Your problem is not you. It's the label that our present day socieity has placed on sex. We think that sexual desires are evil and dirty. The act of *seeing* two persons making love stimulates a very real and physical reaction in our brain that in turn leads to the pleasures associated with sex. It is only our conditioning and programming that leaves the *horrible* after effect that you are experiencing. This conditioning comes from societal influences, maybe church, family etc. If we were not meant to be stimulated from seeing such acts, why is the brain designed to do otherwise?
The only help you need is to recondition your mind to accept the eroticism in sex.

You don't have an addiction problem... you have a different problem. In believing society's bullcrap that porn is bad. It's actually not bad. Or evil. It's actually a healthier alternative to sex with all the STDs flying around nowadays. Of course, it's not as good as sex. Risk vs reward, ya know.
Anyway, porn is fine and you don't need to worry about it. You should not feel disgusted with yourself. Humans are sexual creatures by nature. It's society that is unhealthy.
Don't ever believe that what you feel is wrong and simply block it out. Seek to understand it and embrace that part of yourself regardless of what society says. Especially the puritan retards that think they know what's best for everyone.

You can try cold turkey - stop watching it.
You can punish yourself for watching it, but it seems you are doing that.
I think that eventually you can saturate yourself with it - watch it until it no longer gives you a thrill. Eventually you may become less fascinated with it, especially as you grow older or when you develop an interest in a live person.
Another possibility is that you can develop empathy for people by donating time to a soup kitchen or collecting food and clothes for the poor, possibly through a church. No one has to know your 'problem' and developing an interest in real people may help.

My advice is to probably ask yourself why you are addicted. Write down on the peice of paper why you are addicted and why you fee sick afterwards. You are actually addressing this problem if you write it down on a peice of paper. After you evaluate you then make a list of what keeps you busy. Distract yourself and also realize you can do something more precious and valuble with your time then to watch people physically promote themselves in a provokative manner. Remember the only way to get rid of it is to have a determined attitude and to address the reasons as to why you are addicted. Realize that there is something you lack to replace this addiction. Go to a gym, go for a walk, be active and take care of yourself in a health way physically, mentally and spiritually. Challenge yourself in all aspects that lead to positive outcomes, surely your addictions will go away.

Any addiction is bad. To tobacco, to alcohol, to gambling. If the person is able to controll the activity and it occurs in the terms that you set for yourself, any activity, as reprhensible as many may find porno, can be more or less tamed.
Some addictions are harder to quit, than others.
Drugs for instance, they grab hold at the very part of the brain that rewards you, and feel good when you achieve something, and require no effort or ability, it is the instant gratification with cero effort that keeps the crack heads coming back to a dark alley for yet another fix.
Maybe the porno you are watching is filling an empty space, and gives you instant gratification without the effort of selecting a worthy, disese free, mature, socially and monetarily stable sex partner, or waiting untill you are old enough to find a worthy husband, and have the blessing of your church, and God, which is important to many of us.
Before you watch the next porno movie analyze what is it that it gives you.
If you cannot fight the urge to watch it, analyze what makes it soo reprehensible in your eyes.
Don't feel guilty. It took me 7 years to fight my addiction to cigarrettes. If porno is half as good as smoking, I feel for you. It really has to be good.
Every time I picked up a pack of cigarrettes I swore it was the last one, and during 7 years I lied to myself. Eventually I was able to quit, I had a big incentive, my wife was pregnant with our first girl, and I didn't want my baby arround smokers.
You may want to find a good incentive ot kick your habit, if you find it so depressing afer you have given into it.
There is no shame in falling, you are not perfect.
However if you fall from grace in your own eyes, you owe it to yoursef to get up, try again and again untill you stop doing something, anything that makes you feel bad. Thay way you can feel good about yourself. That is the most immportant measure of life, that you do what is good, and that you feel good about it.
If somethig is bad and makes you feel good, reanalyze your priorities. Something has to be meditated, doing good or bad is not merely spiritual.
When you choose a good habit, you reap good rewards.
Habits become part of your personality, one has to replace a bad habit with a good one and stick to it. Like any action, it takes 6 weeks of daily repetition before an action can become a habit. Try to avoid your bad habit only one day at the time. count the days, every time you fail, you only have to start counting one day at the time.

1.Chill out. Don't take it so seriously. 2.The way to break any habit is to replace it with a better one. Maybe try cooking, or crossword puzzle, or razor scooter stunts, or whatever new hobby you can get into. 3.Also, the best way to quit something is to keep quitting again and again if you fall back and eventually you will succeed. Cheers!

I feel you. Tell yourself you cant do it. It will hurt so much not to do what your heart desires but, think about how good you'll feel after knowing you aren't hooked on something as evil & disgusting as porn. It only takes dedication & determination. You can do it = )

OK, so why is watching porn bad? Does it interfere with your life or your ability to function?
If it is, then get professional help. There are no porn rehabs.
If it isn't, then lighten up and enjoy yourself.

you don't need help. Follow the nature and if you feel like watching watch it and enjoy it and there will be a day when you will not feel like watching enjoy that day as well.

Unless this behavior is hurting others or yourself, don't worry about it.
Better than doing drugs!!
Don't feel guilty about normal human sexual behavior.
