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."

Caller Adam's Question: "Hey! I'm a recovering SLA and by day I'm a physiotherapist. I was really intrigued when listening to an episode and B got really worked up when he talked about his first mentor in couples therapy. It made me realize that well, of course, there are schools and 'ideologies' in treatment of sexual addiction and betrayal trauma just as there are a lot of ideologies in physical therapy (I'll gladly rant about those) And so I thought, well what are those ideologies and how can I identify if my therapist is following a certain ideology? Now in a post-pandemic world where e-health is rapidly n expanding the availability of specialized therapy is greatly increased and thus the need to understand what might guide the therapist.  I'll gladly share my own horrible story about my addiction, denial, and now withdrawal on the show as well as how I found specialized help."

Caller Cody's Question: "Unique situation; my wife had a couple of affairs that she disclosed, about 2 years later, she discovered my porn and sex addiction. It's been 10 months of sobriety and we have decided to divorce. More minutia to the story. When she is sharing her feelings, I feel stuck with no good choices for trying to empathize. If I stay silent, it's the avoider coming through. If I respond “I know what that feels like” It comes across as me trying to turn the narrative on her. I do have empathy for the hurt I have caused her, how can I express it in a healthy way that does not minimize, deflect, project, etc?"

Caller Mckenna's Question: "What if I AM my husband's addiction? This is the simplest version of my question, but obviously there is SOOOOO much more to it! My husband is not addicted to pornography, alcohol or drugs, etc. He is addicted to me. It is the strangest thing to navigate. We are currently separated because I am drowning. I feel like I can't breathe with him in my life. And trying to get space from him has only made him try to cling tighter."
