Looking at addiction through the “Secure Attachment Cycle” helps us understand the “why” behind recovery. Addiction to pornography is more than just a “habit,” it is a coping mechanism for the stresses and triggers in our life. As we go through life and our needs are put at risk, we either turn to trusted friends/hobbies or compulsive/addictive activities and substances.
The only way we can find lasting recovery is:
1) figuring out what stresses/triggers are happening now and that we carry with us from our past
2) overcoming detachment by finding and reaching out to a trusted support network
