It took me a long time to figure this out but - would you judge a friend for having kinks? If it was someone else, not you, who was into whatever this is, would you treat them how you are treating yourself?

Think of yourself as a friend, don't judge. If you aren't wanting something truly non consensual, don't judge yourself. Enjoy what you enjoy, you probably are not the only one who does.

Now - having said all that, I'm assuming that you really do enjoy what you enjoy. There are situations where you get sort of dragged along by an algorithm, not something coming from your own desire. In that case sure, maybe de-escalate some and see if you get more enjoyment that way. But still, don't judge. You did not build that algorithm.

    Hi. Really appreciate your response. And I can agree with this.

    Like I told someone else, though: the concern isn’t just the kinks. It is was the type of material involved. Now, I never went for anything illegal. But it toes a moral line, and maybe a legal one. There is also the fact that my kink was viewing porn with other people, and I used discord dms for this.

    It was 100% consensual. But out of all the people I met who did this my worry is that the chances of any one of them being a minor is not 0%. And so that has me feeling gross and worried as well. I could barely sleep.

    I hope you can let this go. It was not your intent to do something illegal and you almost certainly didn't accidentally do anything illegal either.

    It is ok to like even gross things, lol. Women make money on onlyfans doing things I find gross but they have a paying audience. You are obviously not alone if you found others who were into the same stuff. It's going to be ok.

    Don't overreact. Breathe, give yourself grace, you are a person like all of us.

    And again I hope you can relax soon.
