Anyone here have an addiction?

I sure do. I'm addicted to porn. It's a real thing. I've spent close to 5000 on it this year, and sometimes stay up all night watching it. The only real toll it takes on me is in the bank account and on my regular sleep patterns. Been trying to quit since the day I started at 14. Felt guilty and shameful. Never quit 20 years later and have just given up feeling bad about it. It just is something I do. Only real vice I've got.

What about you?

    Bank account? Why the fuck are you paying for porn, man? You're doing it wrong.

    Can you give me an accounting for the $5,000? I'm sure Rodey can lower that number to zero.

    I pay for custom made stuff. It's expensive. Mostly erotic audios and hypnosis.

    But in all seriousness, I have slight addictions to twitter, this site, binge drinking (I can go days without drinking but if I know I'm going to drink to get a good buzz it's hard for me to stop at like 5 or 6 and I'll usually end up at 10+)

    Hypnosis? The fuck?

    Reddit probably has some erotic audio. Hit cpxc. up if you need some good JOI.

    Yep. It's incredibly addicting. Listened to all of reddit erotic audio ten times over. I'm onto the expensive shit.

    This is basically me when drinking as well. Don't really drink at all during the week, or even some weekends, but when I drink I get after it.

    That's what they're told, or tell themselves to deal with the shame. Do they actually? Most likely not. I'm not even convinced it's a real thing.

    Also I honestly don't think I have an addiction, just more like dumb vices.

    Honestly, I'm probably addicted to my phone more than anything.

    Ya, I agree with you. Those are more out just convenience. I used to have that problem with drinking. Never craved it, but would go out and say I'm having 2-3 and end up a baker's dozen into the evening and home at 4. Getting a bit older has helped with that as I literally cannot handle being hungover anymore.

    I'm going into this weekend full on knowing I'll be getting super drunk Friday and Saturday night with friends. Don't really drink at all during the week though, maybe a beer or two mid week with my dad.

    I probably spend too much time on here and reddit, not necessarily posting but maybe just browsing/reading. But if I'm out and about I'm not looking at either. Calling it an addiction would be a slap in the face to people who really struggle with addictions.

    I think my ants addiction is pretty in check. I don't really check all that much on Friday, Saturday and Sunday unless I'm super bored.

    Ya. Unless you turn down other events in your life to spend time on here and stay up all night looking at it, I think it's just a habit or minor addiction. Kind of like eating too many potato chips. You know you should eat a bit less, but damn they're good.

    Does it impact your relationships? I have never heard of the types you pay for.

    Not really. I've been open about it to some extent with my S/O. She doesn't know how much I spend on it, or how much time. But definitely knows I do it. I'm not in massive debt or anything.

    Clips4sale. Niteflirt. You find content from an independent producer, usually just a performer on her own and you can order custom material or buy their material they put out for everyone. Sometimes the more I spend, the more I get high so to speak. It's really weird. The rush of blowing some money on it.

    I feel like it's more ethical. And not just watching videos of people getting it on. It's more cerebral, but really blisses me out. I feel like there's less chance of someone in it doing it against their will. If anything, they are taking advantage of me. But I like it, so they know what they're doing.

    Re: Anyone here have an addiction?

    I like the idea of losing control to someone. But I don't ever want to pay for a femdom or something in person. This is a safe way to kind of explore some fantasies, and still get an intimate experience without ever really knowing the other person in the flesh or them knowing me.
