If you’re married to someone with intimacy anorexia, who’s withholding emotionally, spiritually, and sexually from you, you feel alone and feel disconnected. The pain and even trauma you experience from this are real. However, it is possible to receive healing for yourself and to move forward in life. It's your choice do so though. Healing is a journey and the 12 Steps are a part of that journey.

With Step Three, it about making a decision to turn our will and lives over to the care of God as we understand Him. It's a process for you to finally make a decision. Whether you are familiar with God or not, your processing is unique, and the decision is yours alone.

The human will is the most powerful thing you possess; it's what allows you to make decisions. You can say yes or no to light or darkness, healing or pain, right or wrong, support or loneliness. You may have tried your best to adapt, to change things, but you still feel hurt and alone in your marriage.

There is a God who loves you and has your best interest at heart. You can turn your will and life over to His care. He understands you and what you're going through more than anyone else can. He understands the pain, criticism, the sorrow, and loneliness you have. He understands your heart. You can ask Him for help in making decisions, in your relationships, and whatever you do in life. Cast your worries and cares on Him. Let Him start to show up and help you. Being amiable to what He says and to know Him intimately.
