I’m assuming this isn’t relatable for many, but still hear me out, as I need advice from the QUITTR community here. So I’ve found that I’ll start to build up a bit of a streak. When I want to relapse, sometimes instead of actually relapsing, I cope by adding a ridiculous amount of girls on Snapchat, hoping they’ll add me back and I’ll have people to talk to. The issue here is that it leads to me saying some sexually motivated stuff that I shouldn’t be saying, and ultimately leads to a relapse. Now I know you guys are going to tell me to just delete it, but I can’t as it’s a pivotal form of communication for me that I need to stay involved with my friends. So how do I fix this issue?

Stop looking for work arounds. Plan and simple. You are self aware to know this an issue that leads to relapse. So fight the urge when you get it. I know it’s easier said than done but eliminate any and all roads that can lead to relapse

If snap is such a big issue and you find hourly relapsing. There are multiple other ways yoh can contact your friends like iMessage, what’s app etc. don’t make that as an excuse if you really want to change. Mental will alone isn’t enough you have to nullify all form of distractions. Sometimes I still also look at some provocative things on instagram but it doesn’t turn me on anymore but I keep it at a moderation because leaving it completely will more likely make me relapse. Just like everything it’s a gradual process you can’t shut it off all at once you have to keep cutting yourself off bit by bit. So I will advise you to go outside and talk to women in real life and cut down on the social media way because it will only fuel what you have been avoiding so far. Hope this helps. Also take up a new hobby , I recently took up journaling - I read Bible verse in the morning and then journal down by thoughts and how I can improve myself, it helps me stay focused and distracted as I have replaced porn with something else I am on a 17 days streak, my longest was 2 week I’m aiming for 30 days I know I can do it and I will as I am less and less aroused by those type of content and I feel proud of myself. We are all in this together so stay steady my brother. God bless you.
