Porn addiction
Hi all,
so just a quick background I am a 25y/o straight male from the UK, I have been in a relationship for just coming up to a year.
It honestly doesn’t seem to matter where I am or what I am doing, I can be at work and I feel like I could bust one out (never have). However it doesn’t seem to just stop there because it really doesn’t matter what I seem to watch or look at, you name a category and I have probably watched it; trans, gay, straight, ect and ect. Again straight male. This includes only fans, pornhub and X(twitter), where I tend to get lost flicking through hashtags.
Now don’t get me wrong my girlfriend is incredible at everything she does but we don’t actually live together yet, come the new year we are planning on getting a place together. I really don’t want to be sneaking off to the bath room the crank one out before bed or to be lay in bed next to her while I have a browse at what’s going on, on X.
This has probably been going on for a couple of years now and I just feel like it need to stop. It’s not even that I want to do it any more it’s just about of habit.
Any suggestion or help much would be appreciated!
@diplomaticBranch2555 Do inner healing and find another way to cope like video games or Youtube. The high is a relief from the old baggage. If you release the old baggage, you won't need the high.
Hey there,
I understand what you mean, I am 30 years old and I sttrugle with it too, I don t have a girlfriend at all, also have dome hard time with girls, even though most people think that I don t. And I know that I use porn to escape that feeing of wanting closeness with a girl but not trusting a girl enough to get close, but I am trying to deal with it. Discover your baggage as was said, and maybe find some help to do it, from a profissional and little by little you will do it. There is a therapy called IFS that goes really deep, but search and find the one that helps you the most. Big hugs friend
I would be happy to discuss with you guys about these issues, so feel free to send a request my way if you feel like venting or that I can be of help/support
