I struggle with porn addiction and an unnamed paraphilia. I do not want to consume content, fictional or not of said paraphilia because I know it is bad, and that said minority members of my paraphilia are attracted to cannot consent, and that fictional content of my paraphilia will help increase my paraphiliac tendencies.
Any tips and tricks I need to know of? I remember not jerking it when I was very busy with schoolwork, studying, playing games, etc.
Step 1 of curing any addiction is to make it harder to engage in it. Google ways to block porn sites, so that the next time you want to watch porn you have to follow a complicated procedure to unblock it.This makes it harder to impulsively engage in porn watching.
not to discourage you, quite the contrary, but the first step is recognising that stopping is actually quite easy.
maybe try to get a new hobby?
If its pedophilia, there's no cure for pedophilia and you should just accept that that's who you are. Just don't diddle kids which shouldn't be particularly hard.
>>778184horrible advice btw. he should seek a psychiatrist if it is pedophilia and get help
Try just jacking off once in a while and stop stressing out over parts of your brain you have 0 control over. Doing le nofap or other arcane rituals to never masturbate again in your life is going to send you down a spiral of guilt based relapsing lmao. As
>>778184 said, if you're a pedo or a zoophile, just don't do it irl uygha
>>778178Fantasy isn't reality, it's not the end of the world if kids/animals get your pp hard
>>778185Can you actually imagine doing that? How the fuck would that even work? People say this as like a gotcha but I fail to see how a therapist can change what you're attracted to, more likely they just bully you and take your money and make you feel like shit
>>778189pedophilia doesnt pop into your brain out of nowhere, its usually caused by childhood trauma which needs to be addressed
I thinl there are psychologists/psychiatrist that can help u with this
Also, being busy makes you forget about sexualogy
>>778192>its usually caused by childhood trauma which needs to be addressedIf you don't know anything about this topic then just shut the fuck up and stop regurgitating shit you half-remember.
There is zero evidence for that, its just some schizo-theory from Freud.
this has to be bait right? no one is this absolutely fucked in the head from puriteen repression.
OP again.
>>778180I set a feature to block adult websites in Safari.
>>778182Nice idea. Is there any activities that keep you stimulated (invested in it) for a long time?
>>778189>>778194I might feel like talking to a therapist, still not stating that paraphilia though. True, being busy makes you forget about stuff.
Art, music, reading, roleplay not icky stuff with someone, write about something, sketching bullshit, writing your thoughts down (dont use google docs)
try to stay calm and focus on cutting your acess to porn wether saved or not, start hitting not reccomeneded or blocking accounts that make suggestive content.
>>778218Ask them before you commit to a therapist: what is your approach to clients with X paraphilia? If they talk about conversion therapy or really anything aside from developing self-acceptance or, maybe impulse control if you have some ICD, keep looking.
I hate to diagnose you off of one post, but this sounds like ocd. You should seek therapy if it’s getting that dire for you. Good luck anon
>>778178Porn addiction is bad but I think you’re confusing your paraphilia for actual real life desire
Once again, the answers is SSRIs+Finasteride to kill your sex drive and therapy.
Don't listen to the anti-psychiatry halfwits.
>>778406>Don't listen to the anti-psychiatry halfwits.Modern psychiatry does not propose a blanket chemical castration on all paraphiles. You're just lying here.
Chemical castration doesn't "cure" paraphilias nor does therapy. OP has the belief that he's some sort of bomb about to explode just because hes a pedo or something and telling him to get castrated is just feeding into that idea when we have no reason to believe it to be true. Ultimately the root cause of his distress is his untrue understanding of his paraphilia itself, his fear of getting horny is downstream from that. Any therapist trained for this would encourage self-acceptance primarily, and only propose castration if he has some ICD, which we have no reason to believe OP does.
>said minority members of my paraphilia are attracted to cannot consent
elderly people?
