    I'm going to start tomorrow (June 19th) and I need a plan thats slow and easy and doesn't put so much pressure since quitting both porn and masturbating is very hard.

    As I'm quitting, deleting all my connections to porn. Could I still masturbate to pictures while quitting watching videos? And after overcoming the videos I can then work on the pictures. Lastly ending the entire thing all together.

    Do it piece by piece. Unfortunately for me porn is a stress reliever rather than any type/sort of drug legal or illegal.

    I do as much as I can with my hobbies to stop but its very very hard for me.

    Abstaining not only from porn but also from masturbation and maybe even from orgasm for a period of time is easier than just abstaining from porn and makes the reboot faster. M or O will cause the chaser effect, which can lead to a relapse.
    I think this article may be interesting for you: https://nofap.com/faq/porn-addiction-reduction-over-time/
    Then why do you want to stop?

    Id recommend not watching pictures or masturbating. It is way easier to justify PMO if you keep doing similar activities. God bless you.

    Don't ask for advice, nobody knows that better than you.
    I think you should just stop PMO-ing and try to get physical interaction with women.

    You can only search for advices how to handle urges during those days, but not how to quit porn. You should simply know the reasons why are you quitting.

    I think its a factor as to why I'm both so stressed and apathetic and I may get is an erectile dysfunction. Porn/Masturbating is an Alternative way of me to cope with the fact I can't leave my house, I can't interact with anyone physically, I can't get hired, all because I'm disabled. Walk outside my front door and for miles its fields of grass its like Dorothy's house in the Wizard of Oz or the house in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. And I haven't been in a relationship in 11+ years (graduating high school).

    In brief stopping it would improve my health and ease my stress and may motivate me to do things.
