Life Transitions

Secrets & lies
Hiding stuff?
Secrets and lies in a relationship are like hiding things in the dark.
When we keep secrets, it can make us feel ashamed, and sometimes that leads to bad habits or problems. It’s important to be honest and open, just like you would want your partner to be with you.
Think of honesty as the foundation of trust in a relationship. If you hide things or tell lies, it can break that trust. When you communicate openly, it helps both people feel safe, understood, and respected.
Being honest makes the relationship stronger and healthier. It's always best to tell the truth and clear the air when something is wrong.

How to spot a liar
Telling your secrets can set you free
Here are some tips to reduce porn use:
Talk to someone about it. Keeping it secret can make you feel worse.
Don't take your phone to bed. Charge it in another room and use a regular alarm clock.
Take care of your body with good food, enough sleep, and exercise. When you feel healthy, you're less likely to give in to temptation.
Find a hobby that makes you feel good emotionally, like drawing or playing sports.
Get an accountability buddy. Find someone you trust, and check in with them regularly for support.
Have something else to do when you feel the urge, like calling a friend, going for a walk, or spending time with your family.

The hidden porn epidemic.
Pornography is a subject that makes people feel deeply uncomfortable. But our discomfort in discussing it hides the fact that it has become a major problem.
The internet has given us access to all the titillating we could possibly imagine, and more. Every sexual curiosity or desire can be satisfied in seconds.
First it can make us unhapy with our relationships. The simple reason is that pornography is making our perception of what is normal when it comes to see and gives us unrealistic expectations of our partners.
And it results in many people feeling inadequate and notable, as they find it impossible to physically compete with what they see online.
Without wanting to, we become less contentwith our partners and less content with ourselves.
Porn use also pushes u out of alignment - very few people feel good about themselves afterwards.
