Why Sex Addicts Isolate

Sex Addiction Boone, NCWe sex addicts tend to isolate because there is a cunning determination that we can lick this thing alone.  If only we try a bit harder, use more self-discipline, or try to solve all our distresses in life, we won't find ourselves back in that spot once again.
It isn't that we sex addicts can't quit.  We just can't stay quit.

There is something further than simple the pride of wanting to do it ourselves.  There is also shame and fear.  Who do we trust to talk about this stuff?  Who would understand.  Won't it risk that people will see us as the fraud we really are?

This is why a meeting of sex addicts such as SLAA in Boone, NC is so important.  We've all been there in the shadows.  There is no shame or judgment here.  We were once in isolation, too.  We have deep gratitude that the pain of our addiction finally drove us to the light.
