How can I support my boyfriend with him stopping watching porn?

Question

I have never had a problem with porn or him watching it but he came to me and said that he thinks he has an issue with watching it too much (it has never effected our sex life and we have been together 7 years) and asked for my help to help him stop. I want to be there for him because he wants to stop. Has anyone ever been through this and how can I be supportive for him? Thank you!

Answer

I’ve personally never gone through it but I would suggest getting him a therapist. It’s not crazy, I promise people go to therapy for it all the time and it helps.

Answer

This is something only he can do really. Be there if he wants to discuss it but nothing you can do can make him stop an addiction if it really is an addiction.

Answer

It's amazing in itself that he came to you and admitted he has a problem. That's the first step. I definitely recommend some counseling for him. It's just like any other addiction and he'll need lots of support to break it. But he's on the right path. Good luck to you both!
