Hi I am a 14 year old gay teenager, and I think im addicted to porn

Recently ive been watching a lot of porn and I've tried to stop several times, but I can't.

I use my iPod touch to download it via app. I've deleted the app to attention to get rid of the habit, but I always end up downloading it again.

Please help me get rid of this terrible habit?

Mate, we all have seen porn by your age, its natural. If you really can't give it up, then don't download it, watch it just on a computer. But as all the other answers say, do something to distract you. maybe think up a punishment that you have to do if you download it, like wash up, 50 press-ups or vacuum your room. This may stop you from doing it.

person12345 agony auntI would say find things you can do out of the house. When you're alone at home I'd say the temptation will be way too much. Go to the movies, go to a friend's house, anything like that. Distraction is basically the trick to getting past anything. Pick up a hobby, take some classes.

Hi I'm the one who posted the question wasn't sure if it said it or not but I'm just sayin just in case.

I really appreciate the advice I've been given and will try my best to avoid porn and I really think I am able to withstand the temptation so im deleting the app as we speak and I'm getting more games etc as distractions and just in case I'll download it again I'm going to fill up my memory so I won't be able to.

Thanks again hopefully the damage hasn't been done yet and I'll be able to have a loving relationship thank you so much

Dear Mandy agony auntHI

Its natural at your age to be curious and watch these kind of movies, but to this extent as you are aware its not, you have made the first step by admitting this is a problem, now you can start your road to freeing yourself from this. I will warn you that downloading this kind of movies has its very negative sides to it....

1) you will never be able to have a loving relationship that will actually mean anything to you, as your mind will always reffer back to the films,and the reality is people do not make love like this.

2) you could accidently download the wrong kind of porn i.e child porn, this will be traced back to you and you could end up in very serious trouble.

3) this could make you very ill informed about how a loving realtionship between two men should be.

may I suggest you sell your iPod touch so you dont have the urge to download the app again, OR just be strong and dont do it! I know this may not be easy but its your choice at this moment. you can start by going out more with friends, taking up a sport, or a new hobbie, take your mind of things. You are still very young and your hormones will be all over the place, but you need to try and keep them urges in check.
