I began my journey to free myself from this addiction. But I wonder:

Do I need to read and apply all the findable tips I can find on sites to restart and be free of this addiction?

I wonder because I found around a hundred tips and I wondered if everything is good to take or if it is better for me to appropriate my trip.
In fact, when I read all the advice, I feel like I’m ignoring everything about my addiction, and that seems more difficult to me because I may not be aware of everything, and I get a little lost.

Here I wish you all a wonderful reboot and the best possible life dear friends!

i would suggest a few things about recovering, which comes from abstaining from porn use, masturbation, orgasm for awhile, and fantasy. if you want to try and add in other things to speed up recovery go for it. but really all you need to do is abstain 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
