Sometimes I worry about the amount of time I can spend online looking at porn, messaging people and generally being a horny devil.

I often spend up to 2hrs a day online, mostly checking out porn.

Do others ever feel their sexual activity online is a bit addictive?

There's NOTHING like the real thing hungjosh. Go outside and play sometime. That may be the cure to your internet porn addiction.

I think I used to but I suppose I just keep myself busy with work or housework..then I am not so much into watching porn anymore. BUT if you like it, there's nothing wrong with it I suppose! :)

It de-sensitizes you after a while, especially if you look at it excessively. That's the sole reason I try to stay away from it. Obviously I've wacked off to some in the past, I think everyone has, but what worried me was that I'd be seeing really attractive women out in the real world and not being particularly aroused or anything. There came a point where it hit me that I was getting way too much visual stimulation from something essentially not real. I swore it off for a period of three months and started getting hard-ons in public again. That for me was a sign that everything was in perfect working order and that I just needed to lay off the porn.

How did you manage that? Was it not torture?

Oh yeah, it was really hard, but what happens is that you start fantasizing in your mind instead. Nowadays when I masturbate, 99% of the time it's without any added stimulation. I reckon it's best if you can use your imagination like that, because that way you can create the nicest scenes in your own head.

I'm an addict as well and have been since college. I used to jerk off to internet porn EVERY single moment I could. As a result, I missed classes, went to work late, put my friends off sometimes. Now, I still masturbate online a lot (including cam to cam), but I don't give up time with friends or ignore a beautiful day outside. Relative to the real thing, I've always agreed that nothing compares to being with another dude.

Man I can relate to yah, I definately feel that all my free-time gets sucked up and into internet porn or talking to others, jerking etc.

Sixofspades, do you have any recomendations on weaning oneself away from it?

Thanks buds

Yes, I have to admit that I am addicted to internet porn. Addicted to LPSG too. LMAO !!!

I only spend about 10-20 minutes a night watching porn although I have started doing it in the day...at work (lol).

I usually cum 2 or three times at night and once in the day.

I read somewhere, like GQ or something, that a poll found that 35% of American men look at internet porn and most of them while they should be doing something else (like work.)

I am definitely in that percentage and it's rediculous.

I knowfor a fact that I suffer from an addiction to porn, but since I've become an adult, I've done nothing to stop myself from indulging.

It hasn't become a major problem, but since I've heard stories of ruined lives...I'm pretty sure it's something that I and others should get a handle on.

Like many here I have an addictive personality. I've never had a drug or alcohol problem, I'll save my problem sweet tooth for another day. :tongue:

I used to have an internet porn addiction until I discovered LPSG. :biggrin1: I once stayed up so late cruising porn sites when I finally did go to sleep I slept through my alarm and ended up calling out sick to work. :frown1: I could have gone in for a half-day but at that point it seemed pointless. So I ordered in a pizza, poured myself a glass of white zinfandel; and watched some more porn! :biggrin1::cool::tongue:

I have never missed work due to LPSG; however, I have been known to spend up to 10 hours a day here.:redface: I have cut back significantly in recent months. I probably spend about 2-4 hours a day here and some days I don't log in here at all. For me that is progress. :smile:

I've been there. If your time online is interfering with or replacing sex with other people, then it might be too much. If that's the case, then quit cold turkey and only nut when you're hooking up with someone. After a while, try jacking off to the thoughts and memories of past experience or fantasize about someone in real life. Only go to porn as a "treat" once in a while. It sounds lame, but for a while there I couldn't keep my dick hard when I was fucking and it was because my brain was so used to seeing real hardcore images and getting off. That's bad news! Now I'm able to enjoy the occasional porn jerkoff and a happy sex life at the same time. Anyway, hope this helps. ;)
