    When I come across pornography, in any form, I constantly get the desire to masturbate... How do I stop this? What is the best thing to do if that desire comes up??

    In the early days of your reboot, you need to find a way to eliminate viewing any sort of pornography. K9 Web Protection is a free web blocker that can block, whatever you like really. It's a great tool to use in the early stages of your reboot.

    Real life triggers are, in a way, harder to deal with. You will have to exercise some self control to stay away from real life triggers. With time, provided you are able to abstain from both porn and masturbation, you will develop self control which will enable you to cope with triggers better (and the ability to think rationally).

    Otherwise, if you innocently stumble across a trigger and desire to masturbate, go and take an ice cold shower! They work great.

    Good luck! :)

    Just want to add to the previous post that opendns on your home network, plus website restrictions on your phone (iOS devices at least) also help a lot with keeping you away from p.

    Thank you for the advise, and yes I think self control is my biggest issue... as well as everyone else! I think web protections is a great start for me an others that are addicted.
