    Hi all. The Internet, the solution to and cause of all of life’s problems.

    (Bonus points if you recognise the original quote)

    One way to not use porn or porn substitutes is to stop using the Internet. But it is useful in this day and age. And it gives so much, like this awesome website. So whilst I don’t think you should just cut the web completely out of your life. You can definitely get positive benefits by cutting your usage. So I propose a challenge. Try to go one full day without going online even better go one full day without using any screens so that cuts out computers, tablets, phones, gaming devices and television. Just think of the things that could be done instead.

    So that’s why I’ve created this thread. For people to write their experiences of going Internet free (or screen free) for a day...or more if you are so inclined.

    For me personally I waste a huge amount of my time online, which does mean I’m more tempted to relapse. So I’m planning to do an Internet free day sometime this week, I’m thinking Saturday or Sunday.

    Good luck. I have been internet-free since 2017 and I became insane.

    We shouldn't cut the internet out of our lives, all we need is self-control the thing is having self-control isn't an easy thing to achieve. We are impulsive in our nature and that's part of the reason we are here.

    But yes too much internet is bad for you, specially if you tend to dwelling in social media (facebook, instagram etc...)
    My point is use the internet with a purpose that will benefit you, if you cant then try to keep it to a minimum.

    Best wishes,

    Well, I restricted my devices through a friend, so I cannot watch porn. I do more important things, instant of losing time on youtube or P.

    Less Internet. No TV no Radio = Using time better.

    Really? Did you cut it out completely? I mean you must use it still a little bit, the fact you are on here, means you do use the internet. Still kudos to you. There must have been some advantages.

    Some drug addict stole my telephone cables and the company never put them back. I am using my phone's data to be here. No real advantages.

    Aaah I see, bloody drug addicts eh. I'm guessing it was stolen for the copper wiring, which is worth a lot in a scrap yard. I've been on trains that have been delayed because the the communication cables were stolen for their scrap value.

    Exactly. There is some islands nerby where all the stolen copper is bought. I just hope the drug addict had an overdose.
