hey I'm new on here, It seems like a great resource for helping to quit porn. About two months ago I had a good streak going of just masterbating to with the same one porn. I did this for a couple months and I seemed to be able to better move forward with my life in most regards. I'm wondering if people really think the best way to quit is to completely masterbating all together to move forward or just give up all the porn. I feel like the porn and need to constantly find new content is really what the addiction is. It may be different from one person to another. Let me know what you think anyone thanks
Why do you need any porn at all? I'd say the normal way would be fantasizing without it, or based on real life like a girl you like at least.
Hi Casey54, Welcome to the forum. I think you are asking whether it is better to go hard mode (no porn or masturbation) or just give up porn. I think it differs from person to person, I chose to go hard mode. It hasn't been easy and I have M'd (masturbated) three times in the last couple of months. Only you really know you and if M alone will cause you to be drawn to watching P (porn). I does for me so that's why I went hard mode but for some its different. You just need to find your own way. Why don't you consider writing a journal in the 30-39 section. You can then track yourself and reflect back on previous posts. Good luck. G
Hey Gautama, thanks for the advice, I'll start a journal to track my progress and see how things go. Today will be day 2 of a reboot of sorts, I'll try going hard mode.
