10000 Xs this. I was this guy till I became Catholic. Lust hollowed me out till there was nothing left of me. Those little things in life that used to bring me joy were gone - all I wanted was sex.
The good part about being socially awkward and broke is that I really couldn't act on anything so it was all internet filth for me. It still hollowed me out.
The fight back has been hard. I quit masturbating pretty quickly after converting (God had started working on me years before though). But regaining my life has been slow going.
Lust is a prison, but like you said, you don't feel the bars until you try and leave.
Fornication may feel good in the moment, but it's not worth it.
