By Ewan Since my last post about relapse, I stated that we need to be very aware that they could happen. This might not sound like good news, because when we are healing we want to keep moving forward. Saying that a relapse could happen does not sound very...

Written by William When I decided to take the SAST test the first time, I was curious to find out how much I was thinking about sex and how much it was consuming my time. It was obvious that I had an obsession and the test showed that I am a sex addict....

By Simon I have read Barnabas’ blog post on What Causes People to Change and I’ve been thinking about rewards and consequences for promoting change in our behavior. I also read through the Transvestic Career Path and thought about the fourth...

Though we mostly write about autogynephilia and crossdressing as a sexual addiction, we realize that there is great diversity among crossdressers. There are so many different causes, motives, and end goals for crossdressing. But it can be hard to divide crossdressers...

By Chris PB Quite recently I’ve been placed, or rather, put myself, into a series of “funks.” What I mean by that is that I’ve been put in a series of situations where I just don’t feel like myself. I’m overcome by sadness, by anger, or by anxiety. I’m stuck in...

Written by Ewan One of the hardest things about recovery is relapse. That is, after enjoying a period of not engaging in crossdressing thoughts or behaviours, going back to it. It’s frustrating: “Will I ever get rid of this in my life?” It’s demoralising: “I...

It occurred to me recently that a part of our recovery and healing process as former crossdressers should be to examine our hearts to specifically repent of our sexism, and ask God to transform our hearts and minds. Why do I say this? My experience with crossdressing...

1 Peter 3:15-16 – But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak...

Radical Cultural Shift We live in strange times. Not long ago, people who tried to overcome addictions were encouraged and their testimonies celebrated. People who fought against harmful gender stereotypes and sought to accept themselves for who they are were formerly...

I know the title of this article might seem a little like an oxymoron, but let me assure you from experience that it is not. If you have struggled with crossdressing addiction, like I have, getting yourself an internet filter for your computer will allow you to...

When I first started crossdressing as a kid, I immediately started searching God’s Word for guidance about it. Ever since that time 1 Corinthians 6:9 has always been of interest to me. It is not as well known as Deuteronomy 22:5 in discussions about crossdressing, but...

Sometimes what causes us to fail is simply having a wrong attitude and mindset about the whole process of overcoming crossdressing addiction or sexual addictions of any kind. I have found myself dropping into a false mindset often. At times, I focus too much on the...

This may be surprising to some of you, but one of the most common questions I’ve been asked since I started this website many years ago is: “Did demons cause my crossdressing desires?” Or other related questions like: “Am I possessed by a demon...

For Christians who have battled with sexual addictions like crossdressing throughout their lives, I think Mark 14:38 is a really emotional and powerful verse. Jesus said to the disciples, “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is...

Many of us today might feel like we are stuck in the worst period of history given our particular struggles. At no time in history have crossdressing and transgenderism been more accepted and celebrated than they are today. Even many people who don’t experience gender...
