I feel like I am really addicted to porn from time to time.
i usually browse porn for almot 5-6 hours everyday. Is this normal in this community? or is it just me?

It's probably "normal" for this forum, but yeah it sounds like an addiction - you're preoccupied and spending excessive amounts of time on it.
Proceed with caution and look up PIED - it's becoming a common problem for young men (myself included).

I agree it sound problematic to me.
But i think the main question is, why are you doing this?
For example is it because of boredom/procrastination, sexual lust or simply for improving your mood.
What i'm trying to say is, imo this can be a symptom of a another problem.

That sounds like you're either addicted to porn, or you're running hard from something inside yourself.

Are you just automatically horny, or do you start browsing porn when you're bored, or do you look at it when you have a certain (non-sexual) feeling/set of feelings?

Man if you cannot stop to doing some things like this, it is possible you be a adducted

[thundereder9t8y]

5-6 hours is pretty normal

[zzz radio]

if you know its bad and cannot stop, i think you addicted like me..

[Hungstart]

Yeah for sure normal bro

[Ultimate-Captain]

Seems like a lot to me. I feel like that is probably due to something else right? Boredom or something? Maybe find a hobby that you like to spend time doing and your watching time will naturally decrease a bit.

I think you can be your own judge of whether that's excessive or not. Porn use has gone up because of the pandemic and it can be a reasonable resource to cope with isolation, but you might want to look into taking up other activities that interest you.

You might need a new hobby, too much to yourself makes you do that.

[thahaxur]

isnt that a porn addiction?

[Toríbio Cambará]

sorry, but you should try to decrease this time. it's not healthy

[Korho -]

Sometimes i also jump in "porn world" for many hours. But not more than few time a month.

[Bakase]

Oh man, exactly the same, I spend so much time look for porn, and think it's not normal

[AsianGains]

try to find some hobbies bro, don't invest too much time in this - you literally won't gain anything

[Johnny Banger]

I think average would be 1-3 hours at most. I’m also pretty far over this, about the same as you haha

[Valeriaa]

When you say “from time to time” what do you mean exactly? Is it like for a week straight every few months or is it for longer like months on end then a break in between? Because every now and then I’ll have A DAY where I’m super horny and browse porn for like 8 hours but that’s like once every few months. The way you described it (at least IMO) makes it sound like an addiction but you also say “from time to time” which makes it sound like less of an addiction.

The scale that I have to pay

5-6 hours is a bit much... Is it affecting other parts of your life? If it is, I'd say that's worth looking into. That's almost the amount of time for a full time job, if you try to put it into perspective. Sometimes I feel like trying to distract myself with other hobbies helps.
