    of course every addiction has triggers .. i thought i might share some of mine with you :
    1- staying up late.
    2-fear of anything (a test-the future-someone ..etc).
    3-boredom .
    4-watching arousing scene or being involved in a sex conversation .

    i can't think of more at the moment .. please share yours and also if you have any creative ideas as to how i can eliminate these threats other than just avoiding themo_O.

    For me, the biggest trigger would be boredom.

    As long as I keep myself busy, with whatever, studying, watching a movie, chatting with people, gym, ..
    Nothing will trigger me into PMO.

    1. Women in general. I admire the female body. I just wish I can keep that admiration as just a healthy non-sexual admiration.
    2. WORLDSTARHIPHOP
    3. Erotic movies on Netflix
    4. Boredom
    5. Stress

    you know man maybe a good way to deal with #1 is to think of it like this : if you admire and respect women then you wouldn't make them tool for your sexual arousal and satisfaction rather you look at them as human beings who has rights to be respected and not humiliated in such way (to be a sexual tool i mean) so when ever you see a womens body and star to think of her that way remember that if you truly respect her you wouldn't make her body a mean to this filthy end.
    what do you think of this?

    Agreed with this. You need to look at women like they're people, not objects.
    I know, easier said than done, but you'll need to for the long run :)

    Well It's not like I look at them as just sexual objects, it's just that I admire the female body a little too much. You know what I am saying? I just want to, tone it down. Because I treat women with respect, I raised by women.

    i understand that.. it's a psychological method that's all :that if you magnify the wrong act it'll be easier to avoid but if you reduce it it'll be more difficult to avoid ..i wanted to help you by magnifying it regardless of it's actual size..does that make any sense ?
    all the best

    1. The female body
    2. The female voice
    3. The female attention
    4. The female acceptance


    That's all I have for now, but in short; the females.

    Consider picking up meditating! Google Take 10 - Headspace, and find somewhere to download it ;)

    For me iit's being alone at night. It's even more triggering than the look of an attractive woman on the street.

    That's why part of my reboot includes making sure I can fall asleep pretty quick. If I'm not able to fall asleep for too long thoughts of past addiction start crossing my mind...

    But they say that once you realise you have certain triggers you demystify them and they are becoming wider weaker :)

    None of your damn business!

    Just kidding... seriously though.. fuck triggers. Run from them. Don't think about them. List them, but then leave them in the rear view. They are the most dangerous things to us recovering addicts.

    Female body shape
    Female's hygiene
    Female looks
    Female buttocks
    Female's personality (If she's hot, but her personality is awful, it will disgust me)
    Certain high-quality perfumes
    How Females move that are very lady-like
    Sound of female's voice, especially if it is seductive.

    The trigger is more powerful if she has no kids.

    Boredom. Stress. Anxiety. Hangovers. Sad thoughts and feelings. Being upset. Feeling lonely. Pics on facebook.
    Feelings of shame from porn and fantasy addiction (yes it's weird, but thinking about how I fucked up, makes me want to fuck up even more)
    I could make the list longer, but those are my main triggers..
