    This is my first day on the site. With 23 years of PMO addiction and edging, I've learned to use sex/dating sites while watching porn because porn alone stopped working for me. I've created multiple fake profiles that I would use to start cybersex conversations. I just deleted those profiles/accounts. Now if I can only delete my hard drive that contains all of my porn movie collection.

    Just deleted my huge porn collection that took over a decade to collect. It was a little painful but well worth it!

    I kept hanging on to a preoccupation with two genital piercing that i finally got rid of. All P is gone. I use two computers now that have never been used for porn. Now a bit past 3 months hard mode

    Deleting my Tumblr apps on my devices and clearing the history on the browser I've been using for P surfing was the easy part. Took me a minute. But what about deleting all the pictures and video I've downloaded? That's thousands of pics and perhaps hundreds of clips, many Gbs of data. Suppose that would count as resetting, since I have to deliberately watch them as I delete them manually. Maybe I should wait? It will be awsome to stay away from them for 30 days without going to those parts of my hard drive/memory.

    LookinUp - AMAZING! I can understand deleting everything being a little painful. And, great job!

    Do you really need to watch them to delete manually? Can't you just delete the folder?
    Or, get a friend to do it for you. My recommendation - delete it, delete it all and delete it now!

    @SingerDrummer, I agree with @chris4nj. You can delete without watching. It's possible that selecting the files and seeing the titles of the movies may be a trigger, I don't know. But if you can delete the entire folder without opening it up, that might be easier. That way you wouldn't see thumbnails of the pics you are deleting also.

    Make your mind up... Either fish or cut bait. (Hint... You wanna fish eg... Delete all)

    Oh yeah... No need to go back to the barf and view it.

    Delete all or none, there is no middle ground.
