I recently managed to change password to my internet filter to one that i forgot. Thus totally blocking myself from porn and dating sites. Oh and web advertisements. I had urges since then. Thanks to blocking it out im no longer able to succumb to those urges of porn. Thou I still fap. But this time it is not as destructive as with porn. It even feels different. My current approach is to deal with one problem at a time. Living for a while without porn, and then quitting fapping. Is this wise or should I try quitting both at once?
The best way to deal with a problem is to eliminate it for once and all. This works for me everytime. You can do it, yes you can! The question is are you willing to put some effort in it? Masturbation will lead you to fantasies, and this will bring you to searching after girls/women, which leads to porn. Cut it at the roots! Don't be delusional. This is my opinion. See if it helps, otherwise throw it in the trash!
If you can do it more power to you. I've quit both M and P at different times in my life. I thought I was only addicted to one and the other was just contributing fuel. Turns out when I watched porn and tried to stop M I could not. And when I only M and tried to avoid porn I always shamefully went back. I had to stop both or stop neither there was no other choice for me. Best of luck. You are stronger than you currently believe!
Quit them both! You might not be masturbating with porn but the images you create in your head when you are fapping off is basically the same as watching porn. So really nothing has changed other than you finding a different technique for you to arouse yourself while you fap.
I would agree with @DemonSemen @superninjared . that you should quit both. Although, I will say you should pick your battles. Cutting out P completely is a good first step. I did the same on my reboot and only used M once after a few days of giving up P, been clean since. I think naturally the other follows, just don’t replace P with a psub and you will do alright. Hopefully for you stopping M follows like it did me. Challenge yourself to stopping Ming to fantasy, or conjured P imagery, and it should become pretty pointless.
Quit both. There are literally no benefits that come from banging your hand, (or hands if you use both left and right) lol.
