An article reviewed by a psychiatrist lists eight warning signs. Feeling guilty after watching. Being unable to have sex without it. Watching for longer and longer. Continuing although it is harming your life. Spending hours searching, forgetting duties and even sleep. Pressuring a partner to watch or re-enact scenes. Needing it to regulate mood.
