masturbating without porn

[Jshah3124]

I have been a PMO addict since 2-3 years. I used to watch porn everyday and masturbate at least twice a day.
I decided to quit porn last month and successfully I haven't watched porn since then and now I don't also feel like watching it but however I haven't been able to stop myself from masturbating. I only masturbate once a week now which is much less then before. I am trying to decrease the frequency step by step first it was one week now it will be two week and so on...I have already gained control over myself and I can resist the urges for masturbating for more than a week but I am not able to do that because whenever it has been week without masturbating I have this weird dreams in which I am watching porn and then nightfall happens and I wake up. The Next day I masturbate and then no longer I get this dreams or nightfall for a week but as soon as it has been few days without masturbation whole it again repeats.
What should I do about this ? Is the way I plan to overcome masturbation right ? Should I keep doing this ? Is masturbating like this without porn okay ? am I actually free from addiction?

Depends of your objectives. What are they ?

but I wouldn’t recommend mo because as you said your dream make you dream of porn, which mean your brain still « sick » imo.
Maybe right now you have control but what happen if you lose it ? MO will lead to porn 100%.

I’m not saying that MO without P is bad, it’s better than PMO

It's good that you have discovered this issue only 3 years in. Well done for not using porn in so long, just keep that up no matter what, it's the most important factor. Masturbation, in my eyes, is fine in moderation, but yeah, I too would like to stop doing that. One day. Stay porn free.
