I have been trying to quit for two years, and for the first time I know this site and this community, and I hope that this community will be one of the reasons for quitting _ God willing _.
I think that the battle here is a battle of awareness. The more you learn about the nature of addiction, its causes, and observing its results, the more you will have the ability to confront it.
In my opinion, the religious aspect is important, so we must ask God to help us, for He is capable of everything. But we must strive for this is the nature of life.
I apologize for grammatical errors.

i would suggest a few things about recovering, which comes from abstaining from porn use, masturbation, orgasm for awhile, and fantasy.

1. put up a very strong boundary so you cant use.
- you can do this with a strong blocker like Covenant Eyes, details in my signature below. this will give you accountability with someone who sees your search history, and blocks P and any other site you want it to block.

2. you stay super busy
- incorporate exercise regularly into your life. theres a study that was done on drug addicts that showed dopamine receptor density increase several times faster with those who exercised compared to those who abstained alone. Also, improve yourself with other hobbies, passions, etc.

3. Psychologically learn how to cope with the intense urges to use again when they come.
-developing a healthy thought pattern when urges comes removes their power over your mind. journaling also gives you information on when your cravings kick in (at a certain time of day, a certain number of days into abstinence etc)

4. Educate yourself
-reading success stories, read articles on yourbrainonporn.com, pmoflatline and others, watch videos from Gabe etc)

good luck friend
