I donāt think my porn usage is a large factor in problems Iām facing with erections although it is a factor. If anything Iām concerned that Iām not good enough or that my partner is out of my league. I never say or verbalize that insecurity because thatās not hot, and he says the contrary that Iām exactly his type and that Iām sexy all the time. Thereās a part of me that doesnāt believe it but Iām aware that that is my inner critic and donāt let it control my reaction or belief of it being genuine. The only thing that gives it credence is body image issues that I feel like anyone would have when watching porn or having it in the back of your mind. But I donāt feel like itās a root cause of issues, and itās human to have these thoughts. What im experiencing in regards to porn and ED is no different than what anyone else experiences and isnāt something that I should beat myself down for.
Iād like to get to a point where I donāt feel like my porn use is causing me troubles with getting an erection during foreplay. I have had times during foreplay where I simply canāt get hard even if I am really turned on, and once I start thinking about that it becomes impossible to get hard. I worry that my porn use over the last 15 years is a cause of this because Iāve become so used to visual stimulation and not physical sensations
Just use it less
I used to see porn videos quite often, sometimes 3 times a day. I keps always changing the porn video because i didnt get aroused enough. So I stoped to see porn long time ago, and now I only masturbate thinking only on my partners or people I fantasize about, fantasies that its possible to do in real life
No more porn as procrastination or anxiety distraction, no more turning to porn when i am not actually horny

I want to stop using it as a stress release, and stop using it during the work day when working from home
I would prefer to never use it, but I when do, itās due to being highly aroused and having no girlfriend or partner as an outlet for that sexual release. I donāt like using porn as thereās too much content and I hate spending so much time browsing until I find something to my liking.
Iām not really bothered too much about my porn use because i donāt use it excessively but i would like to not rely on porn images in my head to get fully hard and cum when Iām having sex with my gf. I think about the porn images way more than her body and I donāt want to rely on the images anymore. I feel guilty about it. I want to get super horny just by thinking about her.

I want to exercise more to relieve stress than using porn. And even if I do end up using it occasionally, I want to be okay with it and realize itās harmless by itself. Lastly I want to stop comparing my partner to pornstars.
Iām just pleased to discovered that watching a lot of porn isnāt turning me into an addict. I donāt think I feel much in the way of guilt or anything.
I would love to feel less compelled to use it just because Iām bored or looking for a distraction
I want to reduce the frequency of porn ātimeā in order to tap into and stimulate other sensory measuresā¦ that said I want to explore porn with my partner every now and again!
My judgmental state of mind
I want to change my mindset that I need to perform a certain way. Much of the reason I suffer from ED is because I keep thinking I NEED to last long and make her cum. It gets in the way because suddenly Iām not longer focusing on having fun but rather just focusing on staying hard.
Not to feel the overwhelming guilt
I want
I feel like watching porn makes me get use to masterbution instead of regular sex
I want to feel less reliant on porn for arousal. And use it occasionally for pleasure rather than compulsively for stress relief. I want to spend less time watching porn when I use it and less time searching for the perfect porn. Instead just find something quickly that aroused me and use it as a jumping off point. Also to feel less guilt about porn.
I feel guilty for watching too much porn and I want to stop watching it completely.
