The Easy Peasy Way To Quit ๐–ฏ๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡

Will it be harder for me?

Reading Time: 2 minutes

There are infinite combinations of factors determining how easily each individual user will quit. To start with, each of us has our own character, career, personal circumstances, timing, metabolism, etc. Certain professions may make it harder than others, but providing the brainwashing is removed, this doesnโ€™t have to be so. Take the following few examples.

Occasionally, it is difficult for members of the medical profession. We think it should be easier for doctors because theyโ€™re more aware of the effects, but although this supplies more forceful reasons for stopping, it doesnโ€™t make it any easier to accomplish. The reasons are as follows:

  1. The constant awareness of the health risks creates fear, one of the conditions under which we feel the need to relieve withdrawal pangs.
  2. A doctorโ€™s work is exceedingly stressful and theyโ€™re usually unable to relieve the additional stress of withdrawal pangs while working.
  3. They have the additional stress of guilt, feeling that they should be setting an example for the rest of the population. This puts more pressure on them and increases the feeling of deprivation.

After a hard day at work when their stress is momentarily relieved by p๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, that session becomes incorrectly attached to the relief experienced. Because of this misassociation of ideas, p๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ gets credit for the whole situation, suddenly becoming very precious upon quitting and going through withdrawal pangs. This is a form of casual user and applies to any situation where the user is forced to abstain for lengthy periods. Under the willpower method, the user is miserable because theyโ€™re being deprived and not enjoying the tiredness and sleep that comes after a session. Their sense of loss is greatly increased. However, if you can first remove the brainwashing and moping regarding ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, the break and sleep can still be enjoyed even while the body is craving the amine transmitters โ€” serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine.

Another difficult situation is boredom, particularly when combined with periods of stress. Typical examples are students and single parents, work being stressful yet monotonous. During an attempt to stop on the willpower method, the single person has long periods in which to mope about their โ€˜lossโ€™, which in turn increases feelings of depression. Again, this can be easily overcome if your frame of mind is correct. Donโ€™t worry that youโ€™re continually reminded that youโ€™ve stopped ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Use such moments to rejoice in the fact youโ€™re ridding yourself of the evil monster.

If you have a positive frame of mind these pangs will become moments of pleasure. Remember, any user, regardless of age, sex, intelligence or profession can find it easy and enjoyable to stop provided you follow all the instructions.

24.1 Primary Reasons for Failure

Reading Time: 2 minutes

There are two primary reasons for failure. The first being the influence of external stimuli โ€” a commercial, online news article, internet browsing, etc. They find themselves in a weak moment, or even become jealous when seeing intimacy in social scenarios. This topic has already been discussed at length. Use the moment to remind yourself thereโ€™s no such thing as one visit or peek. Rejoice in the fact that youโ€™ve broken the chain of mental slavery. Remember that the user envies you and you should feel pity for them, for they need it.

The other reason is having a bad day. Get it clear in your mind before you start, that whether youโ€™re a user or not you will have good and bad days. It rains for both the pope and the murderer. Life is relative and you canโ€™t have ups without downs. The issue with the willpower method is that as soon as the user has a bad day, they begin moping for a visit to the โ€˜haremโ€™, which further compounds the issue. The non-user is better equipped to handle stresses and strains, not only physically but mentally. If you have a bad day during the withdrawal period just take it on the chin; remind yourself that bad days existed when you were addicted, otherwise you wouldnโ€™t have decided to stop. Instead of moping about it, recognise it instead: โ€œOkay, so todayโ€™s not so good but ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ wonโ€™t cure it. Tomorrow will be better and at least Iโ€™ve got a marvellous bonus, Iโ€™ve kicked that awful addiction.โ€

When youโ€™re a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ user, you have to block your mind to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡โ€™s negatives. Users never have brain fog, theyโ€™re just โ€˜a bit downโ€™. When youโ€™re having lifeโ€™s inevitable troubles and you experience a thought of wanting ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, are you happy and cheerful? Of course you arenโ€™t. Once you stop, the tendency is blaming everything that goes wrong on the fact youโ€™ve stopped.

If work stresses you out, you think, โ€œAt times like this I wouldโ€™ve had a session.โ€ This is true, but the important thing thatโ€™s forgotten is that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ didnโ€™t solve the problem, and youโ€™re simply punishing yourself by moping for illusory crutches. Youโ€™re creating an impossible situation, miserable because you canโ€™t masturbate to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, yet youโ€™ll be even more miserable if you do. You know that youโ€™ve made the correct decision by stopping it, so why punish yourself by doubting your decision?

Remember, a positive mental approach is essential โ€” always.

  • Individual Factors: Quitting ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ varies for each person due to factors like personality, career, personal circumstances, metabolism, etc.

  • Medical Professionals: Despite their knowledge of the health risks, doctors may find it challenging to quit due to the stress of their profession, guilt, and misassociation of ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ with stress relief.

  • Misassociation of Ideas: Users may wrongly attribute relief from stress to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, making it seem more valuable during withdrawal.

  • Casual Users: Those who use ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ to relieve stress may find it harder to quit because they associate it with relaxation.

  • Boredom and Stress: Boredom and stress can exacerbate feelings of deprivation and depression during quitting attempts, especially for students or single parents.

  • Positive Mindset: Having the right mindset can turn withdrawal pangs into moments of pleasure and make quitting enjoyable regardless of age, sex, intelligence, or profession, as long as the instructions are followed.

  • External Stimuli Influence: External triggers like commercials, online articles, or social scenarios can weaken resolve. Remind yourself that thereโ€™s no such thing as โ€œjust one visitโ€ and rejoice in breaking free from mental slavery.

  • Dealing with Bad Days: Understand that everyone, whether a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ user or not, experiences good and bad days. The key is not to let a bad day derail your progress. Instead, acknowledge it and focus on the positives of quitting.

  • Avoiding Negative Associations: As a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ user, itโ€™s easy to overlook the negative effects of ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and blame all problems on quitting. Recognize that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ didnโ€™t solve issues before and moping for it now only creates more misery.

  • Positive Mindset: Maintain a positive attitude throughout the quitting process, focusing on the benefits of quitting rather than dwelling on temporary setbacks.

  • Recognizing Illusory Crutches: Even when faced with stress or difficulties, remember that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ was never a true solution. Moping for it now only perpetuates a cycle of misery.

  • Avoiding Self-Punishment: Doubting your decision to quit only punishes yourself unnecessarily. Remind yourself of the reasons why you chose to quit and stay committed to your decision.

  • Embracing Positivity: Adopting a positive mental approach is crucial at every step of the journey. Focus on the freedom and benefits of quitting rather than dwelling on past habits or temporary struggles.

