You must seek some help with this, either through a counselor, or with the help of God and Jesus...this is satan's way of destroying a life...if you think you have a problem, and kudo's for admitting it, you probably do. It can be a destructive form, ruin relationships for you, cause you to cheat, and be so consumed, that you can't get anything else done. Please get some help, and use some good old fashioned self control to rid yourself of a really horrible, degrading habit. I am sorry, some will think I am a prude, but using people and denegrading them into exposing themselves in a degrading light to make money, is horrible to me..don't be a part of that, please

Almost all the men and boys like watching porn. So do I.
There is nothing wrong in it.In fact, it is a part of sexual development.I believe that those males who do not watch porn are abnormal.
But everything is bad in excess. Of course you can cure yourself.
Self-control is the best way. Watching porn is a private thing to do. Next time, try watching porn only once a day and if you feel watching it again, start singing loud CLEAN cheerful songs or go into a room where others are present to finish that private mischievous feeling.

How to avoid porn addiction on the Internet
1. Consider installing porn content filtering software( Strongly Recommend NetDog ,you can get it from www.netdogsoft.com ) on your computer. it will help to protect you from stumbling into pornography by accident, That's important.
2. Do not try to guess what the address of a Web page is. Many pornographic sites have similar addresses of respectable sites. For example www . whitehouse . com is a porn site. The real address is www. whitehouse . gov
3. Never click on Web site addresses that you receive in an unsolicited email.
4. Do not open attachments that come in email that are unsolicited.
5. Use filtered search engines or reputable directories to find the information you need.
6. Do not search for terms like girls. Think before you enter a search term.
Stick with reputable sites.
If something looks questionable, don't let curiosity get the best of you. Delete it or close the window.

Yes it is possible to be addicted to porn, addiction can take many forms. I would suggest talking with a counselor or psychiatrist. These people are trained to recognize these issues and may provide not only information on conquering it but also give you some sense of acceptance. You are not alone. I lost a marriage because of this type of addiction and it can ruin your life, if you let it.

Yes. It is possible you have a condition called hypoglycemia, and that it is the hypoglycemia that caused you to get hooked in the first place. Whatever you are doing probably causes increases in your adrenaline (which puts sugar into the bloodstream). So before you can stop the porn, you will have to confirm you have, and then treat, the hypoglycemia.
Hypoglycemia does not have a pill or medication yet. Eating a diet that stresses protein (poultry and fish (salmon) are best, unless you are a vegetarian and then soy is very good), low glycemic carbohydrates (look up a glycemic index) and good fat (olive oil for cooking, almonds or peanuts for snacking), is a good idea before, during and after detox.

ANYONE that feels they are addicted to ANYTHING can cure themselves.....just as a smoker is addicted to the nicotine in cigarettes. You need the willpower to stop. I truly believe you can cure yourself. Next time you feel like watching it, avert your attention to something else. Try finding something that makes you happy....and do it. Slowly, but surely, you will wean yourself away from your addiction.
TO PEGASUS: I do not agree with you that hypoglycemia can cause this. My brother has hypoglycemia and is not addicted to anything! People become addicted because they find something that makes them feel good, and they feel they can't stop.....not because they are sick!

You need to just stop.
If that doesn't cure you, contact a professional.
