I’ve been getting urges lately and it’s getting up to me, everyday I tell myself that I will quit, the following days I relapse of the urges, and those urges don’t just go away, they stay the next day which causes me to relapse My question, does anyone know what helps best to handle those urges?

Keeping busy, having tasks to get on with. But most of the time, just sheer will power to be better. If you decide to quit porn one day and you never relapse, then you weren’t addicted in the first place. Urges are a natural part of recovery, they are not easy and from time to time we give in, but you just got to get back on the horse and keep going.
