SEXUAL COMPULSIVITY DOESN’T NEED A PARTNER TO CAUSE HARM
Pornography addiction is described as a compulsive, repeated use of pornography that leads to negative consequences in one’s relationships and personal well-being.
In today’s world, a person can download all the pornography they want, in their own homes, for free, through the Internet. Pornography addiction does not always have obvious consequences. An addict can spend hours engaged in viewing various forms of pornography. Eventually, the time spent can start to take its toll.
Addiction takes root when a curiosity about porn turns into a physical dependence on this type of sexual arousal. In pornography addiction, the “substance” being abused is explicit sexual material and to satisfy the addiction, the addict depends on pornographic outlets like the Internet and DVDs.
Addiction to drugs functions like being addicted to porn in the sense that there’s now a psychological craving for pornographic materials.
