Sexual addiction, also sometimes called sexual compulsion, is a form of psychological addiction to sexual intercourse and other sexual behavior.

As the title states, I need help to overcome my addiction to porn and masturbation. I have been struggling with this since I was 13 and now I am 31. I know that I need to stop this to be a better person and husband. I understand the reasons but the urges are overhelming. Would like someone to talk too and have the support to overcome this.

Hi, I just joined as well. I’m 24, and have been in a loving relationship for almost three years. My porn usage has been a big issue though, as my partner views it as infidelity, and it causes her to feel very hurt and insecure. I totally understand where she’s coming from and I want to choose her over porn, but it’s a struggle to completely stop watching it, and I’m not sure where to turn.

My wife does not know of my usage of porn but I know if she would she would be devastated by it. That is something I do not want to cause in her. I want to be better for her. When did you start viewing porn?

Hi, I am new here, too. This is my first post. I am 56 and could not even face that I was addicted to porn until my wife caught me and wants to leave me after >20 years of marriage. I am sorry to hear about your struggles. My wife definitely sees this as cheating as well. I am here for support and to help others with similar problems. I am hoping to use this as a place to come when I am anxious and/ or have impulses to turn to porn.

I’m using this place as a place to come and get grounded. I’m 46 and been trying not to watch porn since I was in 5 th grade. My wife sees this as cheating and I can completely see where she is coming from. I’ve been in therapy for 5 years. First 3.5 years were clean from porn and masturbation. I relapsed a couple years ago. My wife has one foot out the door. Your not alone. I can’t do this alone because when I’m alone my mind goes haywire and I’ll lie to myself and others. I joined an SAA group which has helped.

Good morning all, I am new to the group as well. I have been trying to reach out for a support group as well and didn’t think that this group was for my until this post. I have been with my new husband for 14 years and secretly sexting and porn has created many issues in our marriage. Maybe a small group of us can chat and swat thoughts would be great.

Hello to all who have relied to my post. I appreciate the fact that you have read my story and can relate to it. It makes me feel like I am not alone with this addiction. I think ejwp5911 is right, we should create a small group of us to be able to talk about our experiences.

Hi everyone, this is my first time here and I am fighting an online porn addiction. I have no idea how to stop it aside from quitting cold Turkey, which has never worked in the past. I can't afford to pay for therapy and I'm too ashamed to talk to my wife or anyone face to face about my addiction. I'm hoping this can help me even a little bit. I am a 39 year old male who has been looking/watching porn ever since I was 12.