Substitutes

Reading Time: 8.5 minutes

Some examples of substitutes include restricting to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ magazines, static internet images, ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ diets, etc. DO NOT USE ANY OF THEM. They make it harder, not easier. If you do get a pang and use a substitute it will just prolong the pang, making it harder. What youโ€™re really saying is that you need ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ to fill the void. Itโ€™ll be like giving in to a hijacker or a childโ€™s tantrum, just keeping the pangs coming and prolonging torture. In any event, the substitutes wonโ€™t relieve the pangs. Your craving is for certain neurotransmitters in the brain, and all itโ€™ll do is keep you thinking about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Remember these points:

  1. Thereโ€™s no substitute for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.
  2. You donโ€™t need ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Itโ€™s not food, itโ€™s poison. When the pangs come, remind yourself that itโ€™s users who suffer withdrawal pangs, not non-users. See them for what they are, another evil of the drug. See them as the death of a monster.
  3. Internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ creates the void; it doesnโ€™t fill it. The quicker you teach your brain that you donโ€™t need to watch, the sooner youโ€™ll be free. In particular, avoid anything that resembles ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, such as menโ€™s magazines, movies, romance novels, and commercials. This isnโ€™t being closed-minded, itโ€™s okay to talk romance and sex, but not ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. There is always a way to find when and where to discriminate. Itโ€™s true that a small proportion of users who attempt to quit using softcore ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ or ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ diets do succeed (from their own perspectives), and attribute their success to such use. However, they quit in spite of their use and not because of it. Itโ€™s unfortunate that many still recommend these measures.

This is unsurprising because if you donโ€™t fully understand the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ trap, a diet or soft substitute sounds very logical. Itโ€™s based on the belief that when you attempt to quit ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, you have two powerful enemies to defeat:

  • Breaking the habit.
  • Surviving terrible physical withdrawal pangs.

If you have two powerful enemies to defeat, itโ€™s sensible to not fight them simultaneously, but one at a time. So the theory goes that when you first stop using ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, you cut down to once a week or use safe ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Then once the habit is broken, gradually reduce the supply, thus tackling each enemy separately.

This sounds logical, but is based on incorrect information. P๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ isnโ€™t habit, but dopamine addiction, and the actual physical pain from withdrawal is almost imperceptible. What youโ€™re trying to achieve when quitting is killing both the monsters in your body and brain as quickly as possible. All substitution techniques do is prolong the little monsterโ€™s life, and in turn this prolongs the brainwashing. EasyPeasy makes it easy to quit immediately, killing the brainwashing before your final session. The little monster will soon be dead, and even while itโ€™s dying, itโ€™ll be no more of a problem than it was when you were a user.

Just think, how can you possibly cure addiction to a drug through recommending the same drug? There are many stories online about those whoโ€™ve quit using hardcore internet โ– โ– โ– โ– , but are hooked on โ€˜safeโ€™ alternatives, having fallen for their little monsterโ€™s justifications. Donโ€™t be fooled by the fact that the safe ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ isnโ€™t awful โ€” so was that first high-speed clip. All substitutes have exactly the same effects as any ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Some even begin eating, but although the empty feeling of wanting a session is indistinguishable from hunger for food, one wonโ€™t satisfy the other. In fact, if thereโ€™s anything thatโ€™s designed to make you want ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, itโ€™s stuffing yourself with food. As previously explained, ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ diets and safe ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ will only put you in the middle of the tug-of-war, with resistance to temptation being so annoying that youโ€™ll feel relieved visiting your favorite online harem.

The chief evil of substitutes is prolonging the real problem, brainwashing. Do you need a substitute for the flu when itโ€™s over? Of course you donโ€™t. By saying you need a substitute for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, what youโ€™re really saying that youโ€™re making a sacrifice. The depression associated with the willpower method is caused by the fact that the user believes theyโ€™re making a sacrifice. All youโ€™ll be doing is substituting one problem for another. Thereโ€™s no pleasure in stuffing yourself with food, cigarettes or alcohol. Youโ€™ll just get fat, miserable and in no time at all youโ€™ll be back on the drug.

Casual users find it difficult to dismiss the belief theyโ€™re being deprived of their little reward, like those who arenโ€™t allowed to go online during a period of time during travel, a family event, etc. Some say, โ€œI wouldnโ€™t know how to unwind if it werenโ€™t for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.โ€ That proves the point โ€” often the break is taken not because the user needs or even wants it, but because the addict โ€” which is what they are โ€” desperately needs to scratch the itch.

Remember, the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ sessions were never genuine rewards. They were equivalent to wearing tight shoes in order to feel the pleasure of taking them off. So if you feel that you must have a little reward, let that be your substitute; while youโ€™re working wear shoes or underwear a size too small, and donโ€™t allow yourself to remove them until you have your break, then experience the wonderful moment of relaxation and satisfaction when theyโ€™re removed. Perhaps you feel that would be rather stupid. Youโ€™re absolutely right. It can be difficult to visualise whilst still in the trap, but thatโ€™s what users do. Itโ€™s also hard to visualise that soon you wonโ€™t need that little โ€˜rewardโ€™ and that youโ€™ll soon regard friends who are still in the trap with genuine pity and wonder why they cannot see the point.

However, if you continue kidding yourself that the online harem visit was a genuine reward, or that you need a substitute, youโ€™ll feel deprived and miserable. The chances are that youโ€™ll end up falling into the disgusting trap again. If you need a genuine break as housewives, teachers, doctors, and other workers do, youโ€™ll soon be enjoying that break even more because you wonโ€™t have to addict yourself. Remember that you donโ€™t need a substitute. The pangs are a craving for dopamine and will soon be gone. Let that be your prop for the next few days and enjoy ridding your body and mind of slavery and dependence.

  1. Avoid Substitutes:

    • Do not use substitutes like ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ magazines, static internet images, or ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ diets. They prolong the addiction and make quitting harder.
  2. Understanding Withdrawal:

    • Cravings are for neurotransmitters (dopamine), not for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ itself. Substitutes keep you thinking about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and do not relieve cravings.
  3. No Safe P๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡:

    • Avoid anything resembling ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, such as menโ€™s magazines, certain movies, romance novels, and certain commercials. These keep the addiction alive.
  4. Breaking Myths About Quitting:

    • Quitting ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ isnโ€™t about breaking a habit but about overcoming a dopamine addiction. The actual physical withdrawal pain is minimal.
  5. Ineffectiveness of Gradual Reduction:

    • Gradual reduction or use of โ€œsafe ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡โ€ only prolongs the addiction. The goal is to kill both the physical and mental aspects of addiction quickly.
  6. Fallacy of Substitutes:

    • Substitutes for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ (even food) do not address the addiction and can lead to other issues like overeating. They make it harder to quit by maintaining the mental association with ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.
  7. Real Rewards vs. Illusory Rewards:

    • P๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ sessions were never genuine rewards but rather temporary relief from created discomfort. Genuine breaks and rewards should not involve substitutes.
  8. Positive Mindset:

    • Maintain a positive mindset and see cravings as part of the addictionโ€™s end. Rejoice in the freedom from addiction instead of feeling deprived.utes
  9. Long-Term Freedom:

    • Realize that you will not need substitutes soon and will enjoy genuine breaks and relaxation more without the burden of addiction.

Should I Avoid Temptation Situations

Reading Time: 5.5 minutes

The advice has been direct so far and has asked you to treat it as instruction rather than suggestion. There are sound, practical reasons for this advice and those reasons have been backed up by thousands of case studies. On the question of whether or not to try and avoid temptation, this isnโ€™t the case. Each user will need to decide for themselves. However, two helpful suggestions can be made to assist you through this process. Itโ€™s fear of future withdrawal pangs that keeps us using ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ for the remainder of our lives and this fear consists of two distinct phases.

