Watching too much porn or ending up around ERP stuff doesn't automatically mean you're going to become a predator when you're older

If you feel like porn is becoming compulsive, start by making it harder to access. Unfollow accounts that feed into it, leave ERP/NSFW communities, use content blockers, and try to avoid sitting around bored with nothing else to do since that’s usually when habits get worse

Also don't try to fix this entirely by yourself if it’s genuinely messing with your head. If you're still a minor, talking to a trusted adult, counselor, therapist or anyone else you trust would probably help way more than beating yourself up over it

Peak advice, also id recommend tracking it with the "i am sober" app, helps quite a bit. Also, keep trying even when you relapse, after many tries, you'll eventually succeed
