I’ve been watching pornography or sexualized content now for nearly 8 years. For the longest time I didn’t find it to be concerning because it was a quick fix to feeling content for a moment. After doing heavy research, reading multiple pieces of literature and watching enough videos on the topic of how porn destroys your mental health and social life, I really want to be free of the anxiety it brings me. I’m truly open to any suggestions as to how you personally deal with the temptation to go back to it.
As someone who has been doing it for 4 years I agree with you bro. It brings hella anxiety when trying to talk to new people. The way I deal with the temptation when it comes is just do something that takes your mind off of it whether it being an activity or prayer just do something besides being on your phone during urges. Your phone/social medias is your worst enemy when trying to get through this.