Phase One - โ€œHow can I survive without ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡?โ€

This fear is the panicky feeling the user gets when theyโ€™re single or have an asexual, uninterested or unavailable partner. The fear isnโ€™t caused by withdrawal pangs but is the psychological fear of dependency, of being unable to survive without sex and orgasm. It peaks when on the verge of quitting, when your withdrawal pangs are at their lowest. Itโ€™s the fear of the unknown, the sort of fear that people have when theyโ€™re learning to dive.

The diving board is one foot high but appears to be six feet high. The water is six feet deep but appears to be one foot deep. It takes courage to launch yourself, convinced youโ€™re going to smash your head. The launching is the hardest part, if you find the courage to do it โ€” the rest is easy! This explains why many strong-willed users have never attempted to stop, or can survive for only a few days when they do. In fact, there are some users on ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ diets who, upon deciding to stop, actually binge and escalate to harsher clips more quickly than if they hadnโ€™t decided to stop. The decision causes panic, which is stressful and triggers a cue to take a trip to the harem. But now you canโ€™t have one, leading to thoughts of deprivation, compounding stress.

The trigger activates quickly when the fuse blows and you fire up the browser. Donโ€™t worry, the panic is just psychological. Itโ€™s the fear that youโ€™re dependent. The beautiful truth is that you arenโ€™t, even when still addicted. Donโ€™t panic and launch yourself.

Phase Two - Longer Term Fear

The second phase is long-term, involving fear that certain situations in the future wonโ€™t be enjoyable or you wonโ€™t be able to cope with trauma without ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Donโ€™t worry, if you can launch yourself, youโ€™ll find the opposite to be the case. The avoidance of temptation itself falls into two categories.

  1. โ€œIโ€™ll subscribe to a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ diet of once in four days. Iโ€™ll feel more confident knowing I can go online if it gets difficult. If I fail itโ€™s okay, Iโ€™ll just add additional days to my next cycle.โ€The failure rate with people doing this is far higher than those quitting altogether. This is mainly due to the fact that if youโ€™re having a bad moment during the withdrawal period, itโ€™s easy to hop on the browser and visit the harem with the above excuses. If you have the indignity of clearly breaking your own rules like a shattered glass window, youโ€™re more likely to overcome the temptation. In any event, the pang would probably already have passed if youโ€™d delayed it. However, the main reason for the high failure rate in these cases is that the user didnโ€™t feel completely committed to stopping in the first place. Remember the two essentials to succeed are:
  • Certainty.
  • โ€œIsnโ€™t it marvellous that I donโ€™t need ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ anymore?โ€In either case, why on earth do you need a session? If you still need to visit your harem, re-read the book first. Something hasnโ€™t quite gelled. Take the time to kill the big brainwashing monster in your mind stone-dead.
  1. โ€œShould I avoid stressful or social occasions during the withdrawal period?โ€In the case of stressful situations, yes. Thereโ€™s no sense putting undue pressure on yourself. In the case of social events, like bars or clubs, the advice is the reverse. Go out and enjoy yourself straight away! You donโ€™t need sex or the propagative side of sex even while youโ€™re addicted to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Go out and rejoice in the fact that you donโ€™t have to have sex or propagative sex, itโ€™ll quickly prove to you the beautiful truth that life is so much better without these pressures. Just think of how much better it will be when the little monster has left you, together with those needy thoughts.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

  1. Fear of Future Withdrawal Pangs:

    • Phase One - Immediate Fear:
      • This fear arises when thinking about surviving without ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, especially if single or with an uninterested partner.
      • Itโ€™s a psychological fear, not due to withdrawal pangs, but due to perceived dependency.
      • The hardest part is the initial launch into quitting, similar to diving off a board. Courage to start makes the rest easier.
    • Phase Two - Long-term Fear:
      • This fear concerns future situations being less enjoyable or harder to cope with without ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.
      • The reality is that life improves without ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, even in stressful or social situations.
  2. Avoiding Temptation:

    • Category One: Gradual Reduction Approach:
      • Trying to reduce ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ use gradually (e.g., a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ diet) often leads to higher failure rates.
      • This method creates a psychological safety net, making it easier to relapse during weak moments.
      • Success requires total commitment and certainty, rather than partial measures.
    • Category Two: Social and Stressful Situations:
      • Stressful Situations: Avoid undue stress during the initial withdrawal period.
      • Social Events: Engage in social activities right away to celebrate freedom from ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and enjoy life without the pressure of needing a session.

Summary:
Fear of withdrawal, both immediate and long-term, can keep users hooked on ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. However, this fear is largely psychological. Facing and overcoming the initial fear of quitting is crucial. Avoid gradual reduction methods and fully commit to quitting. Avoid unnecessary stress, but donโ€™t shy away from social events; enjoying these moments without the need for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ will reinforce the benefits of a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡-free life.

The Moment of Revelation

Reading Time: 6 minutes

Usually within three weeks post-escape, ex-users experience the moment of revelation. The sky appears to become brighter and itโ€™s the moment when the brainwashing ends completely. When instead of telling yourself you donโ€™t need to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, you suddenly realise that the last thread is broken and you can enjoy the rest of your life without ever needing it again. Itโ€™s also from this point that you usually start looking at users as objects of pity.

Quitters using the willpower method donโ€™t normally experience this moment because although theyโ€™re glad to be ex-users, they continue moving through life believing theyโ€™re making a sacrifice. The more you were addicted, the more marvellous this moment is, and it lasts a lifetime. While there are many joys in life, itโ€™s impossible to recapture the actual feeling of experiencing them. The joy of not having to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ anymore is different, if feeling low and needing a boost, remind yourself of how lovely it is not to be hooked on that awful addiction. Many list it as one of the greatest events of their lives. In most cases, the moment of revelation takes place not after three weeks, but after a few days.

In my own case, it happened before finishing my last harem visit. Iโ€™m sure many of the readers here, before theyโ€™d even got to the end of the chapters would say something like โ€œYou neednโ€™t say another word. I can see it all so clearly, Iโ€™ll know Iโ€™ll never need ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ again.โ€ Based on feedback received, this happens frequently. Ideally, if you follow all the instructions and understand the psychology completely, it should happen to you immediately.

While itโ€™s stated that it takes around five days for noticeable physical withdrawal to go, and about three weeks for an ex-user to get completely free, such guidelines can cause two problems. The first being that the suggestion is implanted in peopleโ€™s minds that theyโ€™ll have to suffer for between five days and three weeks. The second is that the ex-user tends to think โ€œIf I can survive for five days or three weeks, I can expect a real boost at the end of that period.โ€

However, they may have five pleasant days or three pleasant weeks then followed by disastrous days that strike everyone, which have nothing to do with addiction but are caused by other factors in our lives. Then our ex-user whoโ€™s waiting for the moment of revelation experiences depression instead. It could destroy their confidence. By the same token, if there were no guidelines, the ex-user could spend the rest of their life waiting for nothing to happen. This is what happens to the vast majority of those who stop using the willpower method.

