Is porn addiction in men common now?

Definitely a thing. When I was depressed I couldn't stop jerking off. The porn just got weirder and weirder. It skewed my expectations of women, ruined my confidence, and diminished my sensitivity. I had to consciously fight it and stop to save my sex (and love) life.

It gets better. I still rub one out every now and then. Sometimes the porn is still pretty weird. But I'm able to enjoy vanilla sex and I don't need to go into my bag for the kinks every single time I fuck. Too much porn makes you into a demented animal. You just get desensitized to anything but the craziest, most adrenaline inducing, most novel thing you're thinking of at the time.

I have a lot of friends with similar experiences. We grew up in the golden age of pornhub and xvideos. The human body has a remarkable ability to recover and I noticed myself going back to normal once I cut down on it.
