I'm 43 and an anime addict

[Hector]

Ever since the incident, I've found myself turning to anime more and more for comfort. I'm talking like 5-10 episodes a day for the last 2 months. I've been spending all my free time watching anime online and even masturbating to some anime. It's just getting bad. I've become obsessed with anime and anime girls. I spend most of the day watching anime, then I jerk off to the anime girls. I'm always looking for something to distract myself, to numb the pain of what happened and the humiliation I've been through. It's like I can escape into these animated worlds and forget about everything. At 43, it seems silly to still be obsessing over cartoons for teenagers, but I can't help it. I've tried to quit, but I just keep coming back to it. There's something about the colorful characters and over-the-top plots that draw me in every single time. And now that I'm going through something so painful and humiliating, I find myself turning to anime more than ever. It's become a crutch for me, but I'm not sure how to stop.

Same situation when I was 16 lol I used to cope with anime very hard

I’d get home from school workout at my house eat shower then watch like 8 episodes of an anime

5-10 episodes? A truecel watches a full season or series a day.

5-10 is still a normal range i'd say , you are not as into it as you think you are . I went through this too , usually I just pick a long anime (100 episodes+) and watch 3 episodes daily , the length will keep you away from going on a binge

This is fine. A cope a day keeps the rope away. I'd say double down on it, go even deeper into anime.

Only for two months? Rookie numbers your still a noob lol, all jokes aside I know exactly what type of feelings your describing and I know it almost TOO well. Something about the anime medium is extremely cozy and comforting I can’t put it into words but it truly is S tier escapism, the vibe and atheistics of anime is extremely unique and you can’t really find anything else like it anywhere. Again the feeling for me is hard to describe, it’s intangible and ineffable but when you talk about escaping to another cartoon fantasy world, I get it 100%. Also “I don’t know how to stop” you don’t need to stop if you love or enjoy it dude, your not doing anything wrong and there’s nothing to feel ashamed of, don’t force yourself to stop doing something you love when you aren’t doing anything wrong. Watch as much anime as you want and enjoy to your hearts content
