I’m a college student who has been addicted to porn for over 10 years, and painfully. It affects my mood, sleep, and relationships, and yet I’ve found it so hard to quit-relying on sheer willpower and unrealistic goals everytime. I’m at a crossroads though. I’m tired of this cycle. I just had spring break, and for the first time in years (although I did break it), I went about a week without ANY masturbation. Was incredibly proud of myself, and I was SO present while there. This is a level of peace that I so desperately want, and I know I can do it BECAUSE I’ve done it before!!! Starting my streak today, and gonna just take it one day at a time!
Be kind to yourself and don’t do it by yourself. Also you need to make changes to your environment to ensure less triggers and temptation. Make sure your phone is safe, thats where almost all of our triggers come from until we remove them.
