Since becoming more transparent and sharing my life online, building a community around my journey has become a huge part of who I am. But with that openness has also come moments of extreme vulnerability and distress.
The reality is that many people struggle with different forms of “addiction” in their lives. Some recognize them, some don’t, and some of us have to learn through painful lessons and choices that come from chasing dopamine, temporary relief, or an escape from boredom and uncomfortable emotions.
The hard truth is that addictions can lead us down incredibly destructive paths, often before we fully understand the impact they’re having on ourselves and the people around us.
I’ve always said: a mistake is a mistake… until you keep making it, and then it becomes a choice.
Throughout my life, I’ve experienced many different forms of therapy, but I never truly believed s*x addiction was something I struggled with until I was diagnosed by a therapist I deeply respected and had built a strong rapport with. Accepting that truth wasn’t easy, and neither is being this vulnerable about some of the biggest mistakes I’ve made with the world watching.
But one of the greatest gifts that can come from our struggles is using what we’ve learned to help someone else avoid the same pain. If sharing my story helps even one person who is “going through it” feel less alone, recognize their own patterns, or choose a different path, then every uncomfortable moment of vulnerability is worth it.
If you’re struggling and having thoughts that make you question your worth or whether you belong here, I hope you know this: you are loved, you matter, and your story isn’t over.
Keep shining your light 🫶✨️