People often ask about the significance of the five days and three weeks. Are they just periods drawn out of the blue? No, while they arenโ€™t definite dates they reflect an accumulation of feedback from over the years. About five days after stopping is when the ex-user ceases to have the addiction as the main occupation of their mind. Most ex-users experience revelation around this period, generally in stressful or social situations that at one point they werenโ€™t able to cope with or werenโ€™t enjoyable without a harem visit. You suddenly realise that not only are you enjoying or coping with it, but the thought of ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ has never even occurred to you. From that point itโ€™s usually plain sailing. Thatโ€™s when you know youโ€™re free.

Itโ€™s both mine and the experience of many others attempting to stop using the willpower method that around the three week period is when most serious attempts to stop fail. What usually happens is that after about three weeks you sense youโ€™ve lost the desire to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. You need to prove this to yourself, so you hop on the browser to visit your harem. It feels weird, proving youโ€™ve kicked it. But in the process youโ€™re greased the DeltaFosB water slide thanks to the fresh dopamine rush, what your body has been craving for the last three weeks. As soon as you finish the deed, the dopamine starts to leave your body. A little voice reappears, โ€œYou havenโ€™t kicked it, you want another one.โ€

You donโ€™t scurry back right away because you donโ€™t want to get hooked again, allowing a safe period to pass. When youโ€™re next tempted youโ€™re able to say to yourself โ€œWell, I didnโ€™t get hooked again, so thereโ€™s no harm in having another one.โ€ Youโ€™re already on your way down the slippery slope. The key to the problem isnโ€™t waiting for the moment of revelation, but to realise that once you close the browser itโ€™s finished. Youโ€™ve cut off the supply of oxygen to your little monster. No force on Earth can prevent you from being free, unless you mope about it or wait for revelation. Go and enjoy life; cope with it right from the start. The moment will soon arrive.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

  1. Experience of Revelation:

    • Usually occurs within three weeks of quitting, but can happen sooner.
    • Itโ€™s the moment when the brainwashing ends, and the individual realizes they no longer need ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.
    • This moment is often described as one of the greatest events in a personโ€™s life, providing a profound sense of freedom and relief.
  2. Willpower Method vs. EasyPeasy:

    • Those using the willpower method often do not experience this revelation because they believe they are making a sacrifice.
    • EasyPeasy users, who understand the psychology behind their addiction, can experience this moment more quickly and thoroughly.
  3. Psychological Barriers and Expectations:

    • Guidelines suggesting it takes five days to feel better or three weeks to be free can create mental barriers.
    • These timelines can lead to false expectations, causing disappointment if the revelation doesnโ€™t happen exactly as anticipated.
  4. Significance of Five Days and Three Weeks:

    • These periods are based on accumulated feedback, not arbitrary numbers.
    • Around five days, the addiction stops being the main focus of the mind.
    • By three weeks, many ex-users feel a significant reduction in the desire to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, though this can lead to overconfidence and potential relapse if not careful.
  5. Avoiding Relapse:

    • The real key to quitting is not waiting for the moment of revelation but understanding that the addiction ends as soon as the browser is closed for the last time.
    • Itโ€™s crucial not to test oneself by checking if the desire is still there, as this can restart the addiction cycle.
  6. Living Without P๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡:

    • Embrace life without ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ from the start, without waiting for a specific moment of revelation.
    • Enjoying and coping with life naturally will reinforce the benefits of quitting and make the transition smoother.

By following these points, the journey to quitting ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ becomes clearer and more achievable. Understanding that the moment of revelation is both a significant and attainable milestone can provide the necessary motivation and perspective to break free from addiction permanently.

The Final Visit

Reading Time: 8.5 minutes

Having decided on timing, youโ€™re now ready to visit your harem one last time. Before you do so, check on the two essentials.

  1. Do you feel certain of success?
  2. Do you have a feeling of doom and gloom, or a sense of excitement that youโ€™re about to achieve something marvellous?

If you have any doubts, re-read the book first. Remember that you never decided to fall into the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ trap, but the trap is designed to enslave you for life. In order to escape, you need to make the positive decision that youโ€™re about to stop and to make your final visit.

Remember, the only reason youโ€™ve read this book so far is because youโ€™d dearly love to escape. So make that positive decision now, making a solemn vow that when you close your private browser window, whether finding it easy or difficult, youโ€™ll never visit your harem again. Perhaps youโ€™re worried that youโ€™ve made this vow several times in the past and are still failing, or that youโ€™ll have to go through awful trauma. Have no fear, the worst thing that can possibly happen is that you fail, so therefore you have absolutely nothing to lose and so much to gain.

But stop even thinking about failure โ€” the beautiful truth is that itโ€™s not only ridiculously easy to quit, you can actually enjoy the process. This time youโ€™re going to use EasyPeasy! All you need to do is follow the simple instructions about to be given.

  1. Make the solemn vow now and mean it.
  2. Browse the pictures and clips on your favorite tube site consciously, looking at the desperate attempts by the site administrators, actors and even amateurs to amplify the shock, novelty and supernormal nature of their wares and ask yourself where the pleasure is.
  3. When you finally close the browser, donโ€™t do so with a feeling of โ€œI must never visit another online harem againโ€ or โ€œIโ€™m not allowed to visit anotherโ€ but instead with a feeling of freedom, like โ€œIsnโ€™t it great? Iโ€™m free! Iโ€™m no longer a slave to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡! I donโ€™t ever have to visit these filthy sites in my life again.โ€
  4. Be aware that for a few days, thereโ€™ll be a little ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ saboteur inside your stomach. You might only be aware of the feeling of wanting a session. The little ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ monster has been referred to as the slight physical craving for dopamine. Strictly speaking this is incorrect, and itโ€™s important to understand why. Because it takes up to three weeks for that little monster to die, ex-users believe the little monster will continue to crave after the final online harem visit, and therefore they must use willpower to resist the temptation during this period. This isnโ€™t so, the body doesnโ€™t crave ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡-triggered dopamine; only the brain craves.

If you do get that feeling of wanting a peek over the next few days, your brain has a simple choice. It can either interpret that feeling for what it actually is โ€” an empty, insecure feeling started by the first visit to an online ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ site and further perpetuated by each subsequent one, and saying to yourself โ€œYIPPEE! Iโ€™M A NON-USER!โ€

Or, you can start craving for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and suffer for the remainder of your life. Just think for a moment, wouldnโ€™t that be an incredibly stupid thing to do? To say, โ€œI never want to watch โ– โ– โ– โ–  againโ€ and then spending the rest of your life saying โ€œIโ€™d love a visitโ€? Thatโ€™s what those using the willpower method do, and itโ€™s no wonder they feel so miserable. Spending the rest of their lives desperately moping for something they desperately hope theyโ€™ll never have. No wonder that so few succeed and the few that do never feel completely free.

โ€™Get this mental picture clearly in your mind, for it can be quite helpful in overcoming the power of external stimuli to disturb you. See yourself sitting quietly, letting the phone ring, ignoring its signal, unmoved by its command. Although you are aware of it, you no longer mind or obey it. Also, get clearly in your mind the fact that the outside signal in itself has no power over you, no power to move you. In the past you have obeyed it, responded to it, purely out of habit. You can, if you wish, form a new habit of not responding.

