    Porn addiction
    I think my husband is addicted to porn and I have no idea what to do. I've tried talking to him and that didn't work. So I decided to make it so he couldn't get to porn... I made it so I had to log him on the computer and I caught him the other day trying to download porn while I was sitting 5ft away from him! I don't know what to do anymore... anyone have any ideas?

    Disconnect the internet from your house and get him into counseling.

    This filthy habit was not acquired overnight. He must have been into this type of thing for a long time prior to you stumbling onto it.

    If you don't need the computer, may I suggest getting rid of it completely or just disconnect it from the internet totally.

    It also depends on how hooked he is to this filth. If he would rather download the porn and have sex with himself while watching it (rather than with you), then he has a huge problem. If he does this type of activity several times a day he has real deep seated problems.

    If you have children, I hope he does not expose them to this type of filth.

    What does he say about his habit? Is he open about this or does he deny this?

    Does he just look at pictures or does he download movies? Does he pay for this porn?

    Porn addiction should be handled just like any other. With a 12 step program and counseling. It WILL work, when and if he realizes he has a problem . Then, and only then, will he do better.If he's reluctant to go, you're just spinning your wheels. Try this site, they're free, anonymous, and worldwide. I wish you the best of luck.
