Porn-Addicted Children Are A 'Regrettable' Reality, Therapist Says
Former Strictly Come Dancing winner Ore Oduba has opened up about his decades-long addiction to pornography.
On the We Need To Talk podcast, he said: “Nine, that is when my addiction started, when I was introduced to pornography.”
Describing the experience as “isolating”, he added: “This is, I believe, one of the biggest problems we have societally. There is such a prevalence.”
Speaking to HuffPost UK, psychotherapist Dr Paula Hall, who founded sex and porn addiction provider The Laurel Centre and sex and porn addiction support hub Pivotal Recovery, said this reflects what she sees in her practice.
“Regrettably, we see this a lot,” she said.
“According to our stats at Pivotal Recovery, [among those] who are seeking help for problematic porn use, 51% say their problem started under the age of 15, 15% said under the age of 12.
