This question inevitably comes up, and for good reason. It's hard to make sense of why one would continue to engage in a behavior, despite the knowledge that it could negatively impact their life.
I believe that part of the explanation lies in the answer to another question: What are the benefits of using porn?
One common response is that it's soothing, or relieves stress.
Of course, part of any recovery plan would involve looking for healthier ways to accomplish these necessary functions.
Another part of "the why" has to do with personal history and the childhood development of the need to self-soothe.
