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.
Hey everyone, I too suffer from this issue and I feel that it's getting out of hand. Nobody knows that I watch porn and masterbate often but I'm starting to do it in places and times I'm not supposed to. If I'm being honest, I do it because I suffer from really low self esteem. I'm 24 and have never had sex or even a girl friend so I resort to porn to get a quick fix. I'm trying to change, be more honest with myself, and ultimately become more honest with God. Every time I do it I feel good in the act but then feel massive shame and guilt afterwards. I think about it all the time and I just need help. I'm afraid to tell anyone so I've never come here but it's something that's hugely tied to my depression and low self esteem. I'm hoping we can all help each other.
Feel free to send me a message if you would like to chat.
I know exactly how you feel, for the longest time I would get my kicks by masterbating in places just to see if I could get away with it. Especially at work when no one was around - bathroom stalls, closets, co-workers offices, parking garage, etc.. It became a personal goal to see how many places I could find to masterbate. Even now I still fight with myself to wait until I get home.
Start by making your bed every day. Next, try going for a walk and in general get more exercise. It is an easy way to boost endorphines and elevate your mood. Try youtube for 20 minute at home workouts.
You got this!
