Score Range 0-12 Your answers are telling you something you probably already know.
Taking this quiz took honesty. And the fact that you’re here – asking this question about yourself rather than waiting for someone else to raise it – says something important about you.
Your answers reflect a pattern of porn use that has moved beyond casual or recreational into something that is affecting your life in real ways. Your relationship, your intimacy, your sense of control, your self-image – one or more of these is being impacted, and the pattern has become difficult to change on your own.
This is not a moral failing. It is not a reflection of your character. What you’re describing has a name – problematic porn use, or compulsive sexual behaviour – and it is more common than most people realise, and more treatable than most people believe.
The shame cycle that often surrounds this issue is one of the things that makes it hardest to address. Because shame tends to drive the very behaviour it’s attached to. The way through it is not more willpower, more guilt or more failed attempts to stop. It’s understanding what drives the behaviour, what need it’s meeting, and how to address that in a healthier way.
That’s work that is best done with a skilled therapist who understands this area – without judgment, and with a genuine pathway forward.
