I’m a 28 years old married man struggling with the addiction. The last time I was clean for more than a week was in 2017 - almost 10 years ago - when I was able to manage it for about 4 months.

At the time, as a Christian, I didn’t want to have sex before marriage. I’ve met a girl at my university who wasn’t Christian and things got complicated. That’s when the addiction took over again.

Nowadays, I can get 3 or 4 days without it, maybe a week. But I start to lose control shortly after, usually triggered by some emotional distress.
