This would only be considered "addiction" if it is messing up your life to a crippling degree...i.e. losing your job to stay home looking at porn, completely ignoring the "outside world" for porn, ignoring your gf/bf for porn to such a degree you can't keep a relationship...these kind of things. Looking at porn everyday isn't much of a problem...so you have an undirected high sex drive. Perhaps focus on trying to get out more if possible. Although a good wank now and then is good for you ;o)
> Has anyone heard of medication that can be used to help people with this condition. I was reading that 70% of males between 18 and 30 engage in this behavior on a regular basis and that it has a strong influence on the median forebrain and dopamine production. Obviously, if they are addicted they will need a program of recovery but I'm wondering if there is any drug on the market to assist these men through the initial stages of their recovery.
