1. Increased frequency in watching or reading pornography
2. Lose track of time while watching for several hours on end
3. Spending more money to want a greater variety and better satisfaction
4. Rearranging your schedule and making up excuses in order to make time for pornography
5. Experiencing physical or psychological symptoms when trying to stop, such as anger, depression, irritability, and stress
