I think you're looking at this the wrong way. It's not necessarily blacked that's ruining your life, it's a dependency on porn and its consequences for your brain that is.
As much as Bleached loves to grandstand over Blacked as being the wholesome version of raceplay, you can find pedophilia, genuine racism and the same energy of ''kill/enslave the men, take the women'' here. Sure, the latter wouldn't target you here as it would in Blacked and it is good that you realize it's not making you happier to be in that space, I just doubt you would miraculously glow up from being in Bleached instead.
You mention relapsing, and you should take that seriously. I've been around addicts of all kinds before, from drugs to sex/love to alcoholics, but an addiction is an addiction. It's a real disease that doesn't discriminate and will only get worse if left unchecked. Porn addiction isn't some funny, quirky kink thing that you just do for the hell of it. You sound like you're struggling, and you deserve to feel happier and healthier. That's not going to happen as long as you keep surrounding yourself with enabling factors, the colour of said factors is not relevant, just like how an alcoholic that used to slam whiskey wouldn't be able to stay sober drinking cognac instead.
Wish you the best.
Yes, i generally agree with this in that porn addiction is the main problem, the issue is, especially for men, almost all are addicted to porn unless they get a healthy sexual relationship early enough cause unlike alcohol or drugs or gambling, sex is kinda deeply ingrained into us. Being horny isnt something that you can just cause to go away by resisting the urge to relapse long enough. It will always come back, unless you get really old that your sex drive dies out.
