My name is Daniel. I am 65, live in Houston, TX. and was born and raised Catholic, I grew up in New Orleans and I even considered joining the priesthood in High School. I am working with databases and information in the Oil and Gas Industry, but I hope to retire in the next few years.
I enjoy gardening, woodworking, and nature (hiking, learning about plants/animals). I have been married for 40 years and have two grown sons.
I have been addicted to porn for about 40 years and a compulsive sex addict for closer to 50. I also suffer from manic-depression, anger issues, and anti-social tendencies. I have tried, on my own, to become free of my sex/porn addiction for more than 20 years, with some success, but always falling back. I have my depression under reasonable control through medications, but the sex addition lapses often lead to depression.
My goals are relief from my addictions and to free myself by turning my life and my will over to God and to follow where he directs me. My “fear” is that my shame will cause me to give up, that my resolve and self-discipline will leave me even more depressed and addicted.
