Personal Stories from those affected by sexual sin
—by an Anonymous Female, age 40s
At some point after I was married I decided to keep a high accountability with my husband to cut out sinful practices, however, I found that accountability alone did not free me and I continued to be often mentally tormented/tempted etc. Eventually I shared quite detailed with a friend and that seemed to set me free to a large extent. I wish I had gotten the help many years ago so that my marriage would have been richer. My husband and I have enjoyed a much better relationship once I got past the passive/denial state of my condition and dealt with it. I would encourage anyone struggling in this area that there is freedom and it starts with honestly sharing your need with a TRUSTED councillor or very confidential friend. Even taking an opportunity to share in a manner such as this can be very helpful because it helps the writer to think through what has happened and that breaks denial.
