#34 - Envy and Fear

Freud gave us the psychological term 'ambivalence' to make clear the capacity we all have to hold two emotions at once about the same item.

Envy and fear are two emotions that engulf porn and sex addicts, locking them within their harmful rituals of behavior. Non-sex addicts have their own role to play and experience envy and fear with respect to sex addiction in a way that helps to keep unwitting sex addicts unhealthy.

How do we escape this emotional trap? Find out …on this week's podcast.

Fathers are often the missing link to discussions involving porn and sex addiction. In the early days of life, the relationship with the mother is the focus. But, as the child matures fathers become increasingly important as they provide critical support to mothers and an introduction to a world beyond the mother-child relationship.

The greatest detective on television provided a structure of investigation useful for us in our quest to overcome porn and sex addiction. We must interrogate our own pattern of behavior in much the same way that Columbo examined the details of each his cases.

Find out what Columbo would say about ritual in porn and sex addiction…on this week's podcast.
