A first-person account (from a YouTube video by Anne Truong MD) describing how pornography addiction harmed the speaker's professional life: they avoided work to watch porn and masturbate, missed deadlines that caused colleagues and clients to suffer, stopped doing marketing, and felt the addiction ultimately 'destroyed' their life. The clip highlights direct workplace consequences (project delays, team impact) and severe personal cost.

What I would do is instead of doing my work, I would watch porn and masturbate, and I would miss deadlines. And then a lot of colleagues who were supposed to work after me, they would suffer, and we would miss the deadline with a client. And that was one thing with projects, but I didn't do any marketing at all. So porn is like that band, a rubber band that's holding you. And I was trying to get rid of it, and I never could until I literally destroyed my life.
