Almost slipped after 95 days - yep, porn is still there

You can turn back to PMO any time you want. But if you do, it might turn out to be very hard to return to where you are now.

 

I have just reach 50 days. My mind is thinking to hit another 40 days until I hit the 90 mark.. I am also thinking the exact same thing.. I really don’t want this to happen to me aswell...otherwise it’s a waste of time and energy...hopefully I can forget all these pmo.. and face real reality

 

Yep. No matter how much time passes, porn will still be there waiting. I think that's one of the big misconceptions about a reboot. A lot of people think that 90 days away from porn will fix their addiction, and then they can go back to 'casual' porn use. Not for an addict I'm afraid. For an addict it's either a life without porn, or a life as a porn addict. Like you said OP, there is no inbetween!

We underestimate just how addictive porn is. I've had alcohol issues in the past and was a smoker for for 18 years. I managed to get both of those things under control and to a point where I can do both causally (socially) now. However, I dare not even think about trying to have some casual relationship with porn - I know that leads straight back into the cesspit of addiction.

The problem is that there is no barrier to porn. Atleast with other things there are one if not two or three barriers, such as having to leave the house and find a shop, having to spend money, not being able to drive afterwards (with drink and drugs). But porn is so dam easy!! It's literally at your fingertips, it's completely free, and you can carry on with your day afterwards. What a perfect cocktail for addiction to form!

 

Porn is too accessible and that sucks.

 

Be very careful!!!! Great job on turning away from it, but that has happened to me before, and then the "taste" becomes a "need" to finish what I had started. Stay on NoFap.com as much as you need to to remind yourself of this!

 

I can totally relate to this, I almost slipped yesterday after 34 days of no masturbation. I took a look at a thread with triggering content, it wasn't necessarily pornography but with the way it would trigger me to masturbate it might as well be like porn in my case..
There really is no middle ground for looking at these things. My brain goes right into "acting out" mode if I start taking a look at triggers. Even after I decide to leave the site the urges continue for the rest of the day.
We have to learn how to live life without lust, there is no room for casually looking at anything that could stir up this lust. I would love to figure out how to get rid of all the lust. It feels normal now but I'm pretty sure its not normal to feel like that.
