I don’t consume much traditional porn but I do read a lot of erotica and look at a lot of hentai and yiff. I usually masturbate at least once a day, usually right before bed ao I can fall asleep easier and sometimes in the mornings to get me out of bed. Sounds weird but super depressed and I know that when I just can’t find a reason to get out of bed if I can get myself to masturbate it usually leaves me in a more active state, not necessarily better but able to start soing stuff. Consumed a lot of real porn when I was a teenager. Only had sex a few times, a few men and a couple women and it’s probably just me but porn never set unrealistic standards for sex for me. The only real porn I watch nowadays is basically homemade redgifs clips posted in a butt stuffing discord im in. I feel like I have a harder time masturbating to my imagination nowadays, but I’m also masturbating a lot more than I used too and am also on brain meds so hard to tell if that’s an affect of porn overconsumption or not.

I’ve made some porn, I have over 100k views on redgifs, really blew my mind cause it’s about as amateur as it gets. Was really nice to feel attractive, desireable even. Wouldn’t have minded doing it for a living but I doubt I could have made real money and I can’t wnjoy anal that much anymore anyway. Plus I think it would have been hard to keep it fresh, and I wouldn’t like to show my face ao that would have limited me quite a bit.

I wouldn’t call myself addicted to porn, more like I self medicate with masturbation and the types of porn I consume (erotica, hentai, yiff) are a tool for that. It might be a problem if I had a partner, masturbating too frequently makes it harder to get aroused and cum, but I don’t date cause I’d be a terrible worthless partner, so it’s not a problem.
