If I start watching it again at all, I want it to help me build my sexual confidence back to where it used to be.
Not feel guilty after.
I want to be able to resist watching it when I feel compelled to
I want to use that time to be productive like working out or learning something.
I look forward to watching porn more than sex with my partner, I want change that
I want to watch more than my one specific porn fantasy and I want to stop feeling guilty when I “do it too much”
I need to stop turning to porn when I’m bored or have nothing to do
I want to stop watching porn
I want to unfollow the “thirst trap” accounts on social media, as I did for a bit in the past and I saw some good results regarding my overall mental wellbeing and dopamine levels/depletion. I want to try more sexual stories ASMR to explore a more emotive side of “porn”, I feel like I’m in the middle of that story instead of just watching two people have sex on a screen, which for me is more arousing
My wife is interested in porn, but I often feel self conscious to pick a video to watch. I should open up and ask her thoughts about it and see if she has recommendations or provide a way for her to comfortably speak up if a particular video is not appealing to her.
Not sure I need to change my relationship with porn at all. Helpful walking through the exercise to see that my porn use is likely not causing my ED issues.
I want to stop watching porn and focus on having regular penetrative sex with my partner.
How much I use it as an escape
I want to be able use tools that don’t include watching 2 people having sex, like ASMR stuff that’s more immersive and you get inside the story. That’ll help me be more present eith my partner in the moment
How I use it to self sooth
Too much consumption and desensitization
Not use it so casually when I’m bored or need a fix on my phone
I want to stop using porn to relieve stress or mask my loneliness
more ASMR erotic stories to engage the full arousal and erection process, less visual pornography as a quick stress relief during the day, be led by arousal more than boredom, free time or procrastination
Audio descriptions, limiting use before bedtime & length of time using, finding new fantasies to explore. I don’t want to use it compulsively to procrastinate, and I don’t want to hurt myself/chafe to pleasure myself!!
