    I have this problem where my urges get stuck at the tip of my dick.

    Once its there, its so hard to go back ( Its like a ballon that's ready to explode)

    I know the usual tricks: Take a shower, go for a run, push ups, meditation.

    Everyone here has had urges, but how are yours? Are you like me? What works for you?

  2. Good question! I don't know how we can really gauge how bad these urges are. It's a subjective, personal thing, right? To me, you sound really normal and you already know how to deal with it.
    Obviously, looking at any kind of porn or porn sub - just typing the name of a fetish into a search engine - that's the part we have to work hardest at freeing ourselves from. I can only speak for myself, but once I even look at stuff for a few minutes, I might as well just fap right then and there. It's over. Sometimes, against my will and ideals, look at some shit for a few minutes. I close off the computer. But my dick is ready to be satisfied. So I end up fapping anyway, in the washroom or in my bedroom. And I never feel like it was worth it.
    Anyway, just hang in there and stay true to yourself.

    The same thing just happenned to me. I was watching an action movie with my cousin and It had one sexual scene very graphic ( Some stupid B-movie, they have shitty plot, so they had sex scenes to compensate).

    I regret not leaving the room, I guess we learn from our mistakes, don't we?

    Anyway, the sexual scene got stuck in my head and the day after it got worse, because I had other clips in my head popping up from all the porn I watched over the years(Urges got more strong) . I did the usual, I even went for a long hour walk, some push ups, some sprinting on my stationnary bike, meditation.

    I eventually come up with the idea of ''un-loading'' only starring at my wall, because the urge was just un-tolerable ( I was at 27 days) .

    Unfortunately, while jerking-off , images popped-up in my mind. It reminded me of porn.

    After the act, things didn't go better. I now have this chaser effect going crazy on me.

    Thank you for reading.

    Like Mark Whippet on the Universal Man says, when you get an urge at the tip of your dick, just meditate and imagine an orgasm. This mental thought allows you to process the urge without going to porn. So if it feels like a balloon? Just imagine that feeling of orgasm. That’s how you healthily absorb sexual energy.

  7. Some guys might totally disagree with me, but if & when I feel like I want to masturbate, I try to do the following:
    Do it in my own bed. At night. I figure what I do in my bed is my own business.
    Feel like I own it. It's my decision. If it's because I watched porn earlier that day, that's not my idea of doing it from my own free will.
    I will still have porn images in my mind when I do this. However, I will also fantasize about women I know. Whatever.
    One thing I do know: The orgasm from this is way more powerful than from doing it while watching porn.
    Again, I know this kind of thinking will not satisfy everyone, but I do not believe in totally abstaining from masturbation. However, if you do this and still feel lousy, it may not be for you.
    I still think it's better than driving yourself crazy with porn.
    It's okay if people don't agree. I understand.

    That reminds me of what I read in the book from Gary Wilson ( Your brain on porn ):

    ''Keep in mind that brains, histories and circumstances vary. There is no magic bullet that works well for everyone. Pick and choose the tips that might serve you in retraining your brain. Do not get caught up in, ‘am I doing this right?’ It is you who decides the length and parameters of your reboot, depending on your goals and current situation''.

    TBH I think at that point it's largely about luck. It's kind of like asking if a prostitute who might have venereal disease is offering you a freebie how do you resist the temptation, or any scenario where something is really tempting - the best thing is to avoid that scenario in the first place. We can do things to avoid the situation but also on another level to avoid going down the slippery slope mentally. I don't think most people are really doing that much to train their mind, they are mostly just focused on abstinence. The thing that most comes to mind is learning about the negative effects of porn not just on consumers but even people in the industry. Unless someone blames the actors instead of the big business interests behind it and/or has no conscience in general it's gotta bother you enough where it deters you from viewing porn.

    Instead of a mechanical trick in the moment you'll have other thoughts haunting your mind, except this is anti-porn thoughts instead of pro-porn thoughts.
     

  13. For me willpower works most the time but I know it isn’t wise to always rely on that. Call someone if the urges get too strong. A family member or a friend preferably.

    The big companies are only one subset of porn though and a declining one at that. Nowadays people have their own platform to sell their own porn and profit off people that way, so in this instance who am I supposed to feel bad for? This is like suggesting we feel bad for the drug dealer rather than the addict.

    It's not about 'feeling bad for' whoever, it's recognizing the big clustermindfuck that it is.
     
  16. I try to disregard the urge in my head and try to avert the sensation away from my penis, into my muscles or feet and I feel the ground under me or soft blankets on my bed. Tell yourself in your head that "I'm vulnerable right now and I need to stay away from even clothed sexy women in the media" If you are vulnerable, you will act out so try to distract yourself. Try jumping Jacks or watching self improvement videos to avert your attention from your sexual drive
