I haven't jerked off to porn in 186 days. I continue to briefly glance at porn at least once a week.

Let me tell you something I've learned, if you would care to listen.

Porn, even just looking, destroys your ability to create long, fulfilling relationships, especially with women. The more I sit on my bed in the morning or at night and look at porn, the more my mind is twisted and warped with false realities of what a relationship is like. I feel like I am literally destroying my brain. I think every second I look at porn, I need to go another full day without it. Our brains have becomed wired to believe a whole bunch of shit about relationships that simply is not true.

^^That's just looking at porn.^^ Pleasuring ourselves by jerking off is worse. It degrades our brain further. It makes 10x the impact just watching it does.

Aren't you just fucking sick of it?
I fucking am. I want to get healed of this disease that plagues me and so so so many other people on this earth.

Just imagine what your brain off of porn and masturbation looks like.

Figure out where your priorities lie. What do you believe in to your core? Follow that. Do it one day at a time.

So today? Get shit done.

I beg you. Rid yourself of this disease, use this community, talk to a close friend, you will not regret it.

I totally had the same problem. I didn’t usually look at hardcore stuff after I quit M in 2014. But I would look for erotic movies, foreign films, etc, that would have nudity in them. I wasn’t M to it, but it still makes you obsess about sex. I couldn’t figure out what the draw was since I was just frustrating myself. It was still a rush just to see it. That’s all my counter is for. I’m there with you. No glancing!
 
You're right, I am fucking sick of it. I couldn't agree anymore. We have re wired our brains into a false and artificial world of sex, which causes us to be so dysfunctional in the real world. The worlds kind of twisted like that. The food we eat is artificial and fake. The behaviors and stories we watch on tv all day are fake. The chemicals we intake into our bodies everyday is fake.

Does anyone else not realize the world is in such disarray because we've completely detached ourselves from reality?

Stay strong brother

Very inspirational
 
Hey pornnomore18,

I noticed you also quoted 1. Corinthians. I know not everybody in this forum is Christain but I would really like to reccomend you to read in the bible. To me it seems that you are a man who is searching. I think is why you are still struggling so much and watch this stuff. I admire that you got that long streak even with making it harder for you.

You search to be free, but freedom is not a state of beeing empty. It's a state of beeing full. One can fill this with a lot of stuff. All good habits are helpful, but in the end, there must be something more. I pray for you man :)
 
When you don't watch porn altogether, you may still experience fantasies or give into some form of arousal. Quitting porn is only part of the solution. I personally do not advocate complete elimination of porn in the long run, but for the duration of the challenge any form of arousal should be avoided. What you want is to get back in control, which means that you have the ability to systematically feel and experience arousal without acting on it.

Porn messed up with my relationship and with my professional life. Real sex was my outlet but I kept wanting more and more of it to the point where intimacy was not there any more and my girlfriend was feeling that she could not engage in cuddling or massaging or anything because I would always make it escalate into sex. Porn is NOT reality. It's frustrating when you get turned down, especially by the girl you share your bed with. And it may happen whether you are addicted or not, because she cannot be horny all the time (unlike most people on this forum). Porn is the easy road... but is it worth it?
 
in the Mormon Faith, we punish ourselves physically, or sometimes the younger Mormons if we fail to meet our Obligation to the Lord of not watching ... p
 
Just thinking of the mental thoughts as I couldn't view P without M. No way, sorry for your struggle as this stuff is so easy to find
