I've been trying to quit for 3 years now. I think I only got worse. Just this summer I lasted a month (not uncommon for me when I get burned out), but then the usual depressive state hit me (flatline?) and after wrestling with it for a week I caved in as usual.
>Porn burned out my brain so I don't enjoy anything and hate my life
>Hate my life and don't enjoy anything so I willingly go back to it
How the FUCK do you stop this, preferrably without fixing your life because I don't know how to do that either.
>Just work out and eat healthy
Doesn't have anything to do with porn, never helped. Also I don't like working out.
>Get a gf / make friends
I don't want a gf and never enjoyed anyone's company
>Block it on your router
I have and then I unblocked it. Besides, there's too many workarounds
>Willpower etc etc
I have none, never had any and never will.
>Hobbies
Nothing is fun and I couldn't care less. I assume this is a side effect of porn addiction, so I'd have to actually quit and recover first.
>Easypeasy
Good book, nearly got me out. It has a passage about being the kind of person who relapses despite going for prolonged periods (1-2 months) and it's much harder to quit if you're like that. I am like that
tl;dr
I can occasionally go for a full month, but after that I get fucked up and lose control. I am the kind of person who can spend the whole day jerking off without even eating anything, which is why I want to kick the habit.

Troll thread. Sage.

>>33736959
Just knowing how much more confidence I have when I go no fap is enough motivation for me.
>>
>>33736959
Wrong place to ask. We can't even quit 4chan.
>>
>>33736959
Why would you quit something you enjoy doing? You live in the internet age with so much content out there. It would be stupid to stop.

I think you should just focus on speeding up your recovery. Take supplements to replenish whatever is lost during your sessions. You can buy them in bulk and make them yourself.

From an evolutionary perspective, your brain has not yet adapted to the digital age. You're consuming high amounts of stimulating content, yet you're eating the diet of a 19th century peasant. You need to adapt your diet for this lifestyle.

Unironically have sex. You will have desire either way. Your choice is between pussy or porn. Inb4 b-b-but just use your imagina bitch get the fuck outta here ain't nobody living like it's 1865.

start jerkin off to nothing, easier to start this in the mornings when you have morning wood. Just think of it as a way to relax, keep your thoughts unlustful. the problem most people face when they quit porn is they just end up imagining porn in their head. it's really dumb. You want to free yourself of lust, that's the goal. Do this for awhile and porn will just make you laugh. it makes me laugh anyways, I get really really hard when i'm talking to someone I like, and I nut alot, but all unlustful. it feels really nice.

I learnt a valuable lesson , never get overconfident, I hadn't done it In more than a month and I started giving out advice on how I quit porn, only for me to relapse a few days ago, lesson learnt, don't get overconfident and with gods help I shall suceed
>>
>>33737027
I felt no difference. I just become emotionless and don't care for anything.
>>33737034
But my brain is completely blown out, no? I don't enjoy anything but porn. I don't want to do anything at all. I don't think any diet can really fix that. Otherwise.. yeah, I enjoy it a tad bit too much.

Bizarre post, but best advice so far. Maybe jerking off to nothing will break the conditioning and help in the long run. Thanks...

>>33736959
When you realize it's completely fake, and those women are just unhappy prostitutes making dumb sound effects for your pitiful amusement, it takes all the enjoyment out of it
>>
>>33737997
I don't jerk off to real women, nor do I listen to sound effects while doing it.

>>33736959
You need to get a hold of yourself and grow up. You want willpower? Work on it. Actually work on it. Yes it's going to be difficult. But it will get easier. That's how life works.
