What do you want to change about your porn use? (Part 2)

I used to only get off watching porn, since my partner wasn’t sexually active. These days I don’t watch porn and rely on my build up to create arousal between me and my partner.

I want to cut short of my porn use, because I think I can‘t enjoy Sex with my wife as much, when I masturbate to often. Need to reserve the sexual energy for Sex with her.

I think it’s become a crutch and it plays on my mind.

Porn became a habit that I couldn’t kick for more than a few days. It felt like I didn’t have the desire to masturbate or have sex unless I knew porn was involved.

I think I use it when I’m bored or to procrastinate, and then I worry it will affect my sex life

I watch porn when I’m bored, when I’m hard and need a release when my partner is not around, to get to sleep faster or if I haven’t watched in a long time. When I was in my teens and twenties I watched every single day, but definitely not as often now. I don’t think porn is the reason for my sexual performance anxiety, but I know it plays a part.

Now that my erections are better I’m so excited but I feel like I’m watching porn more frequently than I did again I been using it to help my edge but I fear I’m getting addy again I don’t want to not be aroused by my partner because I’m back watching porn often again I love my girlfriend and she is beautiful so I’m going to try to watch a bit less

I have been aware for some time now that I use porn and masturbation to procrastinate from doing other tasks that are important. After I do, I feel guilty for “falling in the trap” again and them best myself up for having done it. My goal is to work on maintaining my focus and accomplishing my tasks and goals and enjoying porn and maturation as downtime and leisure.

I watch porn as a sexual release as I don’t have sex with my partner very frequently (we can go over 6 months sometimes without it).

I go through phases of porn use. Sometimes I’ll go weeks/months without watching any. Sometimes I’ll have phases of weeks/months of daily viewing. It’s usually only out of horniness though. I’ll pay attention to the reasons I decide to watch it

Before i had fantasy about step porn but now it has been a while since i opened porn and it feels good not to use it

I want to reduce the amount of porn, as it’s affecting my sex life. I use porn daily as it is easier than having sex with my partner. I want to save up my sexual desire and explore other methods of stimulation.

63 [m] wife doesn’t want see, once a month maybe and even though I go down on her and make her cum , she refuses to give me a blowjob, so I use porn to cum.

No at all

I sometimes watch porn in a compulsive-scrolling way. I’m not jerking off, sometimes not even hard or turned on — just watching guys :sweat_drops: over and over. I want to change my habits so that I only use porn to jerk off and orgasm.

I think so. I use it almost exclusively to de-stress or procrastinaste. Most times I don’t even really orgasm hard from it, it just turns my brain off

Whenever I’m unsuccessful with sex because I couldn’t get it up or cum early, that’s usually when I will increase my poem usage because I feel like I’m broken and I almost need to show myself that I can get hard still. Doesn’t always work though. Occasionally I can’t get it up for porn either. It seems so random for me.

I use porn either as a cure for boredom, or because I’m stressed and procrastinating on something. Lately I’ve been telling myself that the best thing for me to do when I’m using it just as a habitual cure for boredom is the just fully leave the house/go for a hike or something. I don’t think porn usage is inherently bad, but I find myself watching it for reasons other than actually being horny and that feels like it needs to stop.

I watch porn when I masturbate. I feel like I need the visuals but also can’t get hard from just that. I have to physical touch myself to get an erection. Wish I could get hard from kissing and just seeing my girlfriend naked.

I use porn as a getaway and coping mechanism. Every time before I shower it’s like I have to masturbate. I feel it helps me relax but I’ve noticed when I’m having issues in my relationship I tend to jack off more often. I always feel guilty about it and ashamed.
