Sorry you find yourself here but you will get a lot of support and help from the folks on this forum. I agree with your assessment that your H is a sex addict and I know that has to be a hard thing to deal with. I don't have much specific advice except that I think establishing boundaries will be very important. There is a very good thread on boundaries somewhere on the newcomers forum so check that out if you get a chance..

We are all responsible for our contributions to M problems but never blame yourself for someone's addiction. You can't push anyone into addiction. Addictions are a result of poor coping abilities.

Remember that you can't "fix" him even though you want to help him. Only he can fix his problem with sex addiction. Focus your energy on changing yourself and creating a good environment for you and your kids. Some veterans will be by soon with a lot more wisdom than I have to offer but until then, hang in there and keep reading.
