Started looking at porn without the intention to masturbate

So Ive come to this point where I don’t technically want to break my streak by masturbating to porn but now I’m just looking at it for no apparent reason. Im trying to rewire my brain so I don’t keep going that route but has this happened to anyone else? Staying busy definitely helps but I work from home (M-F) and not sure how to get over this.

You should probably be doing the opposite if you have that goal of “rewiring”. Masturbating without porn

I work from home as well and I know what you mean, it’s hard having all this time to yourself. What works for me is to have something going on in the background so when my attention does start to drift, I can control where it goes. For example, sometimes I work with my laptop infront of the tv, so occasionally when I look up or need a break, my mind is occupied in a show. Just be sure it’s as clean of a shoe as possible, I’ve made the mistake of one having sexual jokes play often and that has triggered a relapse

Gotta be honest with yourself…if you’re looking at porn you are not trying to rewire your brain. Have a hard conversation and hold yourself accountable. What’s the point of just watching it? Boredom? Replace it with things that are good for your brain and body
