I can’t seem to break it
It’s hard for me to open up, but I’m addicted to porn and sex. I can’t stop watching it. I have tried to stop many times but eventually I give in . It’s starts little and then escalates to something I have to do almost daily. I need help, I need understanding.

I'm sorry to hear it causing you so much stress.
Sex in itself is natural, and healthy.
The problem lies in it becoming a fixation , the gratification is only instant and then you chase more.
It's difficult but if you want a healthier, realistic relationship with sex, it's important to start limiting how much you watch daily, until you finally stop, delete all the apps, and put your energy into something more physical 🩵

Hi there,
Thanks for being brave enough to talk about it.
For some men, sex becomes a way to self soothe. Sometimes there's a difficult emotion and sex becomes a way of dealing with that feeling.
This may or may not be true for you, but it's still worth exploring. You are part of a supportive community. My dm's are open if you'd like to talk about stuff

Hi, I will copy and paste exactly what i wrote on another post here. Since you told that you want understand, that are two books that will provide you that, see below. I'll try to help with anything possible.
Hi,
keep up the good fight. It will not be easy and is great that you are acknowledging that your have a problem. I believe that is the first step for us. I suffer from the same problem, altho' i believe mine is a little worse (thanks god this is not a competition, lol)
If you want to share more, please do.
But one thing that made more easier to fight this, was understand how porn and masturbation affects our body, mind, brain. For me reading "Your brain on porn" and "Wired for Intimacy" was very very good. If you are interested on how to fight this, read those book.
And, again, please, share more if you want and if you need. I will probably be here every single day starting next week. I'm here to help, if possible.
