Just too difficult

Day 1

I started watching this shit in 2013. I discovered no fap around 2019. So I’ve been doing this for around 12 years, and been trying to give it up for around 6 years, almost half the time I’ve been addicted. I’ve had streaks as long as 50 days, but even during those, the urge just feels stronger and stronger, like it’ll never go away. So I’ve decided along with getting this app, it’s time for a different approach. Just quit porn. Wanking still allowed. I’ve always tried to quit them together which as you all know is extremely difficult. Then, once I go 90 days without porn, I will attempt 90 days of no wanking also. Hopefully weening off this way will give me a better chance. Being that I’m 24 and have been watching this for literally half my life, I can’t even imagine how different my brain will be without it. But I intend to find out!

I know it’s not ideal, but I’m willing to try anything so make progress. My long term goal is still to quit masterbaition also. But currently just not able to do that

Sorry if that’s harsh but it’s the truth. I’ve tried the same thing in the past and still feel like crap after I’ve done it. It causes me to isolate and not be real with my closest friends because I am ashamed of masturbating again.

If you goal is to quit watching porn, that’s a start. But what are you going to do when you want to masturbate but can’t get hard? I’m gone something?? The thoughts you will have thinking about other women will have just as bad of an effect on your brain as watching porn. Doesn’t sound like you actually want to change, just sound like you want to find a different way to get the same result.
