Finally hit a weak and man am im struggling. I went out with my wife and 2 month old son and couldnt control myself from looking at women. I still struggle with looking at women online and in real life. Its like i have no shame in looking at this point. i hate it, i hate my weakness, i hate this. i almost relapsed today too btw… so yeah theres that. Didnt though!
Congrats on reaching seven days. This is a great achievement, however, do not feel ashamed as it will increase your urge to watch pornography. Instead, try to acknowledge the futility of looking at other women. It’s like a hungry person looking at a delicious meal that he can’t eat- it only increases his hunger. Similarly looking at other women doesn’t satisfy-it only increases sexual desire. I’d also recommend reading the easy peasy way to quit porn by Allen carr on the internet or listening to the audiobook on YouTube. It’s the best method out there on quitting this addiction and will change your mindset completely on how you view porn. All the best and stay strong!
