What do you want to change about your porn use? (Part 1)

I want to slowly stop and make progress today !!!

Less of it and more real sex

I love the feeling of the ejaculation after watching some real taboo stuff. It’s a rush. I can imagine in vivid detail some of the things that I would do if I had the chance. I have relied on porn to get me through. Tbh I haven’t had a lot of mind blowing sex and watching porn the way I do makes up for the lack oh wretched man am I

I want to stop porn completely it’s ruined my life

Find other things to do instead of relying on porn when bored or alone.
Stop watching the same type of scenario.

I usually only watch porn once a week as a means of stress relief. I want to work on not feeling guilty about it afterwards. I also don’t want to rush it. Also don’t want to compare myself to the male porn stars.

I need to learn healthier strategies for coping with my emotions. As a recovering addict/alcoholic, I am the type to use it compulsively at times. It’s been an unhealthy escape for many years…interestingly, it even became a problem before I ever used drugs or drank. I have a lot of shame attached to porn and I sense it is part of my ED issues. This has been an eye opening course for me!

I want to stop using it compulsively, it’s almost like a crutch sometimes to start or get through the day. I want to stop fantasizing about porn when I’m with my wife and focus solely on her.

The big thing is the feeling of envy I feel towards the dudes. They literally have professional hard ons. Wich is so far from what I’m living with it makes me sometimes sad.

I want to keep an eye and really notice if I am masturbating out of habit to avoid negative feelings. I want to use it more healthily, not as something that I do everyday to feel a moment of pleasure

I want to stop using porn as a crutch. I want to only use it here or there to blow off steam, and relax, instead of when I’m bored or need a pick me up.

I want to learn to use it as a tool, and not just a way to kill some time.

I would have stretches or seasons in my life where I would use it compulsively, and a great way to release some stress and kill time.

Honestly I would like to use it once a week. It’s definitely slowed down for me, but will occasionally flare up. I also would definitely want to get rid of the guilt associated with it.

Watch it less often, watch a variety of fantasies and not just one

Just only watch it or look at it when I have time to properly enjoy and not rushing it

Ultimately I want to stop watching porn altogether, I feel like it’s a compulsive behavior I’ve had since a child due to boredom and frustration and it feels like an unhealthy compulsive behavior.

I mainly use it as a coping mechanism when I’m rejected by my fiance (which has been going on for about 8 months straight now because of my inability to keep an erection). I want to stop feeling guilty for using it and have a better self soothing mechanism for the times I feel guilty before I even watch it, to redirect my energy elsewhere. If I could stop using it even 2 in 5 times I get the urge I would be happy with myself.

I do not watch porn anymore. I find it downgrading and I feel guilty. Enough is enough

I would like to not make it a routine. I’d like to watch it less. Currently I watch and think about a handful of specific scenarios. but I think I should expand the range of stuff I watch and not rely on any one thing to be aroused.

To stop comparing myself to those in porn.