โ€™Also notice that your failure to respond does not consist in doing something, or making an effort, or resisting or fighting, but in doing nothing โ€” in relaxation from doing. You merely relax, ignore the signal, and let its summons go unheeded. The telephone ringing is a symbolic analogy to any and every other outside stimulus you might habitually give control over to and now choose to very intentionally alter that habit.โ€™

โ€” Maxwell Maltz, The New Psycho Cybernetics Ch. 12.

Itโ€™s only doubting and waiting that makes it difficult to quit, so never doubt your decision because you know itโ€™s the correct one. If you begin to doubt it, youโ€™ll put yourself in a no-win situation. Miserable while craving a visit, but unable to have one. No matter what system you are using, what are you trying to achieve when quitting ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡? Never to watch again? No! Many ex-users do that but go through the rest of their lives feeling deprived.

Whatโ€™s the difference between users and non-users? Non-users havenโ€™t any need, nor desire to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, theyโ€™re without craving and donโ€™t need to exercise willpower in order to not watch it. Thatโ€™s what youโ€™re trying to achieve and itโ€™s completely within your power to do so. You donโ€™t have to wait to stop craving ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ or become a non-user, itโ€™s completed the moment you close that final browser window, cutting off the supply of dopamine. YOU ARE ALREADY A HAPPY NON-USER!

Youโ€™ll remain a happy non-user provided:

  1. You never doubt your decision.
  2. You donโ€™t wait to become a non-user. If you do, youโ€™ll merely be waiting for nothing to happen and creating a phobia.
  3. You donโ€™t try not to think about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ or wait for the โ€˜moment of revelationโ€™ to come, creating a phobia.
  4. You donโ€™t use substitutes.
  5. You see all the other users as they really are and pity them rather than envying them.

Whether theyโ€™re good or bad days, donโ€™t change your life just because youโ€™ve quit. If you do, youโ€™ll be making a genuine sacrifice when thereโ€™s no need to. Remember, you havenโ€™t given up living. You havenโ€™t given up anything. On the contrary, youโ€™ve cured yourself from an awful disease and escaped from an insidious prison. As days pass and your health โ€” both physically and mentally โ€” improves, the highs will appear higher and the lows less low than when you were a user. Whenever you think about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ during the next few days or the rest of your life, think:

โ€œYIPPEE! Iโ€™M A NON-USER!โ€

28.1 A Final Warning

Reading Time: 2 minutes

No user, if given the chance of going back to the time before they became hooked, with the knowledge they have now, would opt to start. Tens of thousands who successfully kick the habit for many years lead perfectly happy lives, only to get trapped once again. I trust this book will help you to find it relatively easy to stop. But be warned, users who find it easy to stop find it just as easy to start again. Do not fall for this trap.

No matter how long youโ€™ve stopped for or how confident you are never going to become hooked again, make it a rule for life not to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ for any reason. Resist the allusions and innuendos in the media, and remember how theyโ€™re pushing their image of โ€˜opennessโ€™ by bringing ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ into the mainstream, unaware that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and compulsive masturbation are killers of relationships and of the personal sense of well-being for a huge number of men and increasing numbers of women.

Remember that that first peek or visit will do nothing for you. Youโ€™ll have no withdrawal pangs to relieve and it will make you feel awful. What it will do is put the pleasure of the dopamine rush into your mind and brain, and a little voice at the back of your mind will be telling you that you want other one. Then youโ€™ve got the choice of being miserable for a while, or starting the whole filthy chain again.

  • It will only reinforce the dopamine rush and lead to cravings for more, starting the cycle again.

The war isnโ€™t against users, but the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡-industry trap, and itโ€™s waged for the simple reason that I enjoy waging it. Every time I hear about a user escaping from the prison I get a feeling of immense pleasure. But this pleasure hasnโ€™t been without considerable frustration, mainly caused by two categories of ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ user. In spite of the warning in the previous chapter, Iโ€™m continually surprised by the number of those who find it easy to stop, yet later get hooked and find they canโ€™t succeed the next time.

Itโ€™s like finding someone up to their neck in a swamp and about to go under. You help pull them out and theyโ€™re grateful but then, six months later dive straight back into the swamp. Users who find it easy to stop and start again pose a special problem, however when you get free PLEASE, PLEASE, DONโ€™T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE. They believe such people start again because theyโ€™re still hooked and are missing the dopamine. In fact, they find stopping so easy that they lose their fear of โ– โ– โ– โ– . They think, โ€œI can have an odd session, and even if I do get hooked again, Iโ€™ll find it easy to stop.โ€

Iโ€™m afraid it just doesnโ€™t work that way, because itโ€™s easy to stop ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ but impossible to control the addiction. The one thing essential to stopping ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is not using it.

People usually come back to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ because they misunderstand the โ€œeasyโ€ in EasyPeasy.

Imagine someone sitting on the cold concrete floor of a freezing room. On the wall opposite to them thereโ€™s a window showing a perfect spring day outside โ€” trees gently swaying, birds chirping โ€” right next to an unlocked door.

Does it take any willpower getting out of that freezing room? No! Is escaping any harder than staying? Of course not! (In fact, itโ€™s a little easier because of the body moving). Why would anyone in their right mind put themselves in such a situation, causing themselves months or years of frustration unless they were tricked?

EasyPeasy pushes aside curtains so the user can see outside clearly and to remove delusions about how terrible outside can be and how comfortable the user is in the room.

The other category of frustrating users are those too frightened to make the attempt to stop, or when they do, find it a great struggle. The main difficulties appear to be the following.

Fear of failure.

Thereโ€™s no disgrace in failure, but not trying is plain stupidity. Look at it this way, youโ€™re hiding from nothing. The worst thing that can happen is that you fail, in which case you are no worse off than you are now. Just think how wonderful it would be to succeed. If you donโ€™t make the attempt, youโ€™ve already guaranteed failure.

Fear of pain and being miserable.

Donโ€™t worry about it, just think: what awful thing could happen to you if you never watched ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ again? Absolutely nothing. Terrible things will happen if you do; re-read the notes on Pascalโ€™s Wager. In any case, the panic is caused by dopamine and will soon be gone. The greatest gain is being rid of that fear. Do you really believe that users are prepared to have fading penetrations, unreliable sexual performance, or the illusory pleasure they get from ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡? If you find yourself getting panicky, deep breathing will help. If youโ€™re with other people and theyโ€™re getting you down, escape from them and go to the garage, an empty office or somewhere.

If you feel like crying, donโ€™t be ashamed. Crying is natureโ€™s way of relieving tension. No one has ever had a good cry without feeling better afterwards. One of the awful things we do to young men is conditioning them not to cry. You can see them trying to fight back the tears, but watch the jaw grinding away. We teach ourselves not to show emotion, but weโ€™re not meant to bottle them up inside. Scream, shout or have a tantrum. Kick something. Regard your struggle as a boxing match that you cannot lose. Nobody can stop time, every moment that passes that little monster inside you is dying. Enjoy your inevitable victory.

Not following the instructions.

Incredibly, some users say that the method didnโ€™t work for them. They then describe how they ignored not only one instruction but practically all of them. For clarity, these are summarised as a checklist at the end of this chapter.

Misunderstanding instructions.

