Sex / Pornography Addiction Support Group
Sexual addiction, also sometimes called sexual compulsion, is a form of psychological addiction to sexual intercourse and other sexual behavior.
My boyfriend has gone cold turkey quitting porn after many years of daily consumption.
what he watches I would say is high end porn not the norm is a healthy loving relationship
he hasn't been honest and maybe embarrassed to tell me the real reasons for why he watches it.
I am concerned as he watches 18-21 teenage girls the same age as my kids so it makes me feel extremely uncomfortable
The affection in our relationship has now diminished. He told me he decided to turn off a switch in his head and he won't watch it or think about porn but now it's affecting our intimacy and it feels like we are just mates hanging out. I can't bring this subject up because it's just another issue about the same stuff.
he stopped drugs also 10months ago which I've fully supported him though.
its all so tuff. I feel inadequate and not good enough I don't know what to do or say anymore
He now needs you motivation and if someone can stop drugs, porn is a much easier issue, give it time, you seem like a kind and lovely woman, porn most of the time stems from stress and he is probably still adjusting with being clean from drugs, porn is his fall back addiction, just wait it out and motivate him and I am sure he will be more intimate than ever
