I cannot even imagine my life without porn.
I am on my day 7 rn, and before writing this I got this urge to watch it. It wasn't anything like heavy but only because of boredom my mind was king of telling me to do the only pleasurable thing I know about.
This got me thinking about how much deeply this addiction is embedded in me. Like in the times of boredom or after a stressful day when I want to enjoy or just chill, my definition of relaxing is so much altered that I know nothing outside of porn.
I've been dealing with this for like past 8 years, but never have I ever truly imagined what life would look like without it. 7 days is a lot for a person like me and every single day feels new, as if I am discovering something about me, it is not like bad days are completely gone but my tolerance to deal with them is exponentially increasing. I might not accept it but after contemplating I realised how much deep in my subconscious this habit is framed. It is like after a certain while, I started to accept that loop of watching porn and then later regretting it and then making a decision to never watch it only to relapse a few days later.
Uncertainty was the main factor behind all this because the only constant and familiar thing happening was porn and this loop of decision breaking. But I got be ready for life, to experience it, to live it because now I finally understand this rabbit hole, just because the hell is familiar does not mean I have to burn in it for eternity.
