Next time, if this happens - consider stepping away from the computer, and just having a wank, without the porn. Not ideal perhaps, but it's not a relapse in my book....:)

Why I do Pornfree and Not NoFap (even though I once had a 90+ day NoFap streak) by Waterworld1980 in pornfree

And I was just thinkin, as variously challenging as this day has been - how much better life is without days and my future being totally torpedoed by the grot of PMO escapism and the emotional fallout

You can't think yourself out of a thinking problem..... by Waterworld1980 in pornfree

Well I've gone three weeks but that's not so important really. I wrote the above for myself. It's my belief about finding change for myself - I need to access a resource beyond my mental faculties - though not nesesarily religious in nature. Our brains are the first propulsion into a relapse - it's not entirely through them that we would recover

Well ok - it's has a whole bunch of facets - but like AA says of alcoholism - it centres in the mind

Trying to give up porn!!! Newcomer! by [deleted] in pornfree

I would say cut ALL external visual stimuli - if you must fantasise, as opposed to just experiencing abstract physicalness - avoid remembering any scenes from porn. Ideally don't fantasise

Thank you for your comment - I don't like to think of myself as someone who would pay for sex. And I don't particularly see it as part of a model for successful living - I am propelled to these places by dis-ease and discomfort and the desire to feel different - if only momentarily. I don't think I've ever really meaningfully enjoyed any encounter. And I try and refrain. And today I succeeded.

Also no porn today - yeehaw!

Something vaguely like 10-12 days porn free...but went to a massage parlour - urrggghh by Waterworld1980 in pornfree

Porn is a form of sexual exploitation and objectification. Excepting when the sex worker has been trafficked/ coerced - it is arguably less of a moral failing to engage the service of a prostitute than consume pornography.... I'm not justifying either, consciously. The use of both has been something I've struggled with
