Chicken or the egg?

I don’t know what is worse, porn or masturbation or both? Plus, I have a fetish that energed in puberty and causes tremendous anxiety. Admittedly I am stuck in a loop of anxiety. I have stopped dating at age 37 and am afraid to now because of all these issues. I stop porn and masturbation and have anxiety and no libido.

Plus excessive porn use caused me to experience more arousal around other fetishes. Its not good and I am not in a good mental space.

Masturbation is healthy and encourages blood flow and muscle maintenance.
It’s unhealthy when paired with specific arousal templates, where only one method is used to get off.
