I can't control my thoughts or actions while watching.

Discussion in 'Porn Addiction' started by Deleted Account, Sep 18, 2021.

  1. Hello,I hope you're all staying strong.
    My problem with watching porn is that my brain just gets paralyzed...I forget everything I've written or told myself about why I want to stop porn...I try to ahut my phone but it's usually too late.
    I wrote over 10 reasons why I want to stop and when I got the urges I just couldn't stop to checkout what I'd written or even think about what I'm doing.
    Does anyone have the same problem ? And do you know how I can practice putting myself away when I say so ? I feel it's more if a self-control problem than a commitment problem.

    Maybe put something in between you and porn so you have a second to think before you act

    Yeah, man. I feel that. It's the strangest thing. YOU KNOW you want to quit this shit, but this urge you feel just shuts down the part of your brain that is responsible for control. It's absolutely insane.

  4. yeah exactly. You know what you have to do but you just can't do it.
    After yesterday's relapse I decided to install a mobile app blocker that would stop me from using my phone through a certain period of time that's all night for me till around 9 in the morning.
    Hopefully this would work but still I need a way to be stronger and more in control because it's possible to fall for urges at anytime...we need to learn how to snap out of it.
