    Hello guys I know this might be our common problem, but I really want to share with you guys.
    I have been trying to quit for a years now and I cant find enought strenght. Sometimes I got away far, up to 2 months but others I just got to starting and stopping at the middle with regret. I am 19 years old now and I just wanted to erased everything that I watched. Somedays I just say, I am just going to watch once and then I quit for good.

    I need you guys to please advice me, I really wanted to scare myself out of it as I did with other addictions like smoking but I can't. It always seems harmless but it isnt and it caughts you when your down… after that I just feel guilty, I am not watching it more than twice a week but I cant enjoy it and I dont want to keep doing it. So how do I stop?

    If you guys want to just help me, to scare me out of it to see how harmfull it is (but not to traumatize me :)). I just want to make my deeper conscious understand that its not good even if it feels good in the moment the guilt of failing beats it all.

    Thanks for Reading it until here, and I hope I can help some of you to.

    Stop before you end up having PIED....if I'd known something like this existed I'd have stopped watching a long time back.

    So unfortunately, this isn't something that (in my opinion) someone can simply be "scared out of" as you put it. This is an absolute full-on addiction and to recover from it takes some seriously hard work and dedication. I go to a weekly SA meeting, I have a sponsor, two accountability partners, and a therapist. If there was something that could simply cure us, or scare me out of it, I'd definitely have done that already. I can't speak to any other addiction, but this one doesn't have anything like that.

  4. To be truly successful with givibg it up, that decision needs to cone from within. Id say theres only so much an outside factor could enforce for you.

    Start with above. Build onto that why you turn to pmo, and understand that root cause too. In my opinion its the only way to solve it, without understanding and addressing that all youre doing is puttibg a band aid over it.
