Porn addiction.

[sparco]

Right, I have a bit of a problem with watching internet porn

I usualy only watch it at night, but I end up staying up until realy late, usualy 2-3 am. The when I have to get up at 7am i feel realy tired and it affects the whole next day.

Its affecting my studies because im often to tired or distant to concentrace. This is a very important year for me because I need good grades to get into the top universitys in september.

Last year I got straight A's in my AS levels, I need to achieve 2 A's and a high B to get into my prefered university (Kings college in London). Because im staying up late im not working hard at my studies, no work is done at home either.

I fear its affecting my health also. Lack of sleep, sitting at a computer for hours and midnight snacking.

I dont even like watching it, i feel like crap when I do it, but something inside me has to do it.

Any advice on how to get outthe habit?

I would recommend getting rid of the computer, but in this day and age not having a computer can be very difficult. Since you're in high school I assume you're living at home with your parents. Try putting the computer in a public place, maybe the living room or office? Also whenever you get the urge to look at porn, go in your room and masturbate. I don't know how computer savvy you are but you could remove the video player on your computer. Also make sure to delete all of your porn, and uninstall all of the programs you use to download it. Then set up a filter for your internet and type in the password blindfolded or get a friend to do it. Getting a girlfriend can't hurt either. Hopefully this helps.

Hi Sparco I work in a local mental health office. If the porn is affecting your daily rountine then you might have a problem. It is 2 or 3 in the morning before you know it? Do you think about the porn during the day? Get rid of the computer or get some professional help. Sex addiction is not uncommon.
