How do you know if you are addicted to internet porn?
does anybody know how to stop? should you stop? is life better without internet porn?
1. Is internet porn is adversely affecting your relationship, quality time spent with your spouse or family.
2. Is internet porn adversely affecting your job.
3. Has internet porn replaced healthy exercise, hobbies, volunteer activities and helping those less fortunate in life.
4. Has your need for internet porn changed your views on morality so sex acts previously considered vulgar \ taboo are now raging desires.
5. As your appetite for porn has grown does it take more graphic no holds bared depictions of sexual activities to produce the same state of arousal that tamer fare once provoked.
6. Has your straight heterosexual nature been changed to a bi-curious state by exposure to porn.
7. Do you need to see images of people engaging in degrading painful or other abnormal sexual behavior to achieve arousal.
8. Has watching porn caused you to seek fulfillment of alternative sexual pleasures outside of your marriage or other committed relationship.
9. Have you had anonymous sex for no other reason than the fact that you needed to seek sexual release after watching porn.
10. Has watching porn introduced you to poppers, dildos, bem wah balls, leather, harnesses or any other type of sexual pleasure enhancing drugs or devices.
If you answer yes to more than three of these questions I would suspect you have a porn addiction. If internet porn is a form of sexual release that does not mutate and grow taking over more and more of your life then its not an addiction. The ket facet of addictions are that they grow. An addiction can grow slowly or quickly but the common theme of addiction is that it creates a need loop in an individual that requires an ever greater amount of a certain type of stimulation to be only temporarily fulfilled.
A love of porn that does not motivate a person to seek every greater intensity of depicted imagary, does not cause a person to seek every greater physical stimulation and finally does not intice a person to sneak out to new drugs, prostitutes, paramours and sex enhancing devices to find pleasure is not likely porn addiction.
Simply stated if porn is destroying your life because it is a growing part of your life then it is an addiction. All growing addictions fool the addict into thinking they can successfully manage the growth. Only when it is often too late does the porn addict realize they are not managing the porn addiction. In time porn addiction changes people so much that in time all life becomes mere flesh to be experienced, altered and exploited like a drug. This is rock bottom for porn addicts when life love and respect is gone and all humanity becomes just MEAT to be sampled and discarded like an old newspaper.
