The ego doesn't like the way you're depriving yourself of all those internet babes and your self-pleasure. Meanwhile, the soul loves what you're doing by trying to beat the addiction! You have to thrust yourself into reality: real people, real situations, commitments, duties, and challenges. Someday, you will laugh at all the time and energy you had spent fapping to pixel people...shadows, illusions. Separate fantasy from reality and then dismiss fantasy. So how would it be then? Will you then cry and fret to remain in the little box or cage of fantasy fap-land? No. We've all been suckered into that trap for too long. Sound reasoning, affirmations, revelations shall cement your willpower into never relapsing again. Of course, the brain chemistry you can't ignore, the dopamine fix and so on. So the trials of withdrawal have to be dealt with until the worst of it passes. Allow yourself some slack. Set yourself up a safety net so that if you have to see some erotica because you can't stand the withdrawal symptoms, then let that favorite image represent all the best erotica you've ever seen, see her as a soul wave of Divinity, and don't jerk off, of course! Then let the image go, and you may never have to do that again.
