Several attempts in, I'm coming here to quit porn permanently

    Hi everyone,

    I've been using porn most of my mature life. Lately, I've made a lot of improvements in my diet and relationships, largely with the help of meditation.

    I've tried to cut out porn lately, but not in a structured way. I'm hoping making an account here and making a promise to the Internet can help that. I'm done with porn!

    Okay, so what's next I guess? I'm a few days in now and I noticed I get more work done during my workday (I work from home). I also have more time for the gym and other hobbies. It's great so far!

    Good job posting on here. I think it helps you to stay more aware and accountable.
    And nice that you found so much help by doing meditation. I am also a really big fan of it. It creates a nice separation between thoughts and you as the observer of the thoughts. It will be especially of benefit when you progress into a longer nofap streak and all kinds of (maybe suppressed) emotions come up. The wim hof deep breathing method is also something i could recommend to really clear your head. But maybe you already know it. :)

    For me nofap is definitely the most difficult addiction to beat. I stopped with smoking a number of years ago and recently alcohol. But this one is really tough, because of the ease with which you can get it and the decades of hardwiring it created in your brain. It's like porn created a grand canyon overtime and now you have to create tiny sidestreams by doing nofap in combination with better habits.

    Looking forward to see your progress reports!
