Does the urge go away as days and weeks pass?

Yes. The first 3ish days are really hard but ease up around day 7. Then the 2 week crest is the hardest point I think. You hit this headspace of “I’m doing great, a little won’t hurt” and you gotta knuckle through it. I’m approaching 3 weeks and it’s now getting to the point where I don’t want to at all. I start to really see the derealization in porn. I thought back to a favorite video of mine and the pure animal mentality of it just doesn’t appeal anymore. I want love. And sure that love can be a little kinky when the mood strikes but the mechanical act of sex FOR the mechanical act of sex has started losing its meaning and I’m so grateful for that. It’ll pass brother. It just hurts the WHOLE TIME.

I’m only on day 9 but I can tell you that the urges come and go. As long as you stay distracted and do things to better yourself when the urges come, you’ll make it without problem
