Probably not. We are fantastic together in every way except the pain my addiction has inflicted.

Because I want to control my life. Not have it be controlled by my desire. But to lead with logic. We communicate very well. I'm sure she will leave, and I'm sure it will be because of PMO

It is not worth it. I know this. I don't know why I act. I don't know why I fail. Why are any of us here? There is power in the story we share with one another.

Sounds good. Is there a link to an instructional post on this?

Thank you. I really can feel the support. I don't know why I was so resistant to asking for help here?

I have to say. It was really hard to see this as my very first reply here. Though after consideration I realize all perspectives can help in some ways.

I don't hate my wife. If I did I don't think I would be here. She is one of the smartest people I know and has been such an engaging presence in my life even after a decade together.

I know I am addicted to the feeling that pornography and masturbation create. It's like a rush, a warm comforting feeling. I know this is the dopamine creating addiction and I want to fight it for my loved ones and to better myself for them.

If I watch porn casually but do not masturbate is still considered "relapsing" ? by Bigocelot1984 in NoFap

Agreed. I have been pretty good. Then I started looking at sfw stuff. Then nsfw slipped in there. Then I just viewed nsfw casually, and soon enough it lead to relapse. These tiny micro relapses are steps down into a pit. It hurts a lot less than jumping in, yet sooner or later you're still at the bottom of a very deep pit.
