How does a person get over their addiction to watching inappropriate videos (pornography)?
I’ll strongly suggest you seek a professional help if you can’t seem to get hold yourself when it comes to seeing inappropriate videos. A lot of people don’t even know how they ended up getting addicted to seeing porns, this, a therapist can help you identify. Counseling sessions will help you understand what caused the compulsion in the first place. Your therapist can help you develop effective coping mechanisms to change your relationship with pornographic materials.
—Delete electronic porn and bookmarks on all your devices.
—Discard all your hard-copy porn.
—Have someone else install anti-porn software on your electronic devices without giving you the password.
—Have a plan and choose another activity or two that you can turn to when that powerful urge hits.
—When you want to view porn, remind yourself how it has affected your life, write it down if that helps.
—Consider if there are any triggers and try to avoid them.
