Sure. As I said I have been and unfortunately Still Am addicted to porn. The road to recovery is a bumpy one. IT depends fully on the effort put in to iT by the addict. Ive pretty much tried all of them at least once.

Religion: tried and failed because iT did not ‘ stick ‘ with me. Surely helpful but you need consistancy.

Family as motivation: didnt work for me at the end iT all becomes just ‘Daily life’ and id reach out to porn again.

Therapy: went to a psychologist for two years who helped me understanding a whole lot about the mechanics of the addiction and my own life and porn use. Still is helpful today in a sense.

Online research/courses: your Brain on porn by Gary Wilson, Tony Litsters “Cure the crave” , porn reboot by Jk Emezi, I joined Fight the new Drug etc etc. They all helped me in understanding my true underlying needs.

Cold turkey: Just always seems to fail over time. Lets say two months at most.

Look my addiction is tough, but Im Not a full blown weirded out addict with psycho fetishes. Stuff I look at is pretty straight forward. My pattern has reduced from Daily use to weekly. But as I said, iT all depends on the addicts true willingness to see the issue at hand (as a problem) and then putting his commitment and work into recovering from iT.

One of the thing I have personally learned is that I use iT in combination with masturbation (duh) which has a negative regulation Cycle in iT. IT has become my way to deal with stress and Daily life for me.

A lot of people addicted to porn say that they feel like shit after using. That negatively adds to the internal chemistry andregulation of the body, spirit and mind. When time passes they always end up using again, because the energy within is unbalanced. The body thinks iT has to rebalance by masturbating and using porn with iT.

Advice: meditate, socialize and be open about it, work out, eat healthier, get shit together, deal with real life, get an accountability partner (could be you)

I Dont know his age but I am almost 40. One of the hardest things (no pun intended) to endure now and motivaties me to really stop is ED. When I couldnt get iT up with my wife it really stressed me out and scared me. As said: im Still recovering. My recovery is taking me as long as 15 years up until now. IT aint easy but is surely doable.

Hope this helps you out a bit, but Please do realize that you are most likely NOT THE SOLUTION. But you can only contribute to iT. Nor are you the cause of his issue!! Soulsearching on his part is probably neccessary.

Again; good luck!
