re-building what they both intended from the beginning. That has been my desire, but beyond hearing general synopsis of such success stories, I was left feeling so alone and unsure how to help HIM understand that even tho I'm hurting I really do love him and believe in him and want to be one, even in this awful trial. Your wife never wrote the posts, but you wrote enough about her and her love and support that even tho I do not know her I have a great love for her and revere her and hope to emulate her. I know I am not the first to be influenced by such an example, but I have to try to let you know your struggles and triumphs are helping others. I am waiting for inspiration for when to show my husband the things you have written. Thank you again. You are both so inspiring. Please never give up.Jennifernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3429080510056770885.post-37056067971073518612018-08-06T02:42:55.919-07:002018-08-06T02:42:55.919-07:00Sometimes it is really hard for doctor to convince...Sometimes it is really hard for doctor to convince patient's dear ones if the treatment goes slow that they can be cured.

As someone w...As always, your counsel is wonderful. As someone who has gone through the repentance process for this particular sin (writing stuff meant to titillate and submitting it online), I would add only one point of advice for this RM: do NOT go to the site and look up whether or not your story was accepted and published unless your bishop counsels you to--and even then, don't do it alone. (Honestly, I very much doubt he would ask it off you.) It will invite a powerful temptation to relapse; it will trigger those feelings and desires that inspired you to write and submit such a story in the first place, and those feelings will be overwhelming.<br /><br />I deleted my stories everywhere, but I sadly know they are not truly gone. I have no idea who might have saved them; I have no idea how many people even read them. Like feathers in the wind, I can't take everything back from that time. I can't undo the damage I did to myself and others. But that's how the healing power of the Atonement works when properly exercised. I had to repent. I had to confess to God and my priesthood leader. I followed my bishop's counsel in the process, and ultimately I had to let go and let the Savior do the rest. It was hard, but it was so worth it. <br /><br />I haven't returned to those sites, and I never will. As much as I have come to abhor the sins I committed during that time, I know that I am not capable of walking the ledge (aka checking to make sure my stories are truly deleted and no longer harming others) and slipping off. Besides, I have done all I could do and repented fully; everything else is in Christ's hands.

Thank you for sharing that. My husband and I ...Yes! Thank you for sharing that. My husband and I are blessed with a good bishop who is knowledgeable enough to know that he's not an expert on addiction. He has referred us to ARP groups that are focused on this particular addiction, and also helped to arrange counselling for each of us. I would also advocate both of those for any wives; attend the spouse and family support group in your area, and don't wait for things to get bad before going for counselling. If things are going well it can still be of great benefit as you work through things. Also, don't be afraid to request a different counsellor to your husband if you feel the need to.
