I'm writing this introduction because I just want to be honest with myself and the rest of the online world. I masturbate as means to allow myself to feel better, and as a solution to forget about all of my other problems. However, through the process of relying on this one activity as a source of happiness, I have developed an addiction. And every time I either watch pornography or masturbate, my addiction grows, yet I am more disconnected from the world and feel worse about myself. My goal is to put a halt to my addiction to online pornography and to not masturbate in the hopes that I will feel better about myself.
