Is There a “Statute of Limitations” on Feelings, Betrayal Trauma and Disclosure?
In Episode 178, Mark and Steve address an all-too-common situation and question faced and asked by porn/sex addicts in recovery and their partners seeking to heal from betrayal trauma—"Should there be a limit on how long and how many times difficult feelings can be felt, expressed and processed; how long and how many times betrayal trauma can resurface, be confronted and shared; how long before Disclosure cannot be asked for, or additional Disclosures requested? Is there a "statue of limitations" on these things? A PBSE listener—the partner of a porn/sex addict—asked Mark and Steve a lot of questions around these issues:- Is there a limit on how long the partner of a porn/sex addict can express feelings, struggle with betrayal trauma or seek disclosure?- Are all these issues things a couple needs to keep proactively talking about?- Does everyone need to have a full disclosure? I'm not sure if I would even want that!- When will I know as a partner that I am "OK?"In this episode, Mark and Steve take on these and many more related questions.
