8 weeks of no porn completed

You need to focus in another activities. Maybe doing a lot of exercice will remove your energy and your desire to masturbate. If you have a hobby, it is very useful in order to forget PMO. Make a cominment to avoid PMO for at least one week, at the begining it is very difficult. But if you are away for a long period it will be easier.

For some people, writing a journal about the streak and setting up a day counter, are helpful for selfcontrol.

 

You’re using nudes to masterbate-that’s porn, or porn substitutes if you like. For an addict you need to stop sexual stimulation. You basically gave up hard core porn for a softer version.

 

So it’s great that you made it 8 weeks without masturbating to hardcore porn websites but paid for or not pictures of nude women are at best porn subs and really are soft core porn. But you are definitely headed in the right direction. Next step would be no artificial stimulation and the next step after that would be to stop the masturbating all together.

 

Exactly!!!

 

Exactly, it's like someone who wants to quit alcohol began drinking beer instead

 

You need to observe your habits, when do you masturbate, what triggers you to start, what time of day, how are you feeling before and after, etc. Identify your triggers and decide a strategy for dealing with them - take yourself out of that situation, or have something else that you enjoy to do instead.

If you have rl girls sending you nudes, maybe go on some dates etc? It's much more fun than sitting at home masturbating to pictures.
