Porn Addiction

 

Engaging in porn isn't inherently bad or bad for your relationship, but like any other substance it can become a pervasive or dominating part of your life. High consumption of pornography can be related to issues of intimacy, such as lowered sexual satisfaction with a partner, difficulty finding other methods of coping with distress, or progressive need for more extreme porn to become sexually satisfied. It can feel like porn has taken over your life, and you need to engage in pornographic materials more often, in less appropriate situations, or even when you don't want to.
