You made three claims:

  1. Fueling the child addiction will harden the persons mental health problem.

  2. One of the ways to help a person with such addiction, is to replace it with adult pornography.

  3. Fueling it with more of that content won’t do any good.

I asked for a source for these claims because obviously you didn't just come up with this yourself, so I'm assuming there's some study to back these claims up which I asked you to provide, and instead you gave me a link that even you admitted doesn't talk about any of this.

Also:

It’s obviously stated there is psychological help.

From the study you linked:

..healthcare providers must rely on data from international literature. These clearly demonstrate that simple psychotherapies do not lead to a reduction in the risk of reoffending. On the other hand, therapies such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and, even more so, the combination of CBT with pharmacotherapy targeting hormones, significantly reduces the risk of reoffending.

Well maybe psychological help may not be the right word in English. But there are still treatment shown there.

For the rest fueling the child addiction is the same thing as porn addiction in what I tried to explain.

Both adult porn and underage content could be "related" in the sense of addiction, but different in the category of content.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pornography_addiction

For an addiction, like porn, it is hard to get out because it becomes an habit (it can be compared to gambling...). And changing the habit is very difficult. It becomes impulsive.

A solution to get out of such addiction, is to find another habit (in addition of adequate treatment or therapy). which will take the place of the porn addiction.

A could be similarly be translated to aldult/child content.

As stated in that study, most of the people considered attracted to childrens also have attraction to adult partners/content.

... studies have shown that only 7% of pedophiles are exclusively. The vast majority of pedophiles are therefore non-exclusive and have sex with adults in 93% of cases [2].

So a possible way could be the replacement of the child content with adult content.

Which is where the investigative journal I talked about comes in. I don't remember where and when (not something I look for...). But they went and interviewed a special medical house where people could be put, or go to get help and treatment.

I don't remember the %. But they found some success for people not falling back into children content.
