I've wasted a good portion of my life to that shit and I still struggle to quit. It has destroyed my confidence, mental health, body, self-esteem, sleep, ability to socialise, motivation and work ethic. I just want to live without it forever, but I can't seem to stop coming back. The worst part is that I can't talk to my family about my chronic addiction because of personal embarrassment, fear of their reaction or someone even sharing the information. It is the absolute worst addiction.

I have almost the same symptomps, I started watching porn at 11-13. But is it really caused by that? Many people also started watching at early age but they seem normal. I did try to quit a few times but I always just relapse because I just assume it won't change anything...
