Will rebooting diminish my kink?

    New user here, really excited to hear about others' success with rebooting. Had no idea I was flatlining after quitting porn, thought I was broken.
    I'm wondering if rebooting will also diminish a certain kink that developed during my porn habits. I think I'm a cuckold, and I wish I wasn't. I get super aroused when thinking about it and I'm hoping that diminishes overtime. Has anyone experienced this? I think it came about from using porn compulsively to get through hard break ups or something

    It appears that it is your fantasy that developed and not your reality. In that case I think rebooting might be of help. As you block porn during reboot you will also block such fantasies IMO otherwise it is not a reboot. Stop feeding such fantasies then it may help removing your kink too.
    It is a great question. I hope more experienced rebooters answer this as well.

    From my experience, the answer is Yes. I pretty quickly began to have “normal” fantasies around penetration and such, just really wanting to bond deeply with my gf, and this led to much more fulfilling sex.

    I think the kinky stuff returns if we relapse-it may always be your “drug of choice” so to speak if you pick it up again. That has been my experience.

    You can perhaps use some elements of your P induced fantasy to accentuate a healthy sex life. Maybe you like to give pleasure to your gf and so there are many great ways to do that in a healthy way, without trashing yourself, which is always the outcome with P.

    It seems easy right now to abstain from porn, because I'm flatlined. However when it's all over, do most people tend to relapse once in awhile? If people just watch porn once in a blue moon do they risk having to go through another 90 day period of PIED?

    I’m still relatively new myself but from what I’ve read most people on here do tend to relapse. It could be that those who successfully abstain don’t come back here as often.

    It’s a setback when you relapse, there’s no way around it but the journey is different for everyone.

    For me, the PIED kicks in pretty quick if I go consecutive days on relapse or if I binge (5-6 sessions in a day, for example). As this addiction becomes more advanced, it’s more difficult to relapse without binging, from what I’ve experienced, thus the abstinence is key. When you relapse, you make up for all the days of abstinence in a short time by binging, which then leaves you empty and wounded.

    Want to add to be careful when you’re feeling good and it seems easy. I’ve been there and used that feeling of confidence to justify a brief relapse, which then turned into an ugly binge that left me down and out. Always keep your guard up, especially when you’re feeling good.

    Thank you for the sound advice, I know what you mean. Does anyone else have any experiences with porn induced kinks going away after abstinence?
     
  8. In my honest opinion if you have a kink that you go threw porn then abstaning from porn it should go away. But if you are trully turned on by a kink amd porn mever influenced you then that is who you are. For example i will use two i love it when a women swallows but i only watched lesbian porn second i love chocking and now simce i trully have given up porn and jerking of my desires and kinks are getting stronger and i want to do them with a women because they are who i am if any of this makes any sense
