    I'm sick of fighting this porn addiction and slipping back to my habit. I cannot pass a day without looking at porn and I have to reset my counter everytime. I did a post aiming to find serious accountability partners but not many people reply and found my post. I feel like its getting to I point where I keep fighting but everytime I fight back I give in because of different mental triggers and visual stimuli that is kept in my brain and my mind is always having a hard time controlling what I do because everytime I view porn it weakens my willpower and discipline to quit because of mental thoughts. I don't know what to do anymore I just feel like even though we have the tools alot of us easily slip back because we are not fully committed 100 percent and in control of our own choices, we're not determined enough to make NoFap a part of our lives and really value what this initiative can do to support all of us. It's time to appreciate the purpose of NoFap and what it can do that can benefit us. I'm coming for you April

    You need to ask yourself why you are viewing porn in the first place. Why do you need a constant surge of dopamine in your life? Is it a coping mechanism for unfortunate events in your life? When you have free time on your hand, are you bored and/or worried about spending that time?

    In order to defeat this Beast one needs to restructure their entire life, and this is no easy task. One of the best tools that I have used, and I have talked a lot about it on this forum, is prayer. We humans are mortal and only have so much time left on this Earth before we die. Chasing after frivolous vices, like masturbation, that do not enrich ourselves or the people around us will only make our life shorter over time. What I'm getting at is you need to meditate on this questions:

    "What is my purpose in life?"

    "If I were to die today, would I be able to say that I have lived life to the fullest?"

    Once you can answer this question, you will be able to take the time that you use to spend on masturbation towards nurturing meaningful pursuits in life. Every day we live is a miracle and one more chance for us to do something extraordinary.

    I'm cheering for you, brother! You can beat this!

    I agree with what Rex is saying after I realized that I have a huge PMO problem 2 days ago I decided to join Nofap to keep track of how long I can stop and try to rehabilitate myself I also realized that I masturbate to kill time, relieve stress, and get away from being social. So far I'm finding new things to do more often to fill in the gap that Porn made in my life: I started reading a bit more, focusing on drawing, and working out more.

    I think the best thing for you to do is to resist porn by reading, using that energy into something else like working out, picking up a new skill that can fill in the time and focus, or hanging out with friends. I believe anyone including you can stop Masturbation the question is how much you believe in yourself.
