Did my first session with counselor

I finally went to see a counselor for my addiction. Actually, I've been to a counselor before, but due to my own stubbornness would not continue to go. And that was like 4 years ago and I just kept feeding the addiction off and on promising myself that this would be the last time. Anyway, I think things are going to work out better this time. We had a good conversation of about an hour. A lot of things have come back to mind just in the short time we talked. For a while I've always wanted to deny that this problem started at a young age with me, but I guess it has. Even as a young child exposed to pornography it can cause permanent damage. When I say young I would say I was about eight years old. I guess it's not too hard to understand given how early childhood abuse can often manifest into the abused becoming the abuser at a later age. I'm feeling good about things right now, so I want to just keep it going. I'll check back in later.
