    In my experience it doesn’t work. Consequences might work it there were any. There are almost no behavioral consequences for him. You will be paying for his hooker habit and dealing with the trauma of sleeping in the same house with an abuser.

    I spent three years in couples therapy, private therapy, supporting his attendence at 12 step groups.…[Read more]

    He only does because he feels scared and ashamed to tell me what he wants me to do to him.

    Considering I know intricately word for word what he wants me to do I cannot see how he has not been able to express this….it’s his bullshit excuse to do what he does, then get off sexually on insisting on telling me again what he wants, and by s…[Read more]

    I’m in Melbourne Au and there doesn’t seem to be anyone there professionally to help with betrayal trauma. I’m only learning about this now and up until this point it’s been painful and confusing. My partner was into chemsex and often I was involved but it wasn’t something I liked and it hurt. He goes from being bisexual to straight to bisexu…[Read more]

    Hi Riee,
    The old “I’m going to die if I don’t have sex” rationale. Rest assurred…he will not die if he doesn’t ejaculate daily. 4 days is barely enough to get over a cold, much less the betrayal of your primary relationship. I’m more worried about you. You mind and body are telling you that you don’t want to have sex. Honor that. Don’t. You…[Read more]

    Hi Debbie,
    I’m so sorry for the trauma and shock you are experiencing. I remember the overwhelming feelings of surrealism. I woke everyday thinking I was in a real nightmare. I had to learn to physically ground myself by trying to feel each indivdual tow on the floor to stop the swirling thoughts and feelings of terror. My mind literally couldn’t…[Read more]

    Heartbroken 17,
    I remember feeling that way. In fact,in the beginning I remember begging God to show me a videotape of my husband with the strippers because I couldn’t really believe it was true. I never saw a videotape, but I spent three years of staggered discovery til both the therapists and I thought we had an accurate picture of all he had…[Read more]

    Dolores.. I have been where you’re at. It sucks. The big take away for me is that the possibility of a personality disorder is seldom if ever even presented as a hypothesis for this pattern of behavior. It should be. Most of the people treating these “Sex addicts” never practice any differential diagnosis. They don’t refer out. They treat the…[Read more]

About The Sisterhood Community

The Sisterhood Community is an extension of the Sisterhood of Support private forums website for partners of sex addicts.

So many women needed support for other issues and, because of financial constraints could not afford even the small monthly fee for the private forums.

Because my passion is to help women in every aspect of their journey through life I created this free website for anyone who needs support, resources, a place to share and the friendship of kindred spirits.
