Hi all, 46 year old man. Been looking at porn as long as I can remember. I remember finding my dads playboys, looking at my uncles playboys with my cousins, and checking out National Geographic. Yeah, this was back in the 80s before online, easy access of porn was a thing.
I've always figured I had porn usage well under control. Never really impacted my real life. Got married in my 20s, had kids. No one really knew how much I checked out porn and masturbated. My wife knew I did watch a little, I have always had a higher sex drive then her, but it didn't impact our sex life so she really didn't mind. It became more and more of a habit, checking out porn when I was bored, looking at it even if I wasn't m, just trying to find the next best thing.
Well, it did impact my life now. And I'm looking to make some changes for the better. My therapist said I should take a look for an online support group, so here I am, checking it out.
