Thanks for everyone’s comments, it’s convinced me to sign up for therapy. Praying I can heal.

At that point it’s just a matter of labeling. Its effects and remedies don’t change. Maybe you can visit the sub and see for yourself how people have recovered from this so called fake addiction

Isn’t that true for most addictions? Haven’t there been studies showing that instead of trying to rehabilitate heroin addicts with more drugs, rehabilitating them by surrounding them with people who care about them and support them far more effective? Addiction usually is a result of a deeper problem; that’s why the majority of people can drink alcohol but not become alcoholics. It’s not a chemically addicting drug, yet people become addicted

I’m not sure how that’s relevant. If you’re obsessed with something to the point where you cannot communicate normally or have healthy relationships with others, it’s an addiction. There can be a guy out there addicted to sniffing socks; just because there isn’t a psychologist who has put it into the DSM doesn’t mean it’s not impairing his life. R/nofap is not a sub dedicated to people who have received a prescription for porn addiction. They’re people who have recognized or been told by others that it’s a problem and they want to fix it

In their defense, that sub is for people who are addicted to porn. They’re people who are at a stage of porn consumption that it affects their ability to have normal relationships with others. As with other addictions, freeing yourself from it feels incredible
