A take on porn-less masturbation

Day 14

Today makes 2 weeks clean. I feel great, and I haven't had many urges after around 5 days. But I have been desiring sex more (more generally horny, not porn horny). So this morning I decided to masturbate without porn. I had tried this 2 weeks ago, but I had pornographic images in my mind, and I felt the same way about it as when I watch porn, so l reset the counter. This time, I felt it would be different because someone suggested focusing on the feeling of it more than any images in your head. I gave it a try. It was incredible, it felt so much more organic and clean. It was me with myself. My mind was completely blank, and I sure didn't think l'd ever be able to do that with a blank mind. I felt no shame when I was done. I only felt empowered. No one was objectified, nothing was glamorized, and I feel I felt the benefits of masturbation without the debilitating negatives of porn. Something to think about I guess!

Was it worth it?

Be very careful about this. Before the 3-4 months is up, your brain still connects porn and masturbation. So it may be isolated this time but like you said before, the porn will come to mind, then the urges will follow. I agree you can train yourself to masturbate without porn, but I think 2 weeks may be too early

I often wonder about this fair play to you I have stopped the porn but have found my self masturbating to the feeling instead of the phone, like what your saying I don’t feel guilt but is that all crated to make you stop it all together or just porn.