The chief problems appear to be these:

โ€œI canโ€™t stop thinking about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.โ€

Of course you canโ€™t and if you try, youโ€™ll create a phobia, becoming miserable. Itโ€™s like trying to get to sleep at night: the more you try, the harder it becomes. It doesnโ€™t matter if you think about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ for ninety percent of your life, itโ€™s what youโ€™re thinking thatโ€™s important. If youโ€™re thinking โ€œOh, I love to look at ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡โ€ or โ€œWhen will I be free?โ€ youโ€™ll be miserable. If youโ€™re instead thinking โ€œYIPPEE! Iโ€™m free!โ€ youโ€™ll be happy.

โ€œWhen will the little ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ monster die?โ€

The dopamine flush leaves your body very rapidly, but itโ€™s impossible to tell when your body will cease suffering from the slight physical sensation of dopamine withdrawal. That empty, insecure feeling is identical to normal hunger, depression or stress. All ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ does is increase the level of it. This is why users who stop using the willpower method are never quite sure if theyโ€™ve kicked it, even after their body has ceased suffering dopamine withdrawal. If suffering normal hunger or stress, their brain is still telling them this is a valid reason to claim their entitled session. The point being that you donโ€™t have to wait for the craving to go, since itโ€™s so slight that we donโ€™t even know itโ€™s there, only knowing it as a feeling of wanting. When you leave the dentist do you wait for your jaw to stop aching? Of course you donโ€™t, you get on with life. Even though your jawโ€™s still aching, youโ€™re elated.

Donโ€™t wait for withdrawals to leave because youโ€™ll create doubt by constantly asking yourself โ€œHow long will this take? Am I even free if I donโ€™t feel any different?โ€ Fear is the actual pang, therefore waiting for life to get better after quitting will create doubt. Withdrawal is imperceptible unless you fear it, and the exponential improvements to neurology are slow, so if you wait to feel different, itโ€™ll feel like nothing is happening, creating doubt.

โ€œThe โ€˜moment of revelationโ€™ hasnโ€™t arrived yet.โ€

If you wait for it, youโ€™re just causing another phobia. I once stopped for three weeks on the willpower method. Chatting with an old friend, he asked me how I was getting on. โ€œIโ€™ve survived three weeksโ€, I replied. He queried, โ€œWhat do you mean, youโ€™ve survived three weeks?โ€ I clarified, โ€œIโ€™ve gone three weeks without ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.โ€ He said, โ€œWhat are you going to do? Survive the rest of your life? What are you waiting for, youโ€™ve done it. Youโ€™re a non-user.โ€

I thought, โ€œHeโ€™s absolutely right, what am I waiting for?โ€ Unfortunately, due to lack of understanding of the trap, I was soon back in, but the point was noted. You become a non-user when closing your browser. The important thing is to be a happy non-user from the start.

โ€œIโ€™m still craving ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡.โ€

Then youโ€™re being very stupid. How can you claim you want to be a non-user and then say that you want ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡? Thatโ€™s a contradiction. If you say that you want ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, youโ€™re saying you want to be a user. Non-users donโ€™t want to visit the disgusting tube sites. You already know what you want to be, so stop punishing yourself.

โ€œIโ€™ve opted out of life.โ€

Why? All you have to do is stop killing yourself and start energising instead. You donโ€™t have to stop living in the slightest. Itโ€™s as simple as this, for the next couple of days youโ€™ll have a slight trauma in your life. Your body will suffer the almost imperceptible aggravation of withdrawal from demands and claims for a dopamine surge. Now, bear this in mind: youโ€™re no worse off than you were. This is what youโ€™ve been suffering for the whole of your life, every time youโ€™ve been asleep, in church, the supermarket or library. It didnโ€™t seem to bother you while you were a user and if you donโ€™t stop, youโ€™ll go on suffering this distress for the rest of your life.

p๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and orgasms donโ€™t make occasions, they deprive you of them. Even while your body is still craving dopamine, meals and social occasions are marvellous. Life is marvellous โ€” go to social functions, even if there are naked dancers there. Remember that youโ€™re not being deprived, they are. Every single one of them would love to be in your position, if only they knew. Enjoy being the prima donna and centre of attention. Stopping ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is a wonderful conversation point, taking a secret pleasure they cannot. Your friends and peers will be surprised to see that you, formerly shying and tired-looking, are now happy and cheerful. Youโ€™ll be enjoying life right from the start; thereโ€™s no need to envy pick-up artists at parties, theyโ€™ll be envying you โ€” if only they knew.

โ€œIโ€™m miserable and irritable.โ€

This is a failure to follow instructions. Find out which one it is. Some people understand and believe everything written, but still start off with a feeling of doom and gloom, as if something terrible were happening. Youโ€™re not only doing what youโ€™d like to do, but what every user on the planet would like as well. With any method of stopping, the ex-user is trying to achieve a certain frame of mind, so every ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡-related thought is punctuated by โ€œYIPPEE! Iโ€™M FREE!โ€ If thatโ€™s your objective, why wait? Start off in that frame of mind and never lose it. Thereโ€™s no alternative.

โ€œI had a good week / month / six months but Iโ€™m back in the trap.โ€

Remember, fear is the pang itself. Giving into a pang generates more fear, feeding the weakened little monster and succeeding in spooking the non-user into thinking theyโ€™re hooked for life. In reality, their conceptualisation of the brainwashing hasnโ€™t changed, but theyโ€™ve given dopamine to the thought process. This is by definition falling forward but is a failure to follow instructions. Understand which one below and rejoice.

29.1 The Checklist

Reading Time: 3 minutes

If you follow these instructions, you cannot fail:

  1. Make a solemn vow that youโ€™ll never, ever, go online to visit your harem OR settle for static pictures OR make peace with erotic graphics OR anything that contains supernormal stimuli, and stick to your vow.

  2. Get this clear in your mind: Thereโ€™s absolutely nothing to give up. By that, it isnโ€™t meant that you will be better off as a non-PMOer (youโ€™ve known this all along); nor that although there is no rational reason why you PMO, you get some pleasure or crutch from it, since otherwise you wouldnโ€™t do it. Whatโ€™s meant is thereโ€™s no genuine pleasure or crutch in PMOing. Itโ€™s just an illusion, like banging your head against a wall to get pleasure when you stop.

  3. Thereโ€™s no such thing as a confirmed PMOer. Youโ€™re just one of the hundreds of millions whoโ€™ve fallen for the subtle trap. Like the millions of other ex-PMOers who once thought they couldnโ€™t escape, youโ€™ve escaped.

  4. If at any time in your life you were to weigh up the pros and cons of PMOing, the overwhelming conclusion would always be โ€œStop doing it. Youโ€™re a fool!โ€ Nothing will ever change that. Itโ€™s always been that way and always will be. Having made what you know to be the correct decision, donโ€™t ever torture yourself by doubting. Pascalโ€™s Wager perfectly applies to PMO, with no chance of loss, high chances of gains, and high chances of avoiding losses.

  5. Donโ€™t try not to think about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, or worry that youโ€™re thinking about it constantly. Whenever you do think about it, whether today, tomorrow, or the rest of your life, think โ€œYIPPEE! Iโ€™M A NON-PMOer!โ€

  6. Do not use any form of substitute. Do not challenge yourself by keeping your laptop next to you while you sleep. Do not avoid plays, movies or magazines. Do not change your lifestyle in any way purely because youโ€™ve stopped. If you follow the above instructions, youโ€™ll soon experience the โ€˜moment of revelationโ€™, but:

  7. Donโ€™t wait for the โ€˜moment of revelationโ€™ to come. Just get on with your life, enjoying the highs and coping with the lows. Youโ€™ll find in no time at all the moment will arrive.

