Very good post and congratulations on taking significant steps towards overcoming the lust brought on by porn.

I skimmed through the article you shared and so many helpful tips were provided. Thank you.
One thing I would add is that it would help to watch a documentary on the truth behind the porn industry. When I realised that the women, and even the men, didn’t even enjoy the experience, it turned me off porn. Many of them take painkillers just to cope with the pain they experience during their scenes. Also, realising that for them it was mostly about money and doing it as a job made me both angry with the porn industry but also helped me feel compassion for our “brothers” and “sisters”. The pain, humiliation and destruction that they must endure for our gratification is almost too much to bear. When we see these porn actors, and even producers, as real flesh and blood individuals, it draws out our compassion for them.

I just thought I should share that as that has really helped me with my fight against porn.

So I was one to masturbate and cryi in the dark whilst watching porn
After 6yrs (of trying to overcome), the wrong link was posted in a group chat and obviously I clicked on it because we were talking about an upcoming social LGBTQ event.
Overall all I was numb by the DPP and BBC content that was put in my face.
Yes, I watched a bit of content and other genre.
I initially thought ‘wow I could finally knock one out after all my celibate years’ but I couldn’t climax. Years of no climax.
All I could think about was how degraded and trashy these people were made to feel to pay their bills.
I think after tonight, I can finally put this addiction to rest for good.

I’ve been celebrate for just over 4yrs, no physical contact, so I guess I still need to figure out how that’s going to trigger me. Try and fail, over and over with porn and masturbation. All I know is that there’s something bigger and better out there past the cyper, swingers clubs, and self gratification.
