When you can say you developed a "porn addiction" ?

When you act weird and compulsive

 

you have a porn addiction when you couldn't quit it. Try go without porn and a person with porn addiction will experience extreme cravings to watch porn.

 

Maybe a few months ago, I was in denial. I thought my depression, anxiety and mental health problems were due to other factors. I became suicidal, thinking that nothing would fix me and that my OCD (named HOCD) was an actual sexual interest. I then discovered this group out of the blue and I realised all my mental problems have stemmed from porn addiction and super frequent M'ing. The crucial point with a porn addiction is knowing you couldn't quit. Without it, you "suffer" and the withdrawals are hell.

 

When you find it difficult to pass a day without watching it .when you can't find satisfaction with one or two videos and you thirst for a particular position ,video or category.When you spend as high as 7 hours or more watching porn in a week

 

When you close your eyes and u see nothing but naked women
It is so bad for u it objectifies women who are not sex toys.

 

Might few months after i done first PMO.

 

It’s getting hard I can’t pass 2 days without mastarbating I need help

Have you tried to quit porn unsuccessfully in the past?

Do you experience withdrawal symptoms when going without porn?

Do you continue to use porn despite significant negative consequences in one or more aspects of your life?

Do you engage in risky or excessive masturbation practices?

Have you cancelled significant social or work-related events to use porn?

Has your porn use escalated in frequency or extremity over time?

Have you escalated to genres of porn that once would have not interested you or even disgusted you?

There are a few more, I remember reading a list of these signs off some medical place once, but generally speaking if you answer yes to two or more of those there's a pretty solid chance you have some level of addiction - and if you answer yes to many of them I wouldn't say there's much doubt.

Personally, I answer yes to all of those criteria.
