Hi,
I’ve tried to stop watching porn for ages now… Basically all of my 20s. I feel like I’ve got to the point where nothing can help me and I’m in a relationship with a long term girlfriend but I’m never in the mood for sex. I never feel like I’m going to climax during sex and can only do so when I finish myself.
One thing I’ve recognised is that I find it hard to abstain from porn when I’m at home alone. For example, working at the office is fine but when working from home I struggle with it. Does anyone else experience this?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I’ve had times where I’ve been very addicted to porn. I’ve worked out that I use it to avoid other things like actually having sex with my wife because I might not be able to get it up or even tasks or jobs that I need to focus on. I’ve also used it as a way to just escape and relax.
Since starting this course, I’ve been meditating daily which has helped diffuse stress, I’ve been open with my wife about my issues and I’ve found it easier to switch off from porn and haven’t felt the urge to watch it so much.
Work out why you watch porn as you’ve obviously worked out when you’re likely to watch it and then put in some practices to replace the need to watch it. It will take time to break the habit but you’ll be better for it and so will your penis and relationship.
