I’ve been hooked on pornography since I was a kid. The longest I’ve gone without masturbating to it is maybe like a week but now it’s almost every day. It’s killing my marriage but I just can’t get away from it. What do you guys do to help yourself when you get the urge?
Keeping busy and distracting yourself helps a lot in the beginning. I’m in the same boat brother. It’s affected my relationships and trust me when I say your woman notices. The unfortunate part is that she will start to think it’s her and not you having a porn addiction. Now is the time to dedicate yourself fully to discipline. It doesn’t get better until you make the decision to get better. Things I do when I get the urge: -Go for a walk around the block -Read 10 pages of a book -Go to the gym -Go for a drive Also, I recommend a life line. Someone that you are close with that you can open up with about your addiction and when urges get bad, CALL THEM. If they care about you, they will understand. And turn on the content blocker that the app offers, this has helped me multiple times already when I slip up and search something. Pisses me off in the moment but ultimately makes me feel better knowing I didn’t see anything that would trigger me to slip up. And speaking of triggers, clean out your instagram. Don’t follow onlyfans girls or anyone that shows their bodies because it will trigger you. If you have to, delete social media for a couple weeks. Trust the process brother, best of luck.
