I think that I have a sex addiction problem that started at around 11 years old because of pornography from the Internet and other media sources. I have grown uncomfortable with masturbating a couple of times a day. My arousal has become non discriminate I masturbate to straight, gay, transsexual, and animal porn, but I have a spouse and have no questions about my sexual preference. I have also irritated my spouse at times by my frequent masturbation. I have tried to stop but I cant instead I try to sneak and masturbate while she's gone. I am 20 years old and I am tired, disturbed, and confused about this behavior and I don't want to carry this addiction into my 30s.
You are not alone. The Internet has expedited addicts crashing and experimenting to a wider range of images to stimulate themselves. Your addiction to object relationships (porn/fantasy) is going to hurt your marriage. Get into a twelve-step group. You might want the CD The 6 Types of Sex Addicts to see why you are addicted. Start right away. You are young enough now that if you heal you won't have huge regrets like the many that wait to get help. I started my recovery in my early 20's and I am so grateful I did. You might also consider seeing a therapist but definitely start by getting into a sex recovery group.
