I’m tired of the cycle

Day 0

I just lost a 5 day streak which I haven’t been able to do in a little while, since then I’ve relapsed 3 times in 2 days. I’m just so tired of the constant temptation, the moments when I wake up in the middle of the night and the thoughts just whisper at me nonstop. Or the moments when work is slow and I try to justify watching porn. I’ve dealt with this issue since I was 8 and now I’m 25. It’s become such a part of me that I’ve never known life without it. I need help and support. How do I focus on beating the addiction without focusing on the days? Any advice welcom

It sounds like you were exposed to this addiction very early on in life, I would suggest finding a therapist with experience in porn addiction to help you address the root causes of these thoughts and where they come from. Therapy has been a huge help for me along my journey so I would recommend looking into it if you can.

Focus on forming good habits and you won’t have time for the bad habits. Don’t constantly check your streak count. Stay active, set goals and achieve them and you won’t have time for porn. Socialize more and live a life as if porn didn’t exist. Then 30 days will fly by in no time.
