Stopping porn

Hi, does it ever get to a point where you know you've overcome the habbit of watching porn, I've been clean for 2 weeks today and feel fine without it and not need for it as I can do it with my imagination. Can it go after this short amount of time? Im also not sure that going through a breakup has also forced me into not wanting to watch it as it caused the breakup?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Lack of motivation

Hi everyone, I've been split up now for around 2 weeks from my partner for something that was my fault. I have days where I'm okay but I'm having more days where I have no motivation to do anything and even going outside makes me anxious and worries me. Is there anything I can do to try help this and is it okay to sit feeling like this and not doing anything on the days that are worse?

Thanks

Therapy

Hi all, I've just gone to my first ever therapy session. I would highly recommend going if you've considered it but not gone yet. Having someone to talk to about it is such a weight of the shoulder and really helps you understand your behaviours that could be leading to the addiction! I feel much better after being able to speak it and not be the only one who knows my problem. I't doesn't make the addiction go away but it's a good start to understand why and how.

No desire

Hi all, I've come out of a relationship due to my problem and that's my fault. I'm not actually finding any urges specifically for porn but maybe for looking at pictures of women. I haven't done it yet and am 6 days in. Is the thought of the breakup being bad and hurting someone from this cause me to not care for porn anymore as the pain I have cause and am feeling? Or should I still be careful about the idea of it? I didn't want to do it to images of women i feel attractive still, I haven't just in case it leads me down that path again, but just curious on what people may think.

Thanks. Any thoughts would be great! Best of luck to you all!

Ignoring urges

Hi all, I've started to quit porn, I'm 5 days im at this point and have felt ok, I think mainly down to coming out of a relationship due to my addiction to it and seeking more/different content. I have felt some urges to want to masterbait. I was wondering if even though I'm not going to be 100% in the mood but feel I will soon, that if I am to masterbait using my imagination rather then images or porn can this prevent me from falling to the relapse and watching porn while doing so?

Thanks

Addiction

Hi all

I'm male and 24. I've recently come out of a relationship due to my issues and have hurt someone. I'm not sure how I never realised how bad my issue was till now. I've gone out my way to seek content from random people online who I don't know or who don't do adult content. I've been watching porn for a very long time and feel some what numb to it. I think that I've had to reach out to other places to get the same feeling I did before. Had anyone had this experience and how did you cope and overcome it.

Thanks

How to overcome the addiction

Hi, I've come to the conclusion that I've been processing too much adult content. I think it has effected more than I realise. I know it isn't normal but would this be a reason to reach out to random people to ask to buy content in a way of wanting to feel something different as i dont feel much with the normal stuff online? And also how to I begin to move away from this. Im currently 3 days away, but due to splitting up with my partner mainly over this and me pursuing to buy adult content.

Thanks for any responses. Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm trying to become better and healthier.

I'm male 24, i had a amazing relationship before splitting up with my partner. I want make it up to her but need help to begin being better.
