I’m addicted to porn & escorts—I hate myself for it

Question

I need help

Ever since I was child I got addicted to pornography, this was my getaway for any stress I’ve faced whether at home, school or uni later on.

After a couple of terrible relationship experiences I no longer got the same stress relief from porn, so I started meeting escorts, I’ve met a lot over and over again.

I know I’m addicted, I hate this and every once in a while I stop then I come back to this, I realise I can’t have a relationship with this going on, I blame myself, and I continue hating myself for doing this. I tried sexaholics anonymous and I didn’t feel comfortable, I don’t know what to do.
