A question.

I hate to think I've offended or hurt anyone, so I'd like to say I'm sorry.

Heres a short version of what I'm trying to say:

For about a year and a half, starting when I was 13, I had an addiction to pornography. I would spend 4 hours + looking at this stuff. This was revealed to my parents during a month long hospitalization for psychosis and depression, which resulted in restrictions, such as parental controls, being put on our computers. It hit me hard. I am now four months free of porn and almost 15. My doctors and my parents want to talk about taking the restrictions off our computers. It's very close to happening. But I feel a lot of hesistation. I don't want to slip back into a world where everything is dependant on one more picture or 15 more minutes. At the same time, I feel like I'm ready, and have been perfectly capable for a while. I would like some advice on this issue: do you think 4 months is way too soon, or is it just enough? Again, I'm sorry about any earlier comments or postings.

Thank-you.

I would wait to have the controls taken off hon. 4 months isn't really far out and the temptation might still be there. thank you for the repost! one thing you have to realize first I think though is that boys your age do look at that stuff. something about those hormones I think pretty normal behavior in my opinion. looking at it for 4 hrs a day though becomes a problem. please wait to have those controls removed.

Thank-you. I seem to think thats the right decision as well, but I just wanted some other opinions.

good luck hon. you seem much more mature than your stated age btw. I think you will do well in your quest to improve your behavior.

There is more to life than pornography. In reality it is just people doing jobs, there is no love or true passion behind it. It's cold, mechanical and scripted.

The sooner you realize this, the faster you'll get over ur addiction.

Believe me, you dont want to be addicted to this stuff!! it'll make you feel like crap.
