Need Advice on Quitting Porn

[devdevy Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close devdevy]

So, I decided to quit porn about 2 months ago and in those 2 months i haven't cum to porn or even watched porn. I have noticed that although I've always had a more positive outlook on life, since quitting porn, i feel even happier. I have better eq, my dick hangs longer, hornier, etc.


Also, when i edge I've been trying to only use my imagination. However, I have had really horny days where i looked up pictures of clothed girls, naked girls, watched sex scenes without getting hard or even edging to them. I guess my brain's just trying to get that rush like it used to get with porn.


When i think about porn, i don't even really feel tempted to watch anymore. Its Weird but it's also great. Now these last couple of weeks i have started edging a couple times to pics, and even nutted to a sex scene. Don't know if that's considered a relapse or not.
Anyways, Even though thinking about porn doesn't really make me excited anymore, I can see myself rationalizing going from a clothed pic to a naked one to a sex scene until eventually just saying "fuck it, watching one quick porn cant hurt, right?"


I'm even at the point where I'm looking up videos like nude yoga and shit during my free time. I'm not in a relationship which makes this whole thing tougher. Another thing that probably doesn't help is that I edge 3-4 times a week and only cum once a week.
Im willing to do whatever it is that needs to be done in order to retrain my mind and dick and if that means I can't edge to anything besides my imagination or I shouldn't be spending my free time looking up (non-sexual) videos of naked women, then I'll stop despite how hard it might be. Is that what i should do?

That's porn, its all porn, even the news homepage has clickbait that is porn, it all leads down the path to addiction and oblivion..

Yes avoid the porno substitutes also. At least for 90 days. Try to rely on your imagination only. Well that and getting out and meeting people.

i've been no porn for a couple years now but i still edge to videos of girls twerking and shit. imo it's pretty harmless watching videos of girls or looking at pictures. i've had great results and still maintain a good EQ and a healthy view of sex and what not BUT i'm not YOU and you have to figure out what you need to do personally

I guess only cumming once a week also isn't helping me lol. I feel like its helping my dick to grow.
Anyways, I have another question. When i edge, what should i be fantasizing about? Currently, when i just use my imagination, I'll imagine I'm fucking a girl i saw in a store or some actress/model. I'll think about how good my dick feels and also think about the girl's body and how beautiful she looks. Is there anything wroong with that?

Stamina training should be done with paying maximum attention to your "visualizations". This is NOT a reference to sexual fantasizing, but to projecting the type of emotions you wish to have during actual sexual encounters. You'll want to project a feeling of utmost confidence and being completely unencumbered. That way, you can focus on all of the sensations of the exercise. By doing this, when you do have live sexual encounters your emotions will be "trained", and the stimulus of a live environment will help you enjoy the experience even more.

You must make sure you approach your training and sexual activity with at least a neutral mindset.

When you begin the exercise or feel feelings of anxiety coming on, clear your mind. Sometimes, picturing something neutral or a field of white light can be useful. Focus solely on the tactile sensations you're inducing. At the same time. attempt to emote a feeling of confidence and being unencumbered. if your mind starts to drift then take a deep breath and re-center yourself.

This is something which may take some getting used to, but once you turn the corner on this procedure you'll realize the great benefits to be had.

No, thank you. You have done a lot to further PE, and I have learned a lot from you.

Find a new hobby that will distract you from the urge to view porn. After getting into cryptocurrecy, I haven't had any time for porn due to being glued to the markets. The only downside is that I've aged ten times since last week.

That is a good point...seems to me that PE is a great substitute for porn.

I do a little bit of adult surfing. Fetish related. I usually do not view videos of porn, but will search out celebrity feet pictures or similar. It was a 20 or 30 minute over lunch at computer kind of habit. Since starting PE I have pretty much ended that. I spend my idle lunch hour time here on the 'Gym.
