Using porn as an outlet/masturbation to deal with depression in winter

I've felt really depressed at times during the winter time this year and have turned to porn/masturbation as an outlet for my depression. I used to feel bad for using porn, however I feel there is no good or bad only our thinking makes it so. I really don't know what to make of my habitual self gratification but I know it helps me when I feel lonely/depressed.
Please comment.Thanks

    I can actually relate. I often get depressed in winter, and porn is something I've turned to before when I've been depressed. I've hardly watched it this winter because I've been trying hard not to, but the urge is higher than it was in the summer.

    You should look into something called "light therapy", if you haven't already. It's recommended to treat seasonal depression - my dad has a problem with seasonal depression and swears by it. All you need is a light box, which aren't very expensive. As of yesterday I've started using one, although of course I don't notice any difference yet :P

    Yes.

    I don't get depressed, but I did feel better after fapping 5 times yesterday.
