Geoff Steurer, MS, LMFT interviews Brandon, a man recovering from a decades long pornography addiction. In this episode: * Brandon share his most important advice to men struggling * He talks about the common excuses/reasons why men try and handle this on their own without getting help. * The role of agency in addiction - if we have the power to choose to stop, why can’t people just stop? * He talks about how early exposure and denial kept him from being healthy and honest about this as he grew into adulthood. * The importance about talking about this as parents and couples. * Brandon reveals his thought process for living a double life - pretending to be a worthy priesthood holder while secretly viewing pornography * Why forming a “band of brothers” in recovery is essential. Why telling one person about your struggle isn’t going to be enough to ensure long-term success. * Why you need a place outside of your marriage to talk about your struggles.
