Chapter 4 – The Light After The Darkness

As a porn addict continues to master how to properly control the sudden surge of emotion, the light is continuously being seen in the midst of an intense darkness. There are many ways on how to recover from the darkness. The person just has to be patient and learn how to appreciate small things in his environment. The person has to understand that the darkness is a form of challenge that helps him be a better person; he just has to be persistent and consistent in attaining his goal to finally get out of the dark.

Since the chance of exacerbation or recurrence is high, the person has to be very careful in handling his emotions. The people around him also have to be sensitive and supportive all the time. The key is to master the coping mechanisms and continuously apply them in his daily life. It is also important to have regular psychological treatments under close supervision of a psychiatrist. It might take a long time to finally get everything back to normal, but the most important thing is to keep moving forward.

One important thing to keep in mind is the withdrawal syndrome that a porn addict might develop upon undergoing the treatment. A withdrawal syndrome is a group of symptoms caused by sudden reduction, separation, discontinuation, and separation from addictive substances. The symptoms vary from mild to severe, depending on the adjustment of the body. The symptoms usually appear during the adjustment period of the body.

Withdrawal syndrome is again traumatic and exhaustive for the person. Thus, continuous support should always be provided. Always explain to the person that what he is experiencing is normal and part of the treatment; it is also a good indicator that the light is approaching steadily. There is no sense of giving up at this point. Let the person feel that he has to be strong especially during this stage in order to promote permanent release from the disorder.

Some of the common withdrawal symptoms include anxiety, restlessness, irritability, fatigue, headache, poor concentration, insomnia, social isolation, depression, and loss of libido. It is important to make the person aware of these symptoms and the ways on how to deal with these in order to prevent recurrence of depression. The recovery from the symptoms might be very difficult for the person, which is why continuous sessions with his support group should be promoted in order to develop a sense of control, power, and hope.

In due time, the darkness will finally fade and the light will become more evident. It will be the most satisfying feeling for every person recovering from addiction. It is like winning against a battle; it is like having the best performance of your life; and it is like achieving the most coveted trophies in the world. There is no medal or award that could ever replace the value of the new life that has been gained.

It is also important to consider the ways on how to prevent porn addiction.
