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

I’m going to encourage myself that my sexuality is good before and after watching. And maybe encourage myself to watch something I normally wouldn’t.

My occasional porn use is not problematic on its own, but sometimes I use it as a “crutch” before sex to get in the mood. I would like it to be easier for me to get in a sexual state of mind without porn. I also feel that I need to hide this use from my partner, which makes me feel guilty. Overall I would like for it to feel like an occasional fun treat, and not a primary way for me to become aroused.

Watch it less, focus on physical intimacy

Not to feel guilty for watching it occasionally. I don’t feel it has any impact on my sex life.

I want to feel confident and happy after using porn rather than feeling shame or guilt

I tend to picture porn when I am having sex . I want to cut porn out completely for now . It’s definitely been compulsive for me , and I want to be more in the moment . My girlfriend sends me pics all the time , so I want to masturbate to that :slight_smile: My goal is to connect with her on a deeper level and stay in the moment

I want to find healthier ways to cope or self soothe without using porn. I would like to watch porn only during sex with my partner or during masturbation.

Porn help me to make it up so fast but I want to change it to my own imagination and normal masturbation or sex

I want to break porn from my routine and keep it as a spontaneous thing. I don’t want my mind to go there every time I am bored and alone and instead fill that time with productive things that benefit my well-being.

I feel more sexual energy when I don’t watch, so I’d like to stop.

I want to make sure my relationship with porn is healthy, keep it to certain time limits. Don’t endless search for the perfect video when I couldve been done an hour before. Make sure that anything watched is something that could happen as to not desensitize myself. And finally, to not have it be a coping mechanism but a fun release of tension in the right situations

My imagination used to be much more powerful, I would ultimately like to find that place again where I don’t use porn because my imagination is exhausted or ineffectual.

Stop it feeling like a dirty secret and share it with my partner. I’m not addicted to it but I do use it when I’m bored as well as when I’m horny.

I want to use better coping techniques than watching porn.

I want to use it less, and find new ways to self-soothe.

I want to ensure its not the only way I can become aroused and watch various types instead of the same one

I want to stop using porn as a distraction when I’m working from home or when I’m bored

Limiting or taking Twitter off my phone. Too much easy access and endless amount of porn for me to just consume for the sake of consuming it.

Nothing, honestly. If anything, I’d like to watch some porn with my partners to maybe see what they enjoy and we can indulge in them together.

Watch it a bit less.
