One of the hardest things to do is realize that you may be a porn addict. Unlike alcoholism or drug abuse, porn doesn’t come with blatant physical consequences, and isn’t usually dangerous for other people. For many people, therefore, porn addiction feels like something physiologists have made up.

The problem is, it isn’t made up, and does have some serious consequences both mentally and socially. So how do you know if you are an addict? Porn addiction is diagnosed very similar to other addictions, in that doctors looks for a reliance and/or dependence on pornography, which manifests to the detriment of other aspects of daily life.

If porn is constantly on your mind, so much so that it is interfering with your life and work, you could be a porn addict. In a lot of cases, porn addiction detracts from social experiences, which could lead to friends and family noticing that something is going wrong.

Finally, the last symptom is a failure to perform in real, personal, sexual experiences. If you’re having problems performing in the bedroom without the stimulation of porn, porn addiction could be the problem and you should seek help. The question is, how?

Where to Go for Help for Sex or Porn Addiction

If you think you may have porn addiction, there are several places you can go for help. The most obvious one is your doctor, who can point you towards real world psychological help. The problem with this course of action is that porn addiction, like any addiction, is hard to admit to. Porn addiction has the added social stigma that goes along with the idea of porn.

Another problem with the real world is that this psychological treatment is expensive. A lot of times seeing a doctor for this condition can cost upwards of $800 a month. For a lot of people, that’s just too much.

So, if you don’t want to go out into the real world, the anonymity of the Internet may be the best place for you to turn. There are exclusive and confidential services online that can help you cope with porn addiction. One of these services is run by one of the world’s best therapists, it’s called Neulia. Unlike traditional therapy, it’s done completely online with complete confidentiality, and is significantly cheaper to the tune of 90% less than traditional treatments.

Getting treatment online is the best solution for a lot of people because it provides that at-a-distance anonymity that the real world denies, and it does so in a less expensive manner.

Conclusion

The first step is to admit you have a problem. Recognizing the symptoms, and then finding the best and least expensive way to get help. That solution may just be an online course like our video course.
