    Hi Dan. Thanks for your question. I'm sorry to hear about the struggles that you are going through. You can of course use this forum as a place to ask if anyone is looking for an Ally. Now you had mentioned that the people in your life have been unsupportive of your recovery efforts. I am sorry to hear that. If you haven't already tried this then I might recommend getting into contact with a local Men's Group for support or speaking with a qualified counselor - secular or religious - as they can also serve as an Ally for you. I am going to include a few links below. Two are for articles on our site that walk you through what to look for in an Ally and how best to find one. The third link is for a secular community of people who are all trying to quit their pornography addiction together and stay clean. Their Community Forums might be very helpful for you as there are a lot more folks there than are on this forum and they tend to be very supportive of one another.

    Try one of the sex addiction 12 step groups. Some of their members use this software. The ones I'm aware of are Sexaholics Anonymous (officially no sex or masturbation outside of heterosexual marriage), Sex Addicts Anonymous, Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous, Sex and Porn Addicts Anonymous (fairly new), and two I'm less familiar with, Sexual Compulsives Anonymous and Sexual Recovery Anonymous. SLAA and SAA have different definitions for sobriety for different people. SRA formed from SA with more flexibility on homosexuality and marriage, and SCA originally was for gay/bisexual men. I do know SA groups in Seattle that accept gay men in partnerships, and ones in NYC who accept straight men living with women prior to marriage.
