Can you give me some new tools when craving comes?

How can we not give in to the craving for p?
I am on day 3 now and it's difficult for me.

Things like cold showers etc

Thanks in advance

The general rule is make yourself busy with productive tasks: exercise, read, as you mentioned cold shower every morning, go out regularly - as soon as strong urge comes call your friend and go out.

Another approach is almost the opposite: turn your full attention to the bodily sensations of sexual craving. Observe them,stay with them, breath with them, befriend them. This is known as a 'mindfulness' or 'pure awareness' of what is actually happening in the now. Read this - especially the bit about Buddhism from which mindfulness has emerged as a tool in tackling addiction. It does work because I have used and it really helped.

The other thing I did was read up on YourBrainOn Porn every day for thirty days and I kept a diary. Use what works. You will probably need to use more than one approach anyway.
