13 hours. That was how long Terry Crews — the man with impossible muscles, the Brooklyn Nine-Nine icon, the former NFL player — could spend in front of a screen without moving. From 10 PM one day until 11 PM the next. Without stopping. 😶
On The Diary Of A CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett, Crews admitted it without filters: for years he kept secret a pornography addiction that began when he was 12 and kept growing in silence precisely because no one knew about it. In 2010, his wife Rebecca King-Crews confronted him over an infidelity he had hidden for a decade. She asked him not to come home again. That was the breaking point. 💔
Crews sought help at a specialized center in Phoenix, Arizona, went through individual therapy, couples therapy, and a 90-day sex fast. In 2016 he made it public with a Facebook Live video titled ‘Dirty Little Secret.’ Today he has been in recovery for years and uses his story to speak openly about men’s mental health. 💪
