I like how mojo suggested different things to try rather than porn. Gonna try.
I want to find new ways to deal with my triggers.
It’s autopilot for me - when the house is free I revert to being a teenage boy…then feel crap afterward
I use it sometimes to cure boredom
I use porn for a quick dopamine hit when I want to feel good but then I regret it afterwards
I acknowledge it’s usually a distraction from underlying causes that leaves me without solutions or energy
Porn is a way for me to avoid negative feelings
I watch porn when im anxious.
I feel like I need it when im anxious about someone im dating, it feels like if im not horny i can let go those thoughts easier
Messaging the AI coach if I get bored
Most of my porn views come from gaming and being bored
I watch porn when I’m bored or stressed. 5 min before I started this i was watching porn. Not even touching myself, just got bored of the show I was watching
That the reasons we watch porn are often what’s debilitating not porn in and of itself. Personally, I’ve learned even if I don’t use porn a lot that I turn to it to deal with emotions. I want to stop that.
To avoid feeling. And now it’s a habit of boredom
My main goal regarding porn is building better habits to turn to when I’m bored or in my head.
I watch porn because of habits.
I believe I can just use other methods to address the reasons why I watch porn. I occasionally watch porn and what I mean by occasionally is every 2,3 or four months. perhaps I save all that stress or all those negative feelings.
It’s an autopilot thing, part of a bedtime routine, or when I get frustrated or bored working from home. It’s not really what I want - just cheap pleasure
It’s a habit thing. If I’m horny…… watch some porn. Ready to sleep, porn first, then straight to sleep.

Same bro it’s 3am I can’t go to sleep and I’ve tried. I knock one out and now there’s nothing else to do let’s go to sleep lol
I watch porn to masturbate, cum quickly, feel good briefly and then carry on with what I was doing before hand
Want to not be as reliant on porn
I never realized it until it was pointed out, it’s become such a habit I am no longer using it for the reasons I enjoyed it. It used to be, I want to accompany a good ‘self love session’ with a visual fantasy to enhance the pleasure.
Now it’s built into my nightly routines to the point where I log in to the same apps, in the same order, and I turned it into a compulsive habit rather than do it because I crave it.
