I lost NNN and I regret it (every year I’m lying to myself by saying that I’ll do it this year, but hey, nothing I can do about it; tho the best thing that I can do for now is to survive till the end of the month with an imaginary HP left). Honestly, that’s only the tip of the iceberg when it comes down to the way masturbation addiction (won’t call it porn addiction, since the spectre of things that I was doing while ‘‘doing it’’ is substantially wider than that) has affected me. Won’t get into much detail, but it’s pretty bad. Gotta be honest with myself. Might be wrong, or right, but I feel like an important part of it is the fact that I’m still a virgin. I would love to hear anyone willing to share his thoughts with me. Your effort is much appreciated!

P.S. also, I’m posting this as a timestamp in my journey of battling this cheap butt addiction, literally

P.P.S. feel free to ask any questions

P.P.P.S. thanks for all the support, guys, you’re awesome

    Can virgins be sex addicts? Feels like getting addicted to a drug you never took :D

      If the virgins are masturbating so much that they have to ask others for help in order to stop, then yes, they are a sex addict

        Seems more like masturbation/porn addiction as there is no sex involved, by definition.

          SAA helps with those too. The definition of “sex addict” typically refers to any abuse of sexual activities, not strictly sexual intercourse
