    How many times have you caught yourself saying that," This will be the last time I'll watch it. Just a 2 minute clip and this will all end after that".
    But does it ?

    With one hit, You want another. It rains down hail from there.
    The issue here is that When you try to resist it, It doesn't work out.
    Resisting is another name for something which you will give in someday. In my view, Resisting something is just putting it offsite till' You get so desperate to find an outlet for all those Emotional burden.

    Do NOT Resist it.
    Remove it completely.

    When you catch yourself wanting for some of P, Don't Fight within yourself on whats right. Instead, Take a step back. Think about what are you doing and why. Focus on entirely different topic till the Boner/Urge passes.
    This will deprive you of some dopamine because you arn't paying heed to your brain's immediate need but this works magically.

    I wanted to share this with you all, Hope this gets attention so we can improve on this.
    Also I would recommend everyone watching TEDx The Great Porn Experiment.

    Rise.

    Better yet, control it. Put it into a cage and use it when the time is righto_O

    This is correct. You shouldn't try to resist it. You should try to command it. It's your feeling, your habit, your brain. You need to remember how to command your brain. If I get seductive pictures in my brain, I just remove them and put the beast back in the cage. It's simple as that. If you have illusions about porn or anything, the beast will use it to escape. Destroy the illusions and cage the beast. It works:cool:

    Isn't controlling the same as resisting ?

    It isn't. Resisting implies that you fight against something and try to get a way from something, controlling implies that you're trying to have influence over something.

    I think controlling is preferable, since sexual functions are normal for people. Resisting them just leads to monkish behaviour and fear of using sexual functions (because one can only resist, not control). It's a big difference actually.
