    So what's the point if I will have the same cravings?
     
  4. I disagree with the premise that loss of PMO cravings would be tantamount to becoming asexual. To the contrary, it seems reasonable to conclude that the redirection (toward actual sexual engagement with other humans) of energies previously invested in PMO will make one a better lover, and sexual encounters will be that much more rewarding.

    that said, defeating those cravings is the trick, it’s damn hard, which is why we are all here

    Self-development, bonding with real people and enjoying sexuality in deeper, intimate way with your partner.

    You wont stop wanting sex.

    Real life happens only during porn-free days. Even if there are occasional relapses, during streaks the quality of life improves tremendously - better self-esteem, clearer mind and memory, more free-time) and many other benefits. I want to belive, that every person is able to give up porn for good, but even if it is not true, doing less harm is much better than constantly hurting myself and ultimately wasting my life.

    A Word Of Warning
    When you initially quit using Internet porn, the sensitised pathways will temporarily grow stronger and more sensitive to addiction cues and triggers. Studies show these connections continue to strengthen for around seven days following your decision to quit Internet porn, and begin to fade within around four weeks into your abstinence.

    Why do sensitised pathways initially grow stronger when you try to quit Internet porn? This is because these pathways are designed by evolution to cause us to crave for natural rewards such as sex or food. If we give up on these natural rewards, we will die or fail to reproduce. An addiction to Internet porn hijacks this natural survival mechanism causing you to experience strong cravings when you attempt to give up Internet porn.

    Please note that rebooting is not a linear process where you continue to improve each day. Instead, you will experience good days and bad days in terms of your mood. Mood swings will continue for around seven months into your reboot.
