Caller Crystal's Question: "Can we talk about Intimacy Anorexia? What is it? How does it show up with sexual addiction? Does it change the impact on the betrayed partner? Does the path of healing for a betrayed partner look different if they are impacted by intimacy anorexia? And does the path of healing for the relationship look different? I believe I've been in a relationship with someone with intimacy anorexia and there are many things that I can't relate to in my recovery group because my story is so different from theirs. I recently found a resource that lists characteristics of those with intimacy anorexia and was so relieved to have my experience so clearly laid out."
