Dealing with the urges

Day 6

I’ve been addicted since I was 12 to porn. I’m now 21 and trying to build a career. I need to quit. I’m so motivated to quit. But I sit here doing school work and a random sexual thought will pop up in my head and I can’t get it to go away. Unless I dull my brain out with other non explicit content like a movie then I cannot focus on my work. It’s really becoming too time consuming not being able to focus when I get these urges. Does anyone have any advice on how to quickly move past these urges and refocus on the work in front of me?

Been dealing with the same thing today. I had to just leave my house because of that to be honest.
