I am a teenage girl, and I am addicted to written porn. I feel really ashamed about it. My parents would be angry at me if I told them so there is no way I am going to. I am struggling with self-loathing because of this problem.
Consider This:
- It sounds like you are struggling with self-loathing because of the shame you are feeling. It takes a strong individual to seek advice for such a personal issue.
- Consider the fact that there is no danger to reading porn and it is completely safe for you to do. It is also something private and personal that you do not need to share with anyone including your parents.
- Trouble arises when your interest in written porn precludes you from partaking in those things that you like to do or are required to do.
- Teens are often curious about sex and want to learn more. It is completely normal to watch or read porn.
- Talk to a friend about sex. It is healthy to have these conversations since you are turning into a young adult.
Help Yourself:
- What makes you interested in written porn?
- Why do you feel that porn is bad?
- How does your addiction put you in danger?
- How has your interest in written porn impacted other parts of your life?
- How would you advise a friend that came to you with this issue?
