If you
watch the show "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," or are familiar with popular
movies, you are probably familiar with the actor Terry Crews. Crews has
recently opened up about his battle with pornography addiction, posting a
Facebook video titled "Dirty Little Secret." In this video, he talks
about his addiction, stating that it really messed up his life in a lot of
ways. He says he didn’t tell anybody about it, and that allowed it to grow and
"get bad." When Crews realized the seriousness of his addiction and
saw the negative impact it had on his personal relationships and marriage, he
sought treatment and enrolled in a rehab program.
Terry
Crews is a very prominent and well respected public figure with a massive
following on social media. He has over 6 million followers on Facebook alone.
The fact that he is reaching out and educating so many people with his own
personal story is incredible. He is showing that you do not have to be afraid
to get help, and educating a lot of people on sexual and pornography addiction.
His openness and vulnerability is commendable, and hopefully it will encourage
people to seek help and treatment.
This
addiction is beatable - many celebrities like Terry, and every day people
are working to recover from this addiction. Everyone deserves to live their
life with sexual freedom and integrity. Check out our resources page at
L.I.F.E. Recovery International to see how you can begin your journey to
recovery today!
