How to deal with sextortion?

I'm an older married to a woman submissive fag. I am addicted to alpha men and also to some degree to exposure among that group of men. Sometimes when I share my photos at some point there becomes an issue or a demand for money or I will be exposed. This has happened to me at least five times over the last few years. I've never actually paid but it does create great anxiety. This has happened on X and Kik and Reddit and on Grindr. What are your thoughts on this? Do I need to just stop what I'm doing and stay off the internet since I have this addiction?
