Why on earth do you think this problem would improve by giving it to your domme? If you want your current relationship to work, stop trying to recruit her as your sponsor, and go get yourself some help. Making her responsible for YOUR addiction puts all the weight on her, none on you -- nice for awhile. But you know that won't work. It's your issue, only you can own it, only you can work it, only you can resolve it. I agree. It sounds like this issue goes beyond a bad habit and into addiction. There's no guarantee that this plan will work, and even if it does, it likely won't address any underlying issues or provide coping mechanisms, making relapse more of a risk, in my opinion. If it's a serious enough problem, and the OP hasn't been able to manage it on their own, professional help or a support group or twelve step program is probably a good thing to try. Plus, I think it could end up being very unfair to the domme to put responsibility on her. Loved ones of people with addiction or mental illness already often feel like they should be able to do more to help, even if they can't. This domme probably doesn't have experience working with addictions. If this plan doesn't work, it could end up looking like it was a problem with the domination when in reality, it would likely indicate a bigger problem. Don't get me wrong -- support from loved ones or a dom/me can be hugely beneficial. But it shouldn't be used as a substitute for professional help or assistance from people who are actually trained in dealing with this stuff.
