Learning about Porn Addiction

I have been reading about porn addiction on this site and on something called reboot nation and in the booklet I downloaded from this site and I was also watching a TED talk episode about internet porn. It is all so uncomfortably on the mark. Being that I am old enough to have started on Playboy and not high speed internet there seems to be no PIED, but that is about the only silver lining. The truth is that PMO, as well as addiction to regular sex (if there is a difference between the two), has cost me love, friendships, family, work, life-purpose, almost everything that made life worth living. For more than a decade I have been increasingly aware that this is an addiction that is robbing me of my life. So, I have 'quit' more times than I can count. And yet... here I am again, trying to quit again... I have 7 days of recovery now... and not much else. Everything else is left behind in the wreckage of my past.

I suppose I am grateful for finding this website. At least I can speak honestly about this problem here. And what I have to say is: I have to get it this time. I have to get sober this time. There is not much left for me to work with in terms of resources or good will or patience or sand in the hourglass.
 
Welcome! You can see "0 days" but don't believe. I came here with TED Talks too (in November 2018). I didn't masturbation 21 days (3-4 times) and I didn't watch porn 46 days (just 1 time). Don't give up. We can do this. Just we aren't believe ourselves. This is very easy, don't use your hand :D .
 
Mike, you are a hero. To understand thats this is a problem, accept whats done and not give up after many years its just unbelivable, i hope you will beat this addiction soon and want to thank you for the power your post gave me.
