The concensus among matrimonial lawyers and psychotherapists, dealing with broken relationships is that Internet abuse plays a rapidly increasing part in seperation and divorce and that in fifty percent of cases pornography is involved ...... ten years ago the issue, in divorce cases, did not exist.

First Steps to Recovery:

Finding confidential help and support for porn addiction and can feel awkward and embarrassing. The sense of shame experienced by both addicts and their spouses or partners often stands in the way of taking the first steps towards recovery.

Talking to someone knowledgeable in dealing openly and honestly with your feelings around the impact porn addiction is having on you, your relationships and even your career and family life, can help you begin the process of recovery.
