I was introduced to the use of pornography at a very young age and have battled this addiction throughout my years as a teenager. I’ve downloaded numerous apps that work as a tracker and have never seen any results. For anyone who has quit because of this app could you reply just describing your experience?
I’m on my 93rd day of FREEDOM from porn…93 days after I got the QUITTR app. I am older (55), but I started young, first exposed to porn in 1977 or 78, when I was 8. From that day on, until this February (when I downloaded QUITTR), I’ve been on an insatiable quest for more and better porn. When I was 12, in 1982, my best friend raped me—I freaked out, had his mom come pick him up and take him home early. My new best friend introduced me to stealing my dad’s porn magazines. I did, by the dozens. One of them taught me how to masturbate in a story. It was a rough year for me, 7th grade. I was grounded all but 7 days of the year—my hair turned half gray that year. But I had LOTS of porn, and lots of free time to myself, and a fun new pastime that made me feel good. I was hooked. When I was 16, after ramming my Chevette head on into a 3/5 ton pickup (no seat belt) and somehow coming out barely injured, I started really seeking God. I stopped porn and burned all of my dad’s magazines that I still had (sorry, Pop). I was porn-free for 10 years, but fapped (masturbated) at every opportunity—even if I had to make opportunities. And when I did, I kept the porn mindset—I thought about the porn kind of things. I looked at people lustfully, to see bodies that turned me on that I could enjoy at the time (I was always aroused, i was used to hiding a bulge) and really enjoy alone later. In 1995, when I got to my submarine in the Navy, my chief (direct supervisor) had it out for me…always cruel to me, unfair in everything, and then began sexual assaults with his 3-D cell flashlight. Around that time, the internet brought porn to computers cheaply and privately. 10 years of no porn out the window as I spend all nighters exploring what the internet could deliver, trying to deal with the abuse I was getting on the boat. I tried to quit many times since. Never worked for more than a little while…except when I had to take over pastoring out church when our pastor was dying from brain cancer…I was good and clean for a couple of years then. The pastor’s widow took over and I felt free to go right back to PMO. QUITTR was recommended by DripKing, a Christian lacrosse player for Liberty University that I follow. He recommended it one day out of the blue with a simple message: You will see this when the time is right for you. You need to stop the porn…….I recommend the QUITTR app. It’s what I used. Use my code “Caleb”. I went to the App Store right away. It cost $19.99 with his code. I had $20.49 in the bank. On the first day, exploring the app, I knew I had found the thing that would finally get me to FREEDOM from porn. I explored all of the app, read all the articles, watched a lot of the videos, used all the tools (not all at once—a little at a time). Got into the chats—the Group Chat is a MUST!). I REALLY got help from the “Talk to Melius” AI therapy tool. I talked to it about every bit of sexual abuse, rape, assault that I could remember…and more came up that I had forgotten about. It gave me some good advice, and it told me to talk to a professional therapist a lot as well. But typing it out with Melius got me to where I could open up to my wife and my therapists and psychiatrists about this stuff—something I had never done to another human in my life. This addiction had dominated my life all of my life…almost 50 of my 55 years! I knew no other way of living except shame, self-loathing, horrible things. But as I gained my FREEDOM, I’ve learned to forgive myself and give myself permission to live life and strive for better for the FIRST TIME EVER. Sorry this is long, but my life is complicated. QUITTR is well thought-out and capable of helping complicated people…and great for helping people who are awesome, and just need help kicking a recently acquired porn addiction as well. Either way, you won’t go through the process alone! There’s a community that rallies behind you and supports you along the way as we all go through this with you in the group chat. Welcome to your journey to FREEDOM! You are so very worth your FREEDOM, and you are really going to love it!
