I think I may have been addicted to masturbating. I remember as a kid I used to watch porn sometimes with my older sister, so I'd been exposed to porn for a very long time. But a few years ago I started watching porn again. The first video I saw I couldn't even watch it for more than a few seconds because I was physically shaking, I don't know if from excitement or from pleasure. But as I did it more often I began to use items from around the house. Rounded ends of forks, make up brushes, hair brushes, pretty much anything with a rounded end and of course it felt good. I would watch so many porn videos and play online animated sex games and stuff. It was a very strange time in my life. I was only young so I knew it wasn't normal for kids my age to be doing that kind of thing. I'd do it for hours over the weekend and at night when I was alone and everyone was asleep. Since then I've stopped doing it so often and only occasionally do it when I feel the need. But I'm worried that watching that kind of explicit material and masturbating so frequently at such a young age may have effected me negatively. Do you think I was actually addicted to masturbating, or was it just a phase I went through??
