    I’ve been watching porn since i was a preteen and over the past few years it’s been constant. at least once a day, sometimes three times or more, it comes in the way of all my activities, takes up all my time, i’ve been late to work or school, it’s gone from a coping mechanism to an addiction. over time, though, it’s taken more and more to interest me. vanilla used to be just fine, and gradually it got stranger. the first of the weird “kinks” i developed was a p*ss kink. i was and am disgusted and ashamed of it and i hated myself. but it got so much worse. i somehow found a video of beastiality on the internet and was obviously repulsed at first, but later i went back to it and it turned into a fetish that i am also ashamed of. i’d rather die than anyone find out. finally my last straw was when i became obsessed with daddy/daughter. the taboo concept is exciting to me and the worst part is that my favorite place to go was the comment section. there, people would talk about sexual relationships they had with their daughters or fathers. i want to believe that none of them were being serious, but the thought that they were made me so horny in the moment.

    all of these i take a step back from after the fact and want to vomit. i can’t believe that i’m turned on by things this horrible and disgusting. that’s why i need to stop before it gets worse.

    i have a partner, and i’ve never once came while we’ve had sex. i’ve faked it every single time and they have no clue, but it is so upsetting to me that i can’t do something as simple as orgasm with my own partner. i need porn that much to get me off. i’ve even gone into adult chat rooms to role play with strangers of my fantasies. my partner doesn’t know and would be heartbroken if they found out, and they also don’t know about my weird fetishes or porn addiction. this last time having sex i finally orgasmed, but it was only after like 20 minutes and me envisioning play for play porn videos of my disgusting fetishes. i just want to have a healthy and PRESENT sexual life with the person i love.

    please tell me that the only reason i’m attracted to the things i am is because of addition escalation and that it isn’t permanent. i’m one week off masturbating and trying to move on but it’s so so hard. i don’t want to be the person i am. i want my life back.

    Yes, it’s the porn. Think about what you said... it started off as vanilla then escalated. It will continue to escalate into even worse fetishes and behaviors if you cannot get into real recovery. Try sa/saa groups they are free. Find an accountability partner, maybe on here but a friend in real life would be even better. Educate yourself on what you have done to your brain. It will be very hard to beat but it can be done.

    Absolutely you can rewire, and with enough time, find sexual and emotional fulfilment in the moment with your partner!

    Lots of studies out on this now. When someone experiences a new thing while aroused the brain has the capability to associate pleasure with that thing. Even if it has nothing to do with sex.

    The solution is to stay away from the fantasy stuff online, take a good break, and then reconnect to real-world intimacy and emotions.

    Given you have a partner, it would be ideal to go cold turkey with online material, and slowly start being more intimate with your partner. You may even suggest not having sex for a month or so, in order to have a recovery period before rewiring your brain to real life stuff.

    Escalation is common among porn users. Don't worry about it. Porn addiction is more about dopamine addiction. Porn is the button we push the dopamine high. Understand this porn is not just porn. Porn is actually any artificial sexual stimulation we get a dopamine high. Porn is tube sites, porn is chatrooms, porn is oogling, porn is fantasizing, porn is looking throughout social media to seek some girls to get a dopamine high, briefly, porn is anything to get a neurological chemical event. With all of this sensitization and desensitization, your reward system became numb, and with this numbed pleasure response you want more porn or extreme genres to get same 'high'. You are not perverted, just dopamine abusing for years, changed your brain. But, there is always hope, because of the neuroplasticity. Human brain is always changeable. My suggestion is avoid all of artificial sexual stimulation because while you are using, you can't quit porn AKA artificially produced dopamine high. If you haven't already cheched out visit yourbrainonporn.com. This place has all you need about pornography addiction.
