Massively broke my streak. Advice is very welcome

I’ve been addicted to porn for at least 16 years. I’m at the point where I see it as a problem and want to experience more in life than depending on PMO to feel satisfied and free of stress. Its been a little while since I felt it was a crippling addiction, but I’ll be honest; its starting to creep up on me again.

Before discovering this community, I was able to last 21 days without. Then about a couple weeks ago I started again and only lasted 7 days before breaking my streak. The pathetic thing about it is I started PMO every day since I broke my streak. I feel more than powerless. I feel weak and like there is no end to this.

Its so difficult to stay away from the temptations. Smartphones, and internet make it so easy to break my streak. Just this idea of how quickly someone can access this content is terrifying and I feel incredibly intimidated from this challenge.

Where do you all get your strength from?
Does anyone have advice for me?

I don’t know man…
Try this: Never be alone… (Doesn’t imply if you’re livin alone)… Just always be with someone when you’re using phone and internet… Never close your room’s door… Why would you close it? To change the dress? Then open the door after changing…
PS, you can close it, just don’t lock it… Worked for me…

I started listening to The Easy Peasy Way the same day you replied to me. It’s really changed things for me. The process of undoing the brainwash is incredible! Its been 5 days of no PMO and aim having a much better time than ever. Its weird when I try to figure out why it was so difficult before. Somehow this is easy and life is more enjoyable already. I know things will only get better from here. Thank you very much for recommending this to me. You’ve completely changed things for me.
