Any advice on quitting porn? I spend too much time jerking off and it's eating my life away. I'm not trying to quit masturbation, because I think that it's unreal in my circumstances. I think that If I'll stop watching it, masturbation becomes less enticing.
>>34268667There's at least 3 posts on this today.Lookup the flying eagle method, and talk to someone about your goal IRL. (It's probably a goal for them too)
like any addiction that has no obvious short term detrimental effect, you need to aim for a reduction of frequency, not for quitting. if you aim for quitting, you are very likely to fall back into it, which will register as a failure to quit, which will make you think you tried and you have no free will over it.instead, you need to negotiate something reasonable with yourself. for example, once a week. or twice a week to start with. the aim is to set a goal that is easy to achieve while reducing your consumption. it will be easier to not watch porn on a certain day because you know you are goign to allow you to watch porn in the upcoming days. this will feel like you're succeeding (because you are) which will be a good motivation to not break the rule. but most importantly, you brain will slowly get used to have less porn. this is the real win, because from once a day it's easy to go to once every two days, and if you keep it once every two days for a couple months, it will be easy to go to twice a week. and your brain will get less and less addicted.remember, it's way better to watch porn once a week than to not watch porn for a month and then fall back into it like you never stopped.
>>34268667Don't use this site dumbass.
get a fleshlight and use it without looking at porn, kinda worked for me at least.
>>34268688No OP but I stumbled into this threadI haven't heard of the flying tiger method before.... but now I feel inspiredI didn't have the intention to today, but I think I'm going to try to quitThanks man
>>34268667You will never find the perfect content. All you lose is time. Notice how fast it passes. For what? You will never find the perfect content that does what it promises.
I'm in the same boat and I just stopped watching and masturbating to porn. I don't know if I'm constantly relapsing whenever I go on social media or on r9k because of all the sexual content everywhere, but I try to avoid and scroll past them.My goal is to fix my PIED so I'm allowing myself to masturbate sometimes, but no artificial stimuli.
>>34268667Helps to mentally understand that it is just a series of dopamine hits.There is no actual value to it.Beyond that you just need to stop.
>>34268667i stopped like a month agoyou just have to be motivated to stop there's not much to it
>>34268667It doesn't matter, you're only jerking off that much because you're too much of a lazy faggot to do anything else.Find a hobby and work on improving yourself and you won't have to worry about porn.
If you wanna stop my best advice is in same what someone in a discord dm I talked to in just replacing the time you'd have for jerking it with something else foe example say doing some light exercises or meditation/reading the bible anything that'll help you want to look at porn less
Get married
