Wherever I get urges I don't even think. It's like once I get the thought, I'll eventually find myself replasing. It's like I don't even think when I do it. Is there like something mentally wrong with me? It feels so impossible to quit. Like I don't even feel like trying anymore.

Henry, don’t worry brother you can and will start to take back control of your mind by leaving this poison behind. The science of it is our prefrontal cortex (which controls rational decision making) is shrunken due to repeated porn use and your brain has to keep cutting down dopamine receptors each you turn back to it because it’s such a strong, dopamine- producing stimulus. So you aren’t crazy for realizing you go on autopilot when you relapse, it’s because it’s the way your brain has been trained to be from porn use.
