I don’t watch porn regularly and very rarely as a stress reliever, but I recognise the difference for myself between watching porn and an in-person sexual experience. I think porn is healthy to explore sexual interests, but i do not want to be reliant on it for a good erection. I want to take a step-back from it and focus on being in the moment going forward.
When i get bored i don’t want to find myself watching porn.

Not feel as if it is the only way I can easily get hard

I think I use porn as a distraction and stress reliever, like when I have things on my mind or am procrastinating. I think I need to use different methods to relieve my stress and focus on my priorities and what really matters to me.

Porn ruined my life. Im getting back to finally being okay after it destroyed me. It’s different when you have a really addictive personality and get addicted to it.
I am actually turned off by most porn. Watching all the humping and pumping doesn’t do it for me. I need more of a connection to get it up and stay up.
I want to just stop watching porn because it’s just a useless habit that really only acts as an anti depressant
I’d like to use porn less as an atturude adjuster, I consciously choose to rely on other ways to feel better
I want to use it less and less. I need to face my demons head on instead of using porn to mask my feelings of inadequacy.
I have stopped using
I want to not rely on porn and masturbation to have enjoyable orgasms
I feel like I use porn as a confirmation that I can stay hard when I am not sure. Mostly if there’s a date the same day I need to be sure that my penis is going to work.
I want to stop having guilt and failure feelings after watching porn.
When I use porn infrequently, I think it helps me to open up and channel sexual feelings and desire, but using it too often drains my libido and makes it more difficult to get erections during sex. I’d like to be able to achieve a balance, but it’s hard to do because overusing porn is such an easy way to soothe when I start feeling stressed or restless.
I would like to completely step away from porn even though I only view it occasionally I could see how it could possibly make it harder for me to be aroused in person.

Not masterbate to porn and reduce my desensitisation to sexual encounters
I would like to completely step away from porn as whole
I want to stop relying on porn as a safe place for sexual experience. I want to be able to feel comfortable and safe during sex, just like I do when I PMC.
I want to reduce porn as a stress release, its a daily habit and I’m slightly guilty to the quantity I consume but not to porn as a whole. It was a coping mechanism back when I had a traumatic event and I never recognize it as a coping strategy. I think i need to consider trying to think about my feelings prior to engaging with porn.
I want to avoid compulsively using porn as a stress release. I want to step away from porn for a while because whenever I think of porn, I want to use porn just to use it and not because I’m aroused or want to have sex.
