Definitely. i did end up relapsing recently but it didn’t trigger a binge either. I watched some relatively soft core porn a few days ago and haven’t since or even really thought about it. Which hopefully is a sign I can continue to have a better relationship with it.

Well, I did it. I reached 90 days without masturbating to pornography. It was really hard at the start but got progressively easier and now I don’t even think about or desire to watch porn. i wouldn’t say it’s completely changed me, but I do find some of the noise in my head around sex has been...

I reached day 90 today!! Feels great to have accomplished the goal I set out at the start of the year

It’s crazy to write that down but it’s true, im only a few weeks away from the 90 day target I had felt for years was impossible. I can’t say there haven’t been struggles, and I didn’t fully quit masturbating or sex, but I feel so much less shame and guilt around those activities knowing im not...

Yep! Day 71 today!

Thought I’d share an update here - 65 days now without using pornography! Still going strong, now at the point where I really don’t think too much about it. I do masturbate still, but I find my erection is way better than it used to be. Not only does it feel fuller and firmer, but I don’t need...

I think it’s different for everyone and depends on what bothers you or is more likely to trigger a relapse. Ultimately this is a personal journey so only you can know. Some for example don’t want any form of self pleasure, others are fine to masturbate but just don’t want to use porn to do it.

I personally wouldn’t consider that porn but whether you feel like it warrants a reset is up to you and the goals you want for yourself

I’m now 51 days clean from porn and I can honestly say I’ve noticed real benefits. generally I feel a bit less stressed and more at peace with myself. There’s something powerful about feeling like you have regained control over your life. The foggy and depressed state I felt for the first few...

46 days porn free. Wow. A record for me since I was a teenager for sure. Whereas a few months ago I couldn’t get a decent erection even when solo and watching porn I now find I can achieve one that is firmer without any visual stimulation. After taking about a month off from all stimulation and...

I’m 31. Yes I’ve had bouts of ED in my past and a lot of it stems from performance anxiety. But I also found myself consuming increasing amounts of porn which affected the quality of my erections, both solo and with my partner, shortened my stamina and led me to develop premature ejaculation...

Really starting to feel a lot better from the decision to quit porn, and with each day it becomes easier to say no to it. i experienced a dream last night where I relapsed to porn and felt a ton of regret about it. The dream didn’t make any sense, I was in a grocery store and turned down an...

So you’re saying SSRIs helped you with erectile dysfunction? Did you have PE? I’m more open to trying another SSRI, I’m just worried about doing more damage to my psyche by going down this road. I also have read from many people that there are in fact long term effects, and I feel the Doctors...

I’m 44 days free from watching porn. I’ve noticed certainly an improvement in the overall strength of my erections, but my PE has gotten worse over time. I went 28 days with no MO and when I did it literally only took a few strokes, not even fully hard, before my brain was rushing to ejaculate...

thanks. Things are improving. A big part is my own attitude, and the longer I’ve abstained from porn the more appreciative I’m becoming. But we’ve also had some intimacy since I posted this. She’s helping me to work through my performance anxiety and I’m feeling hopeful that it will continue to...

Update — spoke to a urologist today, they can prescribe me a low dose of anti depressant and did say it’s possible they changed my Brains response to orgasm before, although it’s most likely still stress induced. Considering taking it, the biggest concern is that I’m a periodic user of...

Sounds like he’s not making the effort to change so agree you need to do what’s best for you and your future child. Every guy porn addicted or not will notice attractive women but there’s a big difference between that and ogling them or checking them out. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this...

43 days free from porn now and yesterday was the first time I was both intimate with myself and my partner for a month. It had been 28 days since any MO and I knew sex would be on the table given we were celebrating Valentine’s Day. Given that and because I didn’t want to have too much pent up...

43 days free from porn now! Never going back

I have the same issue. I’m 42 days porn free and I had gone 28 days without any MO before I decided to have a mindful masturbation session. Within seconds, before even bring fully erect, my body was rushing to ejaculate and I had to stop touching myself to avoid it happening. even slowing down...
