The second in our three-part series on Getting Started, focuses on asking for help. Whether it's a phone call, a text, or a face to face meeting we need to bring others into our struggle with pornography. Pornography addiction thrives in isolation and the way out is making connection. See episode 040 Getting Started Pt 1: Hitting Rock Bottom to listen from the beginning.

0:00.0 | Porn Free Radio Episode 41. Getting Started Part 2, Phone a Friend. |
0:08.9 | Welcome to Porn Free Radio. This is the podcast where motivated guys who want to quit looking at porn, get hope, and take action. |
0:18.1 | Even if you feel lost right now or out of control, you can recover and live a |
0:22.8 | meaningful life, free from shame and full of love. Now here's your host, recovered porn addict and |
0:29.5 | podcaster Matt Dobbschutes. Welcome to Porn Free Radio. I'm so excited to have you back. This is part two of our |
0:40.9 | getting started series. We started last week in episode 40 with hitting rock bottom. And today |
0:48.0 | we're covering what it means to ask for help in an episode entitled Phone a Friend and why that's important |
0:56.9 | for us after we've hit Rock Bottom to reach out to others. We'll get into that in the moment, |

1:49.1 | get a look into what you're looking at, the links and things like that on a weekly basis, |
1:55.8 | and it provides the basis for a conversation about what you've been up to. And the truth is, when you have this |
2:05.3 | working and you have a partner in place, you do a lot better. There's more friction between you |
2:12.3 | and that impulse search to just look at porn or do some, you know, image searching, things like that, |
2:20.3 | knowing that that other person is on the other end of the line, getting your, getting your |
2:24.8 | internet report weekly is just a really powerful deterrent to that impulse searching. |
2:32.9 | Now, you can learn a lot more about Covenant Eyes in an episode |
