As somebody with lots of experience with addictions to both illegal drugs and porn/masturbation/sex, I can personally attest there’s a lot of overlap in the secretive behavior, the lying, the feelings of shame and guilt, also the way it’s a “quick reward” which may be worth it in the very short term, but which quickly becomes a severe burden and impacts life in a drastically negative way in the very immediate long term (if that makes sense…)
Another similarity is the tolerance factor - needing stronger and stronger stuff to get the same high, except with porn it’s more depraved and depraved.
There was a South Park episode which kind of joked about Randy Marsh getting addicted to porn, and before long he was watching Japanese vomit porn and all sorts of disgusting stuff … It was a joke but it’s actually not far off how it actually works.
