hi everybody,
i don't know where else to post this, so i just do it here. i apologize for my english - it could be bad sometimes, because i am not a native speaker.

so enough about that - i am here, because i am addicted to porn. this realization came roughly one week ago.

Just to start I've only been in recovery for 4 months and abstinent for the same from all forms of porn, sex, masturbation. During my intensive recovery the notion of healthy sexuality is being introduced as normal and something to work on/toward. The issue is, obviously, that my partner has to be comfortable too. Unfortunately (from my narrow perspective) she is unwilling. Not just unwilling but pretty aggressive about just that. Her counciling may have something to do with it. From my perspective there are two things I see. I have caused great harm during our relationship.

Hey,

First - thanks for this web site. Ordered the book.

My story is similar to so many. About a year ago I lost most of my sex drive and could not get an erection with a partner. Which was a shame because I had many attractive and willing partners. It really made me feel like I was "missing out on life."

Anyway...

I have serious issues and need help. I am constantly fantasizing about my mother-in-law, even though I have a beautiful wife.
I constantly MB over images of her, I've made photoshop images of her, and even posted pics of her on sex forums (I usually delete them a few minutes later) - even resorting to posting her pics on webcam users, and watch them M, pretending I am her. I always feel terrible afterwards. What the hell is wrong with me?

Hi, I am 18 years old and I am looking to break my bad habit of watching porn. I go introduced to it around the age of 13 and have been addicted to it ever since. I am talking about internet porn of course (the only kind I know). I have read all of your articles on psychologytoday.com and they make so much sense(the high and lows, dopamine, the guilt afterward). I want about this past week without masturbating or using porn because I was inspired by those articles. But then yesterday I started to watch a few clips and than today I failed to prevent myself from masturbating while watching.

Greetings. I recently joined up here after reading several of the articles on this site. And I have to say, thank you. It has opened my eyes to a few things.

First some relevant history. I'm happily married for 27.5 years now. But I've also masturbated on average daily since around eleven. My wife and I have sex around one to two times a month on the average, assuming no other problems get in the way of it.