Help Those on the Sinking Ship!

Reading Time: 8.5 minutes

P๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ users are panicking nowadays, sensing changes in the way internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is perceived by men and women. Internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡โ€™s addictive nature is being studied increasingly often, now rightly regarded as being different from traditional pornography. Effortlessness and availability raises alarm even in the hearts of ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ supporters. They also sense that their crusade for free speech and thought is being hijacked by various elements. The wild west of the unpoliced internet makes it near-impossible to enforce age restrictions to supernormal stimuli. Itโ€™s unfortunate that this wonโ€™t come to an end anytime soon, but hundreds of thousands of users are stopping, with most addicts aware of studies showing similarities between ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and substance addiction. Each time a user leaves the sinking ship, the ones left on it feel ever more miserable.

Every user instinctively knows that itโ€™s ridiculous to self-sabotage and spend time in front of two-dimensional pixels, super-surging their brain and in the process developing neural pathways that guarantee poor sexual performance. If you still donโ€™t think itโ€™s silly, try talking to a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ magazine standing at the centre of your city and ask yourself what the difference is. Just one. You canโ€™t get the pleasure of warmth and intimacy that way. If you can stop buying alcohol and cigarettes every time you go grocery shopping, you can definitely stop visiting your online harem. Users canโ€™t find rational reasons for watching ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, but they donโ€™t feel quite so silly if other people do it too.

Users blatantly lie about their habit, not just to researchers and those around them, but to themselves. They have to โ€” the brainwashing is essential if theyโ€™re to retain some self-respect. They feel the need to justify their โ€˜habitโ€™ not only to themselves but to non-users. Theyโ€™re forever advertising the illusory advantages of ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ by subtler means.

If a user stops by using the willpower method they still feel deprived, tending to become a moaner. All this does is to confirm to other users how right they are to continue using. If the ex-user succeeds in kicking the habit, theyโ€™re then grateful they no longer have to go through life self-sabotaging or wasting energy and have no need to justify themselves. Remember, itโ€™s fear that keeps the userโ€™s head in the sand, only questioning their behaviour when stopping. Help the user by removing those fears. Tell them how marvellous it is not having to go through life living in a prison, how lovely it is to wake up in the morning feeling fit and healthy instead of lacking in energy and self-loathing, how wonderful it is to be free of slavery, to be able to enjoy the whole of your life and to be rid of those black shadows. Or better still, get them to read this book.

Itโ€™s essential not to belittle a married user by indicating that theyโ€™re deliberately ruining their relationship or itโ€™s in some way cheating or unclean. Thereโ€™s a common misconception that the ex-user is worst in this aspect. This conception has some substance, but is generally due to the willpower method of stopping. Because the ex-user โ€” although having kicked the habit โ€” still retains part of the brainwashing and still believes theyโ€™ve made a sacrifice. They feel vulnerable and their natural defense mechanism is to attack the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ user.

This might boost the ex-userโ€™s ego, but it does nothing to help the user. All it does is put their back up against the wall, making them feel even more wretched and consequently their need for ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ even greater. Although the change in the medical establishmentโ€™s attitude to internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is the main reason why many users are quitting, it doesnโ€™t make it any easier to do so. In fact, it makes it a great deal harder. Most users nowadays believe theyโ€™re stopping primarily for health reasons. This isnโ€™t strictly true.

Although the enormous health risk is obviously the chief reason for quitting, users have been sabotaging their virility for years and it hasnโ€™t made the slightest bit of difference. The main reason why users are stopping is because society is beginning to see ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ unmasked for what it is: drug addiction. Societiesโ€™ attitudes are slowly changing: many partners would now ask questions if youโ€™re on your laptop in the middle of the night.

Complete bans on ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ in some countries or the unavailability of internet are classic examples of the travelling userโ€™s dilemma. Generally they take the attitude that it will help them cut down on their intake. The result being that instead of one or two a day, neither of which they would have enjoyed, they abstain for an entire week. During this enforced period of abstinence however, not only will they be mentally deprived waiting for their reward, their body is craving too. Oh, how precious that online harem visit is when theyโ€™re eventually allowed.

Enforced abstinences donโ€™t actually cut down the intake because the user just indulges themselves even more when finally allowed to be alone. All it does is to engrain in the userโ€™s mind how precious internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is and how dependent they are upon it. The most insidious aspect of this enforced abstinence is its effect on adolescents. We allow the hijackers of โ€˜freedom of expressionโ€™, the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ producers, to target unfortunate teenagers to get them hooked in the first place. Then, at what is probably the most stressful period in their lives, when, in their deluded minds, they need ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ most of all, we blackmail them into giving up because of the harm theyโ€™re causing to themselves.

Many are unable to do so and are forced, through no fault of their own, to suffer a guilt complex for the rest of their lives. Many succeed and are pleased to do so, thinking, โ€œFine. Iโ€™ll do this for now and after itโ€™s over Iโ€™ll be cured anyway." Then comes the pain and fear of finding work and other adult struggles, followed by the biggest โ€˜highโ€™ of their lives โ€” finding a job. The pain and fear are over, now feeling secure, the old trigger mechanism comes back into operation. Part of the brainwashing still being there and before the smell of the new work laptop is gone, the user is at the threshold of their favorite online harem. The elation of the occasion blocks the foul feelings from their mind, they have no intention of becoming hooked again, but just one peek couldnโ€™t hurtโ€ฆ Too late! Theyโ€™re already hooked again.

The old craving from the little monster will begin again and even if they donโ€™t become hooked again straight away, post-high depression will probably catch them out. Itโ€™s strange that although heroin addicts are criminals in law, societyโ€™s response is helping these individuals. Letโ€™s adopt the same attitude to the poor ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ user. Theyโ€™re not doing it because they want to, but because they think they have to. Unlike the heroin addict, they usually suffer years upon years of mental and physical torture. We always say a quick death is better than a slow one, so donโ€™t envy the poor ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ user. They deserve your pity.

Chapter 31

Advice to Non-users

Reading Time: 29 minutes

31.1 Help get your ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ using friends to read this book

First, study the contents of this book and try to put yourself in the place of the user. Donโ€™t force them to read this book by telling them theyโ€™re ruining their health or playing with fire. They know this better than you do. Users donโ€™t continue viewing ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ because they enjoy it or because they want to, they only tell themselves and other people this in order to retain self-respect. They do it because theyโ€™re dependent on ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ because they think it relaxes them, gives them courage or confidence (pleasure or crutch) and because they feel that life will never be enjoyable without โ€˜sexโ€™ โ€” at least their version of it. If you try and force a user to stop, theyโ€™ll feel like a trapped animal and want their harem even more. This may turn them into a secret user and ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ will become even more precious in their mind.

