    Hi fellas,

    New here, anyways I was wanting to ask does anyone here believe there's a healthy way to watch porn? Like one that doesnt inhibit normal sexual activity & maybe fight of PIED at the same time? Ive just had the toughest time getting completely off it so ive been trying to size it down, content wise, number of times I view it etc. Does anyone think theres a better way to conquer these sexual dysfunctions of mine, PIED? Let me know if anyone agrees or disagrees w/ these thoughts & please feel free to include your own thoughts. Id appreciate that.

    Hi, your point of view can be interesting. Personally, porn and masturbation ruined my life and i'm still trying to fix it where i can and make a new path were i can't. At this point i rather definitely quit porn for good and find better ways to use my time. In the end i masturbated so many times because i was bored, sad, lonely or afraid of something and i didn't even enjoyed it in the end, even if my brains is saying differently i won't miss it!

    I don't think that there are healthy ways to watch porn. Every relapse is a suffering for me. My highest streak was 1 week and I felt unstoppable until I ruined it and from Thanos I transformed into the weakest man alive. I'd say you should quit porn altogether. I'm just starting like you right now.
     
  4. As a porn addict for close to 30 years I have tried many things to quit over the years. I've tried this type of moderation approach and for me it did not work. I'd start and say I am going to watch porn once per day. For the first few days I would be okay and then maybe on the 4th day I would watch it twice, and say, Okay day 5 I don't watch porn, but I would and i would say okay day 6 I don't watch porn. Right around day 6 or 7 i would say screw it, let's watch a ton of porn and start over tomorrow. For me I don't think it worked because I was able to continue feeding my addiction and actually justify it too.

    Reducing the amount of porn did not work for me either. I would go 1 day fapping 1 day skipping and i'd repeat the cycle until one day i said nah actually I'm going to be doing it every day also multiple times.
