Online Porn Can't Wait Until Tomorrow

The internet made porn more accessible -- unfortunately, a little too accessible. Sometimes to the point where your everyday activities are diminished because of porn. 

It's hard to set aside time to a hobby that can consume one's energy. If not careful, one can lose a whole day.

What's worse is online porn, if not controlled, can affect relationships with spouses, significant others, friends, and family. 

Whereas online porn can provide new ideas to try in the bedroom, a little too much porn can become emotionally numbing in real sexual intercourse.

I type this acknowledging that I do enjoy porn. I've been enjoying it since I was a teenager. At times, I did find myself consumed by internet porn to the point where I had to disconnect cold turkey to reset. 

If you find yourself in this circumstance, it is okay to say "I have a problem." Disconnect. Reset. If you need to, get professional help. It's okay.
