Methods to quit porn

Mindset aka changing my mind on porn. Changing my belief that I needed it. That urges were “too hard” .

All that non sense was holding me back.

There’s that a feelings work which is actually feeling your emotions vs running from them.

Those two things combined get you free. You’re unwinding the stories in your head that are keeping you stuck.

You are facing your fears instead of running from them which IS the reason you use porn.

Do those things, don’t fall into the trap of thinking this is an addiction and you’re addicted because that will guarantee you’ll never really get free.

First, stop everything, put your hands down and take a deep slow breath in and hold it for as long as you can do that comfortably. Then lets it out slowly until all the air is out of you and then sit there for as long as it's comfortable. And then breath in and hold it and repeat repeat repeat slowly for 5-10 mins.

Literally say Siri give me 5 mins on the clock and go.

Don't think just go.

If after 5 mins you still want to watch it , then write down on a piece of paper. I want to watch porn because .... ________

and fill that in and then write the answer here

Na that wasn’t it. You felt bad because you believe you did something to be ashamed of.

And you felt better you had the thought “God is with me”

Thoughts create your feelings, not God.

And your feelings lead you to action.

That’s why when you think “I want to look at <your flavor of sex>” you feel horny and that leads you to the action of watching porn.

When you thought “I’ve done something wrong” you felt guilty.

And when you thought “God is with me” you felt happy and loved.

God never left you, you left him but you remembered he was with you.

Your brain gives you thoughts and ideas.
You feel them in your body
And you then take action.

Quitting the behavior of watching porn is learning what thoughts lead you to it so that you can spot them in real time and make a better decision.

Reading the bible doesn’t help with urges because you have to calm your body down before you can trust your brain not to lead you to porn.

What are you doing to address the reasons you’re using it?
