If you have landed to this article I think that it’s safe to assume that you have come to the realization that you are suffering from some type of sexual addiction or you are looking for help with your pornography addiction.

How to diagnose yourself with pornography addiction

Curiously enough, there is no official diagnose that would declare you a porn addict like there are with drugs or alcohol. The reason for this is that pornography is not yet “officially” called an addiction, but the thousands of men and women who have been smart enough to recognize it know better.

Yes, we do know that there is such thing as porn addiction and, most likely, you have recognized it and are looking for help for this pornography addiction which is disturbing your life a great deal.

A very quick diagnose you can apply to yourself is by asking yourself the following questions:

* Do I have a compulsion to watch pornographic videos?

* Do I have a compulsion to masturbate?

* Am I always looking for other ways to satisfy my pornography addiction?

* Do I have a hard time to concentrate in anything else?

* While I am at work, do I keep thinking about the pornographic material that I will be watching tonight?

If you can answer, yes, to even a single one of these questions, it can be safe to say that you have pornography addiction and that you are right to be looking for help.

Are some individuals pre-disposed to sex and pornography addiction?

Yes, indeed, it can most certainly be said that some individuals more pre-disposed to sexual and pornography addiction than others. Such so called “pre-disposition” can include:

* Genetic make-up – you have a parent who has suffered from porn addiction or even other types of addictions.

* You are coming from a dysfunctional family

* You are suffering from some type of depression and use pornography addiction as a “coping” mechanism

* You have very low self-esteem issues due to previous events in your life

Now, let’s be clear, you could have had all such pre-dispositions in your life and not ever turn into a porn addict, but what I am saying here is that such factors often lead to some type of addiction, including pornography addiction.
