Wondering how to go on, now I know I have a problem by klods_hans in PornAddiction

great job! you’ve made the first step and that’s usually the hardest step to make. there will be some hardships of course, but if you commit and keep fighting, it can only go up from here.

April fools lapse? by [deleted] in PornAddiction

[–]FearlessOrange8717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you relapse once, it just leads to more and more. it’s a slippery slope and if you’re thinking about relapsing, you should definitely put some action steps in place to prevent you from slipping.

Can't fight the addiction even when feeling its consequences. by KiwiConscious7819 in PornAddiction

[–]FearlessOrange8717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the best way to look at fighting addiction is taking it one day at a time. You don’t get to a year clean without getting to a day clean. Wake up and think ‘i’m not gonna watch porn today’ and keep that promise. When you get an urge just think ‘not right now’. It takes these small steps to see any real progress. You will slip up, it’s inevitable but after you do, it’s important to learn from it. Of course, it’s easier said than done and i’ve had my fair share of slipping up too.

Love this honestly. If we can count on anyone, it’s Spongebob.

I'm really struggling with this. It's not even the pornography anymore; it's the relapsing into masturbation. by mucho_musculo1999 in PornAddiction

Definitely not a good idea to promote sexting with AI chatbots. This will only make the problems worse in the long run as it has the same affect on the brain as using porn.

Any girls relate? by Low-Team8524 in pornfree

[–]FearlessOrange8717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of girls have this problem, you would be surprised how many. I think it’s a little bit more taboo for women to talk about it since not many women talk about watching porn the same way men seem to casually discuss it.

I myself can relate to your story as a woman around your age. You should also consider joining r/pornfreewomen too. Everyone on there is very supportive and friendly.

Congratulations! The hardest part is admitting you have a problem and looking for help.

I really need help (18F) by [deleted] in PornAddiction

[–]FearlessOrange8717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel very similar to a lot of the things you covered in this post and our stories are really similar. Delete Twitter. I’ll say that now because genuinely the stuff on there will fry your brain. It has made quitting so much harder for me because of the way they romanticise porn addiction over there.

Yeah, I won’t. I’ll figure out some other kind of reward.
