I am not sure what the guidelines are for flagging a post as a possible trigger alert, but I decided to take the cautious route. It's about Pinterest. It's been my downfall so many times. I follow boards that have to do with neutral subjects like airplanes and cars, but I also followed (until...

We all have our triggers. Once we go to them, it's just about guaranteed we will go on to PMO (at least speaking for myself). I am specifically speaking of triggers in which we intentionally go to something that we trick ourselves into thinking is innocent-- for example, images of clothed women...

I have a trick I use to avoid the temptation to PMO and it may be useful to only a few of you. I am on a cocktail of doctor-prescribed sleep aids (nothing as powerful as Ambien or Lunesta-- basically we're talking about mild sedatives here). It's my goal to one day wean myself off these meds and...

I'm 66 years old and have had E.D. for about a year and a half now. Several things happened at about the same time: I was going through a very messy divorce (stress); I started taking Adderall, a known cause of E.D. in some users-- mine legally prescribed for depression, BTW; and I started...

OK, so 100% of my PMO is fetish-related. But I also have a strong desire for a non-fetish (vanilla) relationship with a real woman. Last night I had a strong urge to PMO and turned to my Pinterest board that has lots of pretty, but clothed women. Lo and behold, looking at these images actually...

I am a 66-year old porn addict who came out of a messy divorce about a year and a half ago. I have E.D., quite possibly porn-induced, but it could be due to other causes. Regardless, I need to do the full reboot. It's been a long, long time since I've had any contact with a real woman and I miss...

When an otherwise healthy 21-year old guy gets E.D. and he's been watching a lot of porn, the first guess is it's PIED. In older guys like me (I'm 66) there are more factors to consider. I've been watching quite a bit of porn since I've been single the past year and half following my second...

Stepping away from the dopamine aspects of watching porn, which I know we all are dealing with, I would like to mention a psychological effect of PMO. For those of us who have a lot of emotional baggage, like poor self-esteem, poor self-image, and fear of success, PMO is a way to return us to...

A year ago, I didn't have an addiction to internet porn. Now I do. I have been trying to figure out what's different for me this year that led me down this slippery slope. I have identified maybe a half-dozen factors, but here's one thing I think is really important: now I have Bing on my PC...

I had a relapse last night after 12 days into my first-ever reboot attempt. It has been mentioned in here that dating sites can be a trigger especially when just browsing for attractive women. So I have told myself that when I go to the couple of sites that I belong to, I will only go with the...

I am still pretty new here and am learning lots from all of you and I have tried to contributed as best I can. I wanted to pass along a constructive alternative to porn. I work nights and my usual routine was to come home, have a couple of drinks, which obviously lowered my inhibitions to view...

Hi, my name is Rich, 66 years old, and this is my first post. What an amazing group of people who are assembled here to help each other! Glad to be here. Anyway, I am just starting to figure out my reboot program, but first a little about myself.  The subject of 95% of the porn I watch is women...
