I’ve slowly been phasing it out of my life the last 5 months, I haven’t used it to masturbate in nearly 3 months and only looked at it about 4-5 times in that timeframe, I’m less interested in watching it the further I get away from it and feel like I’m doing good work for myself, as I would like to phase it out of my life altogether.
I think this set of lessons was incredibly insightful. I think the key nugget is the concept of considering why you want to watch porn. Many times I would just reach for it before bed as a way of winding down or just to feel good. This lets me think about other ways to wind down that doesn’t leave me solely relying on porn.
Non voglio guardarlo perché credo che abbia ripercussioni sulla mia vita di tutti i giorni
Be more conscious about why I want to watch porn, try to vary what I am watching for pleasure and consider ethical options
I’ve cut down about 80-90%… I’ve actually gone to watching porn by creators and not traditional studios as well.
I’m glad to know that it is not as detrimental as I once thought it was. But, like the actives mention, it can be detrimental if used in the wrong way or too frequently, so I am glad to now be acutely aware of this. A main goal from here is to reduce porn intake significantly (pipe dream being to get rid of it entirely), as I often find myself feeling guilty after watching it. When I do feel in the mood and am alone, I intend to utilise the erotic bank of stories stored on this app or tap into my own erotic bank which I also need to expand. Overall, this section has made me much more confident around porn, and more aware of the positive ways I can consume it if I should want to.
A lot of this course removed the “shame” and “this is destroying your sex life” stigma around porn. It’s actually made both porn and sex more enjoyable. I do want to be more mindful about why I’m watching
It’s already helping! I notice myself retracting when I lean in to pick up my phone to look up porn. It’s really just a bad happen and once I start I get locked in. But if I don’t pick up, I’m good.
Using what I now know, I think my porn habits are healthy as it is not causing me issues in any areas unless I feel guilty about watching it. I only watch it once or twice a week.
Feel like my relationship with porn is actually ok and I should feel less bad about it - only thing is it does create unrealistic body expectations for my partner and I need to be mindful about that and can reduce with that in mind.
Feel like my relationship with porn is actually not bad, but could be better. Better in the sense of I should not use it as a first option for escaping negative feelings and compare my sexual experiences with it. So I’m keeping a log to work and change it.
I’m keeping a log to work and change it for the better.
Going to start tracking why I’m watching it when I do to identify the cause
I’ve been off porn cold turkey for over a month, right before I started Mojo. Even though it’s nice to realise that porn addiction isn’t necessarily real, it’s also been a rgeat way of forcing me to use my imagination more when I masturbate.
I feel inadequate when I watch
I was porn cold turkey for 4 months. I watched porn once after 4 months and then I was back watching it daily at night. I realized it’s the boredom and stress which lead me to watch porn. There is so much variety and so much content these days that if I start watching it then I am hooked to it and keep on looking to find the perfect content. I have realized that before watching porn, I just have to thought why I am watching it and is it worthwhile. Then I am good and realize that it’s not a problem and don’t feel a need to watch it.
My plan is to not watch porn while masturbating, and significantly cut down on watching it in general. I feel it has given me a very fake idea of how real sex should be like
I stopped watching and consuming after reading the ebook eazy peazy method
I’ve managed periods in the past without watching porn, but when I get back into it, it feels like an addiction. I equate getting off with watching porn. And that’s why I need to stop it.
Porn has always over promised and under delivered and I feel like there is a correlation at least between some issues for me.
