For 2025 I’m limiting myself to porn twice a week. With hybrid working it’s all to easy to procrasturbate at home

I feel as if when I’m not watching porn I’m happier in life. I was a late bloomer and started watching porn when I was 14 and have had continued prolonged exposure for about 7 years. I don’t feel good after watching porn and masterbating anymore I feel shame and stress. I’ve been able to get off it now for 2 weeks and hope to continue, it’s almost as if porn took away the innocence I felt as a child.

After seeing the information on this app, porn at times is easier than real sex because I can cum with no pressure and at times I have struggled to maintain an erection or to cum during sex with my wife.

I’ve always used porn as a way to help me get to sleep. It’s always been a habit and something to look forward to before I go to sleep. Definitely a big habit that is hard to break

I’ve used porn for a long time, sometimes it’s been problematic, most of the time it’s fine. Recently it became problematic again when my wife went back to work, and I became the full time care taker for our four special needs children. Between the stress, and the boredom of having no other adults to talk to, whenever I would get a break, maybe once to three times a day, I would wack it to porn. This went on for roughly a month, and then it just became habit, I wasn’t even enjoying the experience anymore, it felt more like a chore, but I was compelled to do it out of habit. I’ve gone cold turkey for the last month and only had one mild relapse. When I feel really in the need for it, I go back through the nude images my partner has sent to me, and jack off to those instead, at least trying to do some good with neuroplasticity and conditioning while in a weaker state. My sex life was great before this, but now the guilt attached to what has happened has kickstarted my psychological ED issues…again . Definitely feeling more confident thanks to mojo though, only wish I could afford to use it for longer than the free trial. Wishing everybody the best on their journey here :pray:

Porn became a habit for me. I just did it bc that was something I just did. Breaking that habit will be hard but worth it.

Jacking off to porn helps me sleep. If I don’t jack off, I lay awake horny for hours.

At the stage now where it is just a habit and I skip through or jump to another video. Hopefully the attraction that was there is losing its appeal.

It’s a way to destress from a long day, distract myself, and a quick way to finish. I’d like to get off auto pilot and find better ways to destress

Its something I try to live my fantasies which are not easy to achieve and the relieve you get from everything is what our busy mind and life demands all the time.

I often actually watch porn to distract myself from my own problems whether that’s because I often don’t get action or my career choices

I definitely use porn most as a stress reducer and escape. That tends to make it quick and then I’ll linger if I’m really stressed. One of my first guesses to my issues was how I used stress and porn as an escape and not something to have fun with.

I use porn to guarantee satisfaction. There’s no pressure to perform so if I don’t get hard no big deal I can still cum but not disappoint

I want to reduce porn use and try to explore more novel experiences in real life

That I need to assess the when and why surrounding my use of porn recognizing that in recent years it has definitely been a stress reliever and filling a massive void.

Determine and understand what triggers me to watch porn

Porn is just a distraction/outlet and can be slowly replaced with other activities.

Porn has caused problems but i can overcome them and be better in all aspects of life :slight_smile:

I have been trying to wrap my head around how my self pleasure patterns and how I allowed myself to get where I am. Stressed? Watch porn, get turned on, masterbate. Bored? Watch porn, get turned on, masterbate.Lack of intimacy? Watch porn, get turned on masterbate. My partner is naked in front me and I struggle to get aroused and maintain lift off. The one case in which everything should be clicking and arousal is random at best and forced at worst. If I am stressed, bored, or unfulfilled, masterbating to porn is the last thing I should be queued up to do. It has absolutely become a coping mechanism. I hate that I find myself in these patterns.

That I watch porn when I’m bored sad or stressed even if it doesn’t feel great after
