Internet Addiction and Porn Addiction are a dangerous combination.
If someone is addicted to porn and has Internet addiction, they are playing with fire.
It's way too easy to stray off the path. All it can take is one ad to trigger a
downward spiral. If the addict is not on guard, the fight can be over before
it truly begins. The moment a suggestive picture is seen the addict must look
away. If he fools himself to believing he can look for a little while and then
change the page, he is mistaken.
This is what
happens to so many addicts. They don't understand the depth of their mental
programming. Once the mind starts to follow a deeply ingrained path, it's hard
to alter course. The further down the path the harder it becomes to stop until
it's too late. It reminds me of a sign on a country road; "Chose your ruts
carefully. You'll be in them for the next 10 miles."
Take a look at
people on their smart phones. Internet addiction has been funneling into Facebook addiction. I see a large majority of
people not able to get of Facebook for more than a few hours. Someone who
is not careful can actually run into full out porn on Facebook. At the very least they see the suggestive pictures on the side ads as previously mentioned.
So, if you are an
addict and you have to be on the Internet, be sure you realize that you are
skating on thin ice. One wrong step and you might be in over your head.
