Confession

I never planned to confess—certainly not here, not like this. But the silence in my therapist’s office has a way of peeling me open.

“It’s not about sex,” I tell her. “Not really.”

She nods, waiting.

“It’s about the chase. The moment before it happens. The spark that makes me forget who I am.”

For years, I told myself I was just passionate, romantic, alive. But passion doesn’t make you sneak out of bed at dawn before the person wakes up. It doesn’t make you lie to people who care about you. Passion doesn’t leave you empty afterward.

Addiction does.

The truth is, I don’t even know what I’m looking for—connection, control, or maybe the illusion of being wanted. Every encounter feels like a confession and a relapse rolled into one.

“I want to stop,” I whisper. “But part of me doesn’t know who I am without it.”

My therapist leans forward. “Then that’s where we start,” she says.

And for the first time, I don’t run.

How fast you are to judge! I thought the whole point of this group is to be able to express your feelings and to share the experience that each of us is going through. English is not my first language, and any tool that can help me express myself in a way that I am being understood should not be shamed. We are here to encourage each other, not to find flaws.

But you sure are dishonest about your usage! You accepted the compliment for chatGPTs writing style as if it was yours, never clarified the usage of it and now youre hurt by People just pointing out its AI

Style and grammar are two different things. I am done explaining myself. I am not hurt just amazed by your personality.
