Men are known to have the higher risks of being addicted to porn. This is because men are easily stimulated visually. Porn addiction could start out as simple, harmless fun; something that provides entertainment. In some cases, the fascination with porn begins at a very young age, usually due to hormonal changes and peer pressure. But if this fascination becomes intense, these men will find themselves seeking out porn all the time. The Internet is a plentiful and anonymous source, and porn addicts can spend hours in front of the computer viewing porn sites.

Porn addiction, as with any other addiction, should be considered a psychological problem. For starters, addicts can become confused about what is real and not. They have trouble staying in a healthy relationship since their addiction takes control of their lives. Even their work can be affected. Staying up late, addicts may find themselves unable to get to work on time, or that their lack of sleep will causes them to lose their focus. In addition, they may find themselves unprepared for presentations and meetings, either because of fatigue or because they have not spent sufficient time on the job. They will soon find themselves at risk of losing their jobs. Especially if they start to view porn on the work computers!

If the addict has a family, the porn addiction could also destroy his home life. A marriage could be horribly strained, and the addict might even refuse to make love to his wife as his fantasies do not involve her, or because he has masturbated. His children will be alienated since he would rather lock himself up in the study or basement. This also affects his social life, and is another sign that things are getting out of control. Before this happens to you, you should face reality and stop your porn addiction.

Of course, it is not as easy as it sounds. As with any other addiction, the man will probably experience withdrawal symptoms. Behaviour may include irritability, anger, confusion and depression.

Seeking professional help is advised. A therapist can prescribe antidepressants and other medication to help cope with the withdrawal symptoms. For faster results, hypnotherapy is a viable option to explore, which can help with withdrawal symptoms. Hypnotherapy for pornography addiction usually involves altering one's behaviour by making suggestions to the subconscious. Depending on both the severity of the addiction and the personal commitment to overcoming the problem, some people find they are over the porn addiction within as few as three sessions.
