Is porn addiction bad?

So uh, tell me about this porn addiction thing? So I'm about 25, and since I was like 12, I have jerk offd every single day (without missing a single day). I usually jerk off about 2-4 times a day. I also have countless tabs of porn bookmarked, and 9k tabs of porn open on my phone. I think I don't need to mention the fact that I am a virgin.

So my main question here is if I have a problem, and what actual risks am I facing from this behavior? Am I good to go on like this, or do I need to change my ways? And why?

    if you're happy in your life treat yourself
    if you're not satisfied with your situation that's the first waste of time that should be minimized

      Just because I jack off, doesn't mean I don't keep myself clean.

      I mean, I am an unhappy person, but jacking off is not a big problem for me. I just want to know if there are any health risks involved. I saw famous people speak out about that addiction, and I wondered if it's something I need to consider.

      Get rid of the 9k tabs of porn weirdo, that shit will eat up your battery life

      I thought that the tabs stay asleep when I don't click on them.

        if you cum 2-4 times a day you can't take a shower afterwards every single time. Cum has a very strong and specific smell. You just lost your ability to smell it. Everyone around you can smell you...

          No they can't

          Do you cum all over yourself when you jack off or what? Cause I don't really get cum on myself

          I've been jacking off in the computer chair for so long that I don't know if I CAN jack off anywhere else. People jack off in bed? WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?

            Hey, if the b***h don't wanna frick in the chair, then the b***h don't get no dick, what can I say

            For real though, why would my dick only get hard there? You think jacking off to porn makes my dick not get hard? Jacking off to porn makes my dick get hard..

            hehe

            What I mean is, your body and brain remembers when you are "having sex" i.e. choking the chicken.. if you try something else like a bed you will not get hard and/or cum because you are not in that chair position.

            Yeah I know what you meant, but that's not really true. I mean, I frick just fine, at least. It is kind of awkward trying to jack off somewhere other than my bed, but I can still do it if I really want to

            Note this is like 18 years of jacking off in the computer chair

      Yes

      Doesn't work that way.

      You're wrong.

    I can tell a few things about you:

    1. You were raised by a single mom
    2. You never worked more than a menial job in your life
    3. You still live with your mom
    4. You're unemployed as of right now

    So yes, it's a huge problem. A really big fricking problem that's interfering with your life.

      >1. You were raised by a single mom
      I was raised by my mom and dad.
      >2. You never worked more than a menial job in your life
      I have worked 1 month in my life.
      >3. You still live with your mom
      Yes, I still live with my parents. In this economy, it's downright moronic to move out if you don't have to.
      >4. You're unemployed as of right now
      I make money, so I don't see a reason to get a job.
      So you got half of that right, what does that have to do with me watching porn. Terry Crews opened up about his serious porn addiction, and he wasn't a neet.

        You know "porn addiction" isn't even a real thing, right? It's just something lazy guys say to their goofy girlfriends to get them to leave them alone..

    Whether porn/drugs/alcohol/video games or anything, it's only as bad as the harms it's causing you such as preventing you from doing what you want to do and what you need to do.
    Is it preventing you from working? Is it preventing you from going to class? Is it affecting you social life? Is it preventing you from meeting women/wanting to meet women? Is it hurting your health medically?

    If the answer is no or extremely little to all of these then it's not really an issue

      It's not exactly hurting me, but my sister told me that there are some health benefits to stopping jacking off. Which I think is weird. There are couples who frick at least once a day. Is it healthy for them to stop too?

        It can't work one way and not the other, so the answer would have to be "yes," assuming your sister is actually right about the health benefits..

        Which she fricking isn't, of course

      i mostly agree with , but i'd refine my response a bit.
      there are absolutely people for whom porn has a ruinous effect on (myself included). for me, i have a TON of problems that go away or are VASTLY lessened by quitting porn:
      >severe social anxiety
      >lethargy
      >"brain fog" (basically your thinking is hazy and imprecise)
      >anhedonia (nothing is fun or brings you pleasure, picture the coombrain switching between video games every 20 minutes desperate for some pleasure)
      that said, there DEFINITELY exist people for whom porn use seems to have no ill effect at all, people who are baffled by nofap (c.f. alcohol). Most people are probably somewhere in the middle.
      i think EVERYONE who has used porn their entire life without any break has no excuse not to try it.
      quit porn for 2-3 weeks or so. you absolutely owe it to yourself to try.

    29 here, was addicted for 15 years to hard-core degenerate porn. Yes its bad, yes you need to stop.

    You're risking everything, to put it simply. It will take a while to recover, but take action now. By action I mean quitting cold turkey. For addicts like us its the only way. Whenever you feel triggered to look at porn immediately change what you're doing in that moment.

      I can't actually quit. I mean it's one of the few things that brings me joy. I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't do drugs, so busting a nut is basically the only pleasurable thing I can do.
