When most people say they are addicted to pornography they are most likely speaking specifically of internet pornography.

It takes little effort for an internet porn addiction to escalate and before you know it, you are looking at things you thought you would never look at. The shock and shame cause you to feel hopeless and out of control. Porn is destructive in all forms, to include movies, magazines, and billboards. Internet porn is equally destructive at a faster rate and professional treatment or rehab may be necessary depending on the level of addiction.
No matter how harmless you may think the level of porn is that you may be viewing, it always leads to something worse. There is only one direction to go when you choose to look at porn and that is in a downward spiral.

There are many who argue whether masturbation addiction is even real. Just ask the millions of people who struggle with it and they will tell you they don’t know how to stop. Masturbation has many physical and mental health consequences. When you have a problem with masturbation you are not using the body in the manner in which it was designed to be used. You strain your hormonal systems and become isolated emotionally. Your body was certainly meant to be used in more healthy ways.
Used correctly, your body’s sexual organs are meant to bring you and your spouse closer together in a bond of love and also to reproduce. When you are addicted to masturbation there is no bond with anyone but your own fantasies. Masturbation makes you become selfish and anti-social as all your energy is spent on you. Your feelings of guilt and shame make you feel unconfident in the presence of others and hinder your ability to create new relationships. Some may say, in their pride, they have no problems with this but the truth is a person cannot be a truly loving person by committing such selfish acts. True love involves others and involves self-mastery. If you are struggling with this then browse through the articles I’ve written to understand how to reclaim self-control.
