Its worst than drugs.
I cannot control my self, i have done it 9 times this week, every time i get the urge my brain refuses to do anything else than relapse

Things that you already know… The more you think on it the more you’ll think about it…cancel those thoughts by doing something drastic. Scream. Bolt into a sprint. Something. When those temptations come, chemicals in your brain are already flowing and making connections that will absolutely lead you to relapse. So, drastic times call for drastic measures. You’ve got to shock your body in some sort of way to run those chemical chemicals off the road so to speak. Does this make sense?
Cold showers help and also you have to rearrange your environment. Make yourself uncomfortable so you create a barrier between you and the habit. For example, if you live with someone keep your door open because it’ll make it more difficult to give into temptation. Put a content filter on your phone so if you watch porn you have to go through extra steps to access it giving you opportunity to turn around or choose a different activity. Most importantly you have to choose something to replace the habit. You probably do it routinely so create a disruption. Go to the gym, meditate, run, anything else thatll release dopamine because you still need your fix. Good luck and godspeed my friend.
