I really hope you seek out the help you need. I believe sex/porn addiction is real; just like drugs, booze,food, etc...you are using an outside stimuli to 'get out of yourself'. These things are not bad per se...but when they interfere with your daily living...one starts sliding down the slippery slope of addiction/OCD behavior (like Bryan pointed out). Any cycle of addiction can not be done alone...you need a second set of eyes and ears for a 'reality check'...so I hope you use some of the helpful links to find a professional and take on the underlying condition.

Godspeed to you man.

I have been in treatment for three years for sexual addiction. I see a psychiatrist every three months and a mental health counselor every three to four weeks. It can be a tough road, but one that has help along the way.

A great book I read was "Out of the Shadows" by Patrick Carnes. His explanation of the "routine" you get into and how to break free from it is very powerful. What patterns do you have that leads you to the computer, porn and then masturbation / sex. You have to break that routine. Good luck. If you are employed there is a good chance some behavioral counseling is offered in your insurance plan. Don't be afraid to ask for help. My counselor said there is nothing he hasn't heard before, and I think he's right.

it looks like you can get hot girls with your big cock when ever you want, so just put it away for a bit and take up a hobby to keep your mind off things

As a fellow sex addict the Steak Man understands your dilema. To chime in with others get some help asap bro. That's a tuff problem to curb. Be sure it's a therapist u won't find remotely attractive, seriously.

Actually being on any sex related site doesn't help your situation. Abstinence of sex sites is like abstinence of alcohol, drugs, shopping, gambling, video games etc. Until your therapist gives the okay for you to be on these sites you may have to stop going to online sex, dating, etc sites. Dialectic behavioral therapy, DBT may be helpful. So even if you find that LPSG is a good support site, it can also can be your downfall as you will get responders who will enable and justify any urges to view photos, read stories, and watch
videos. Good luck

Here are a few ideas.

Accept that you are not going to change your behavor overnight

Watch for danger patterns and try to avoid them. Is there a time of the day when you are more vulnerable for example.

Last thing at night before you go to bed, think about what you are going to do the next day. Set yourself modest, achievable goals.

Try at first to ration your time in front of the computer. See if you can get through the morning without falling into the sexual patterns, or even an extra hour. That would be a start!

Try to set aside times where you allow yourself porn and try to be strict with yourself about keeping to them.

Reward your successes; don't be too hard on your failures. (Remember that sex is a strong compulsion with everyone. It is a biological need after all).

If there is someone you can trust with this, talk to them. Think about seeking help if you think you need it. Discussing these things can be therapeutic.

Hope this helps.

Guys,

i need your sincere help. i'm addicted. i'm a sex addict. i'm addicted to porn. it's killing me. i sit in front of the computer all day masturbating, then chasing girls online on dating sites. it's a struggle to get motivated, to get work done, to live life.

i feel like i'm letting my life pass me by. i spend and waste countless hours in front of the computer, chasing the rush of porn and immediate sexual gratification, ie dating sites, etc.

it's effecting personal relationships, business and worst of all my own self fulfillment of life.

can anyone offer help? suggestions? relate?

i'm very serious about this. please help.

thank you.
