If you want to break free from this addiction, you have already begun at correct first step: Admit it's a problem. You are right to call the lust for images a problem, contrary to the others who try to justify it. Loneliness can be related to the porn problem. Porn can take the place of people. But the images don't even know you exist and they care nothing about you. Porn also causes people to view others only for the value of their physical appearance, instead of seeing the value of their personality, their real spiritual self. Addiction is a spiritual problem and the best way to overcome an addiction is with spiritual help. The Holy Spirit wants to help you to be pure, clean, to be at peace and free of anxiety, to be loving and to receive love. God's fundamental nature is love. So if you want the best help, pray from any location to the Lord himself and ask him for strength to overcome any addiction, and he will help. He earned the right to do so by dying on the cross in your place, so when you call on Jesus, he will give you strength from his all-powerful Holy Spirit to overcome any sin. You can pray like this: Heavenly Father, you are holy and free from sin. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give me this day my daily bread. Forgive me my sins as I forgive others. And lead me not into temptation, but deliver me from evil!
I also pray for you now and I hope to see you make progress!
