Thought I should introduce myself. Looks like the thing to do. I've fought a long battle with internet porn addiction. My addiction is really about chat sites, not the porn. Without the chat, I wouldn't look at the porn really. I waste countless hours. Too many to think about. It's sickening. I am doing better than I used to be. I don't feel like I'm dying or destroying my life but I'm preventing myself from succeeding. Every time I go back to a chat site it seems like such a good idea. When I'm done, all I can think of is what a waste of time it was. Just totally pointless. I want the old me back. Haven't been me in 15 years or so.
Welcome! I had trouble with chat sites too. I know exactly what that feeling of wasted hour is like. Let me know what I can do to help.
I also have an obsession with chat sites. Sometimes, I stay up all night chatting. I've collected a few "regulars" who I chat with frequently. I also do this at work, which is more serious and distracting. Have you found much help on this site?
Hmmm do you think it has anything to do with loneliness? There are times when I crave companionship even more than sexual stimulation, an emotional intimacy over a meaningless physical one, but sometimes the desires blend into each other. I haven't been me for so long, I don't even know who actually am right now. With help, if I can kick this habit, I look forward to meeting the new and improved me. All the best with your journey, we're all here to support each other.
I'm not very lonely, but I do have issues connecting with people on an emotional level. I'm married, happily, so it's especially distressing that I crave this extra attention.
Hey, I have troubles with chats and web chats....I caught my self sometimes after hours on web chat that I started to talk with people more than demand from them any sexual things. I just felt lonely or frustrated and wanted to be around somebody who will comfort me, but jerking of with people was easier and brought fast release...feel lonely is big deal Try to stay in close touch with somebody from here
My problem with connecting here is that it's not a mobile-friendly site. I feel like if I had a distraction while I was in my chatting app of choice, that would help. Although I know the real struggle is all in my head, so getting myself together about that is my first real step.
I don't believe it's loneliness for me. It's more of stress relief I think. It takes me away from the world. But at this point, my brain just wants it all the time.
I agree if you are talking about masturbation and orgasm. But for me chatting and webchating is more about loneliness
