Porn addiction

[Rickjones]

Recently I have been reading articles on addiction may it be drug, alcohol or something else. Surely addiction is not good at all but I find myself to be addicted to porn. I like to watch it for hours and read erotic stories.
My choices in porn and reading are basically straight and I am. Sometimes I watch and read for the entire day and even days to follow. This have negatively affected my thinking. And I hope to atleast think positively and behave normal with my family members, communities and in workplace.
I tried myself forbidding watching porn and it did worked for some extent but when I start watching porn again online it goes for hours and days. It is really hard for me to stop it despite knowing the fact it is making in my health negatively.
I will still try to stop myself to beat this habbit and limit myself to certain things in porn. Hopefully someone in the forum could understand. If you do then please pass on your views and what one should do to prevent any health hazard.
Do mention your thoughts here, would love to see them.
Take care and be safe amid COVID infestation.

I hear you totally bro. I quit smoking last year with no problem. Sex/porn/masturbation addiction (arguably all the same thing, although sex maybe separate) is a nightmare to try and overcome. It totally takes over every aspect of your life/being. I'm on SSRIs to reduce it, but all that does is make coming more difficult. I've been considering going to SAA meetings, but I don't know if I'd just be going to meet like minded people with the hope of having sex with them (seriously). I'm not saying porn is bad by the way ... I just think some of us with addictive personality traits can't handle it?

Thanks for replying. You are right, sometimes when you meet like minded people and start sharing similar stuffs to each other probably at one point they wont realise the difference of letting these things go away. I think that is why some of these meetings and its results to individuals can be negative or less effective. Seriously we should think of solutions to handle it probably. Probably doctors, psychologist or consultants can guide towards the solutions.
I am somehow trying to contol any abusive or sexual thoughts when I am not into it.

Lets us further see what others have to say on it.

I like the feelings too, I was here talking about addiction to porn. And the health effect it might cause, if someone is healthy and happy its fine. I am glad you wrote your feelings. Thank you for responding dear.

I'm always watching porn and cumin 2 or 3 times I have no choice nowadays wife doesn't bother with sex anymore

 

[silentfem]

sex is lust as need of body feelings just if one does 1 nighters easy to catch things so one has to know the other and have trust but if love is there makes sex more special

Of it gets in the way of other things in life and causes problems e.g. you avoid work due to it then it's bad. Otherwise it's just a hobby. If you aren't in a relationship then I suggest going down the gym, getting fit then going to a fetish club or swingers club at weekends.

For me I get addicted to the pleasurable feeling of the buildup but always feel disappointed after the orgasm. Have orgasmed just by watching porn alone when j was younger.

You are right Jonnya. I am hoping to see some good people in the Gym. We have no Fetish or swingers club here. Personally I am more of a private person, so not into swingers club. Sometimes the troubles are really bad also effecting work, 2 times I took break and tried to be calm for the bad feelings. It took me some hours to recover but not fully though. However, I am very much of a social kind and like to help others in life too, especially during their bad times. I like to be financially active, therefore, working for me is important and I try to pace myself to it.

How old were you since you started watching porn?

 

[Bigyin1690]

Porn ok can be very addictive tho patners not botherd about sex no more so an odd porn wank is good or the odd percy wank on here lol

Believe it or not - not until i went to university did i start using proper porn and lads mags circa late 1990's early 2000's on the regular, almost daily now to be honest. As a teen it was more nudist and naturist websites with pictures and literorica.com and other erotic story sites

An ex who I haven’t seen for a pretty long time and split up with 20 years ago will randomly email me a link to something on pornhub occasionally. I’m not a massive porn watcher but that will normally give me a boner before I even open the link.

 

[ukpeeper]

Waking is normal and some of us like to wank regularly which can involve the use of porn. Prefer naughty chat myself as your imagination can be better but use porn to get me started sometime.

 

[Derrybhoy33]

I've watched or looked at porn everyday since I was 13 ish. I've tried to stop especially since I had my children but I can't. Not even when my partner has been attentive was I able to. I wank to porn whether I've had sex or not. Now I'm looking for a real life exhibitionist to please me online and wank with me. Porn doesn't do much anymore.

I think the thing is on a personal level what I feed myself will control me if I let it. You have to put things into perspective, sex is not the only good feeling that can satisfy. Yes I agree there is a need in us that craves it but to pull ourselves away can be very difficult. I think the feeling of losing control in yourself especially to a man can be damaging. Pick some new hobbies isn't just going to make it go. Talk to a friend in private find someone you trust. It's like here this will feed the desire so perhaps not the best place.
Dont best yourself up we all struggle buddy.
