I started this blog because I couldn't find a resource that validated what I felt when I learned my husband was a sex addict. All I wanted was frank talk, no definitions, recovery speech, or minimization of what I was feeling. I hope you feel validated, heard, and understood when reading my blog posts. I try not to give advice; I share my experience with each topic to provide partners of sex addicts hope for their healing from betrayal trauma. To learn more, please read the "My Story" tab at the top of this page. If you like what you see and find this blog helpful, please share it with others; no one should feel alone on this yucky journey. I would love to hear from you. Please contact me at joy@betrayednotbroken.com. Most importantly, please remember you deserve to give yourself the time to heal well from betrayal trauma.
