Hey man, nothing about this is easy. I know what you're going thru, I also quit drinking and it's a very difficult road to travel. And then quitting porn at the same time makes it that much harder. Keep fighting! I promise you, if you stick with it, it will get better.Day 1

Thank you for support.Hey man, nothing about this is easy. I know what you're going thru, I also quit drinking and it's a very difficult road to travel. And then quitting porn at the same time makes it that much harder. Keep fighting! I promise you, if you stick with it, it will get better.
Keep your head up brother
I appreciate the help man.Those two things aren's separate. Your porn use is part of what you feel is a broken inner life. You don't have to perfect either healing from one day to the next but you need to work on both - one step at a time- to heal I think. Maybe you start with a small goal for your life that you can hold to - something that would make you feel good - see if having some accomplishment with that helps you gain strength to resist P.
Also - if you do fail don't let yourself be dragged into such a dark hole. SO many of us have failed many times. People who've now quit for good failed many times. When you fail you have to put that behind you and take the next positive step in your life. One failure in many days is still better than failing multiple times a day. Try to learn from what happened and then remember that THIS MOMENT is the only real time you have control over. The past is already gone. Make this moment good.
I think quitting bad habits and healing your inner soul goes hand in hand . Just like how when we are starved for food eating nutritious food leads to both loss of hunger and strength to carry on both at same time .Day 3
When you don't remember what day you should be on and scroll up to check out and it says "Saturday" and you have to actually look at the calendar to know what day it is, you know you're fucked.
So I've finally figured out it's day 3. It hasn't been easy, I've been struggling more than usual, craving on day 2? When it used to take me at least 7.
For a long time I've been struggling with the idea whether I could quit porn first and then put together my shattered inner world later but... I don't know, I've been failing and failing to do the former. Which has stated to make me think whether is really possible for me to quit porn first and then heal myself later. Fuck.
I can tell you that alcohol addiction is a mean SOB to battle with. There were no hacks or tricks that I know of to stop, so I just used old-school willpower and miserable times. I still have dreams about drinking, even years later.Day 2
I've said it a thousand times: If I don't quit alcohol, I have no chance with porn. And I crave a drink like crazy alreadyTo be honest with you right now, today I don't regret becoming a porn addict, I regret becoming an alcoholic. Without this fuckin shit, I would've had a lot more success with porn, even broken as I am.
I appreciate the support nevertheless. Don't worry about it. Thanks.I can tell you that alcohol addiction is a mean SOB to battle with.

But it does get better. I promise. Keep fighting and hang in there.
I wish I had more encouraging words to say, but that's all I got.
