This document discusses how sex addiction can impact relationships and the process of recovery for both the addict and their partner. It outlines the three legs of recovery as the addict establishing sobriety, the partner surviving trauma, and the couple rebuilding trust or separating. Key principles for couple recovery include accepting responsibility for one's own actions, supporting each other, and rebuilding intimacy over time. The recovery process involves three stages: impact, making sense of meaning, and ultimately moving forward together or apart.
