Been addicted to straight and gay porn for almost 10 years.

Hi. I am 21 and I have been addicted to straight and gay pornography for almost 10 years. I am at my most miserable point right now. My will power is low, but I am going to try to keep this journal and use it has a checkpoint. I am going to try to stop looking at porn and if I relapse, I will post it anyway. Please pray that I survive. Thanks.

Hey man, welcome to the forum! It is a great thing you decided to get rid of this addiction. Have you read the book "your brain on porn"? If not, you should do that, it was such an eye opener to me.
Also, Improvment pill from YT does a good job on explaining how to get rid of porn addiction.

I hope it helps you.
Stay strong!

Day #1 So today, I actually didn't think about porn or sex too much. It was a busy day so I didn't have time. Tomorrow I will probably get the urge. But I didn't look at pornography today.

Day #2 Didn't look at porn today. I did struggle a little to resist masturbation. I know this is going to become more difficult this week.

Day #3
Survived the day without viewing porn or masturbating today.

Hey brother! Canguro linked some great resources above, totally worth checking out. I’m also linking the EasyPeasy book which was a huge help to me when getting back into abstaining from PMO.

Day #5 Didn't look at porn. Came very close to full blown masturbation though. I made it another day.

Day #6 This day has been so hard. I masturbated a little (did not ejaculate) but didn't look at porn.

Day #7 I did it. I survived day 7. I didn't look at porn and it was hard as hell to resist masturbating. I edged a little but snapped out of it. Haven't ejaculated or looked at porn in 7 days!

Keep going dude! Remember there’s no such thing as just one peek. Don’t let that edge in.

Hey man, love to see the progress. I'm 22 and I have a really similar issue of watching straight/gay porn, among other 'types'. I am on day 29, and watching Dr Trish Leigh on youtube has helped me.
