    I'm a little drunk right now. so apaologies for bad typing.

    I have never had a problem with drinking. I like to get a little drunk once in a while, and I enjoy drinking moderately. I like the taste of beer, nice ones, no tbudweiser.

    I had one therapist who said that having a few drinks in the eveneing to lower my sex drive and stop me from looking at porn was better than feeding my porn addiction. I kind of agree, but I wonder where the line can be drawn.

    I didn't like that hterapist for other reasons. I should talk about this idea with my current therapist, who I do have a pretty good rapport witgh.

    haha, this would be so much better ritten and explained if i were sober. but i think this is good enough. I was abou to go jerk off to get to sleep, then I had abouther shot of bourbon, now I am just going to lay down and m brain will shut off for a few hours. I don't want o make this a reugular thing, but I think on some level it does help.

    I would ask another doctor. I don't drink much, but one time that I can only just remember, drinking made me want to watch more and more P. It could easily be different for you, but I would do some investigating before drinking too much.

    To paraphrase a Samuel Johnson quote; 'when solitary, do not drink; when drinking, be not solitary'.:)

    Drinking definitely enabled my porn addiction.

    I justified it by saying "It's okay, you've had a few drinks. No big deal to watch some. If you were sober, you wouldn't, so that means you're in control."
