    Perhaps I am not using the forum quite to its best use, but I am having a low response rate to my requests for input.
    Any ideas to have this change, should I be doing something different, please give me a clue(s)

    Sometimes it takes a little longer for some to gain attention, for whatever reason. Don't take it too personally ;)

    I'm not sure how you're using the forum, but how often do you post on other threads? How many threads do you post? How detailed/specific are you in your posts? My advice, simply, is to stay patient and keep putting yourself out there, regardless of how much attention you're getting.

    The thing is, you can't always completely rely on other people to get the help you need. It is good to have help from other people in moderation and when it is afforded to be giving to you at the time. You got to make your plan, and have a few tricks under your sleeve in case of any emergency happens.

    Turn off the computer temporarily and do something else when urges arises

    Stay busy doing something, get physical.

    Know that searching for porn is "neuro-association" and it releases dopamine when you search for porn before even viewing it. Which will have you craving for porn. Know that this is a waste of your time and energy being used up because you simply couldn't control yourself.

    Search up some Reddit forums about the positives of NoFap, and perhaps gain some wisdom about it.

    Beat through the withdrawals, and fix other things in your life. (If you can do it. Some things are harder to change than others. Not an excuse for PMO, as it is the center of your goal of what you need to fix)

    Thanks you all for responding. I use a talk therapist to keep me thinking straight plus I get on a telephone conference line once a week with a sex anon. group to go over step work. I have loaded up my Samsung note smartphone with an app called Secure Teen which blocks porn and you tube (yes they got some nasty stuff on there) So I'll stay more active, I do like face to face stuff better.
