Sexual, Masturbation and Porn Addiction Help Forum

I have had a porn addiction since I was around 12 or 13 years old. It has gotten progressively worse throughout the years and has robbed me of many blessings in life which I hope to reclaim but I know that I need the help of a counselor or therapist to succeed. Someone who can keep me accountable for my behavior and offer me support in this daily struggle. I have told both of my parents about this addiction when I was younger and they didn’t seem to believe that this was an addiction of any sort and that I should just have stronger will power to stop. I really don't have anyone at this moment that i can confide in who will offer me any sort of support in my effort to quit so I need to find a professional to help me in this most important life endeavor. I have tried to stop many times and have had mild success while always falling back into the same habits and routine. I have tried SA but I feel I need a specialist who can offer me guidance on a more personal level to help me succeed. If there is anyone here who potentially knows of a website that can help me find help of this kind please let me know. God bless everyone here in overcoming your struggles.

I am in your shoes too in some sense. I think the best resource is God to start with. I see your a religious man so I will suggest first try a religious leader. They usually have resources to who you can talk to, besides here. One thing that is the most important is to do what some have said to do in this forum. Read around and get some ideas to start. You can always take steps forward and backwards, but focus on why you want to go forward

Yes, there is in fact a website that specializes in ridding of porn addiction. It's the candeo programme.(www.candeocan.com) It was from this website that i discovered that porn is actually a drug, an addiction that has an effect on the brain. If you need professional help that's the place to be. I'm also considering joining their full recovering programme.
