Hello everyone, 23 male. I've been watching porn from an early age but the last few years I've really wanted to get rid of the bad habits. When I go on a streak I feel absolutely amazing but I always slip up, the last few months I've struggled to make it past 3 days, so I've implemented blockers - but I find a way to circumvent them. The question is what can I actually do/try next?
Hi @lukegreeny Self-awareness. Become more aware, think about what makes you do it in the moment.. are you stressed, lonely, angry, sad or just horny? Feel it wholly & find a way to accept it.. this is partly how we get to know ourselves & mature more deeply / truly. Sure, blockers, going for a run, a nap, or partaking in another interest or passion will help but at some point we all have to come back to our emotions & mental state. You could try to meditate or another good thing is to write out your reasons for quitting, your ‘why’. Think about & write down your goals in life, who you want to be, what you want to achieve & how to do it etc. Just got to keep yourself motivated & learning, which you are by posting here asking this, so well done.. all the best on your journey!
