I really want to stop but feel incapable of doing so

Porn has FUCKED my life. I started watching porn daily when I was about 12. I’d watch it multiple times a day up until recently. My relationship with my wife as well as my friends and siblings has been extremely distant. Porn has led me to do some very stupid things and I just want it to stop. But every time I want to stop I feel utterly incapable of doing so. It’s dug its claws in deep into me and won’t let go. It feels so hopeless sometimes.

Hey man I’ve been there. Don’t give into those thoughts that are telling you you’ll always be like this. Surrender your life to Christ he can break the chains of addiction and bring you out of the darkness you’re currently in.

Just keep strong and know that you can push through is my best advice. I find personally for me that quitting porn hasn’t been that hard, I find it only hard when I think about watching porn, so I find ways to not think about it and be distracted. Also a quote I feel like can help you “One more time is going to be many more times