Instead, concentrate on the other side of the coin. Get them into the company of ex-users (blogs, forums, YBOP, NoFap, etc., though beware of advocacy for the willpower method). Get them to tell the user how they too thought they were hooked for life and how much better life is as a non-user. Once you have got them into believing they can stop, their mind will start to open up. Then start explaining the delusion created by withdrawal pangs. Not only are the โ€˜dopamine rushesโ€™ not giving them a boost, theyโ€™re destroying their confidence and making themselves irritable and tired.

They should now be ready to read this book themselves, expecting to read pages upon pages of stories about unreliable arousal, fading penetrations, PIED, PE, etc. Explain that this approach is completely different and references to illness are tiny fractions of material.

In short, donโ€™t let this die in darkness. Tell your friends, but donโ€™t be weird about it. If you try to โ€˜winโ€™ the conversation or have a debate, youโ€™ll only succeed in alienating them and further increasing their fear.

31.2 Should I tell my significant other?

Should I tell my wife, girlfriend or partner about my habit? (The intention being to assist you in quitting.) Thereโ€™s multiple factors at play here.

If youโ€™ve already been failing to quit using the willpower method and have already told your partner, tell them about your new approach and allow them to educate themselves by reading the book. Theyโ€™ll be able to assist and motivate you during the withdrawal period and are a stronghold when the little monster attempts to trip you up.

If youโ€™ve only just become aware of the existence of the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ trap and havenโ€™t attempting quitting in the past, first use EasyPeasy yourself. As explained previously, this should be a enjoyable experience. However, if youโ€™re finding it difficult, request their assistance. Be open and vulnerable with your partner and itโ€™ll strengthen your relationship.

Provided youโ€™re enjoying escaping and arenโ€™t finding it difficult through indecision, there isnโ€™t much reason to let your partner know. If it wasnโ€™t an issue in the past, let it die. However, be prepared that your partner might wonder why youโ€™re looking, feeling and performing better!

31.3 My partner is quitting ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡

Pornography is a perverse destroyer of relationships and while quitting can be done instantly, healing takes time. Many users, due to irrational beliefs spawned from their addiction, take out their anger on partners and loved ones. These behaviours manifest in gaslighting, lying and manipulative behaviours. This isnโ€™t all users, but itโ€™s increasingly common in later stages of the disease. While these behaviours may have manifested from the underlying ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ addiction, itโ€™s important to educate yourself about these behaviours and if recognised, consider seeing a therapist specialising in sexual addictions.

If your partner is within the withdrawal period, assume theyโ€™re suffering whether they are or not. Donโ€™t attempt to minimise it by telling them itโ€™s easy to stop, they can do that themselves. Instead, continue telling them how proud you are, how much better theyโ€™re looking, how much sweeter it is to be with them and how much easier they are in general. Itโ€™s particularly important to keep doing this, because when a user makes an attempt to stop, the euphoria of the attempt and the praise they get from peers can help them along. However, they tend to forget quickly, so keep the praise coming.

Because theyโ€™re not talking about ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, you may think theyโ€™ve forgotten and donโ€™t want you to remind them. Usually the complete opposite is the case with the willpower method, as the ex-user tends be obsessed with nothing else. So donโ€™t be frightened to bring the subject up and keep praising them (theyโ€™ll tell you if they donโ€™t want to be reminded).

Go out of your way to relieve them of pressures during the withdrawal period, thinking of ways to make their life interesting and enjoyable. This can also be a trying period for non-users whoโ€™ve never had the addiction. If one member of a group is irritable, it can cause general misery all-round. So anticipate this if the ex-user is feeling irritable, they may well take it out on you, but donโ€™t retaliate, itโ€™s at this time they need your praise and sympathy the most. If youโ€™re feeling irritable yourself, which is understandable, try not to show it.

One of the tricks an addict will play when trying to give up with the aid of the willpower method is getting in tantrums, hoping that their partner or friends would say โ€œI canโ€™t bear to see you suffering like this. For goodness sake, just take your poison.โ€ The user therefore doesnโ€™t have to lose face, since they arenโ€™t โ€˜giving upโ€™, theyโ€™ve been instructed. If the ex-user pulls this ploy, on no account encourage them to relapse. Instead say, โ€œIf this is what ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ does to you, thank goodness youโ€™ll soon be free. How marvellous that you had the courage to give it up.โ€

Remember, there are two healing parties within the recovery journey. When your partner is quitting ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, itโ€™s important to have your own support network, self-care routines and boundaries. This process doesnโ€™t happen overnight, requiring trust, communication and accountability. Journaling, developing your own passions and most importantly, therapy, assist this process.

31.4 Slipping (relapse)

The existence of this section should serve as warning to those leaving the trap. Personally, I have never relapsed, but I will use experiences from interviews with community members and tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to illustrate.

Firstly, calling it a relapse is counterproductive. All thatโ€™s happened is that youโ€™ve slipped and fed the little monster, which in turn starts up the big brainwashing monster. Users who slip (which, is by definition falling forward) typically spawn a whole range of irrational beliefs:

  • โ€œIโ€™ll never be freeโ€ - Catastrophising
  • โ€œI should / must exercise, study and be fruitful every single day of my lifeโ€ (aka - Musterbating)
  • โ€œToday I PMOed, so whatโ€™s even the use of reading all the books and forumsโ€ฆ My goal was to not even do M, but here I am โ€” a failure โ€” relapsing.โ€ - Low Frustration Tolerance
  • โ€œMy friends / forum readers / others are doing no PMO for (n) days, but I canโ€™t so Iโ€™m a hopeless case. Felt good yesterday since I studied well and was fruitful, but today I didnโ€™tโ€ฆ Iโ€™m going downhill.โ€ - Rating Between Self and Others
  • โ€œI shouldnโ€™t have sexual thoughtsโ€ - Themselves, parents or their society as a whole has installed rigid beliefs in relation to sex. Ask yourself if self-flagellation is helping you reach your goals, and if you are, are you enjoying the journey?

Factors that culminate to each userโ€™s brainwashing are seemingly infinite. You know yourself better than anyone else, but itโ€™s obviously a failure to follow instructions. You saw value in pornography, but how?

Whatโ€™s often overlooked is that it takes time to reverse the brainwashing. This doesnโ€™t make it any harder, but nearly every industry uses sex, and actively countering brainwashing is a conscious process (at least to begin with), so it might take time to fully solidify the lessons contained within. Hence, multiple readings are recommended (you can skip to chapters youโ€™re having difficulty with) and shouldnโ€™t take you long.

A surprisingly common experience for religious users leaving the trap is wanting it to hurt a little bit, as a form of atonement. They find quitting so easy, then feel guilty for feeling this way. But why self-sabotage and make it hard? The little monster is very sneaky in this regard.

Disassociate yourself from the little monster โ€” it was added by the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ industry long ago. Imagine a bully having a tantrum on the school playground. What do you say to a bully? If you give in, youโ€™ll just reinforce them. Some who quit end up feeding the bully, and so increase their brainwashing, but their conceptualisation of the trap hasnโ€™t changed. Pick yourself up, figure out where you went wrong, and enjoy freedom!

Youโ€™re not your urge. Mindfulness meditation is the practice of noticing thought, and there are fundamental lessons in the nature of the mind to be found. Itโ€™s highly recommended that you meditate in general, and itโ€™s also completely compatible with religious practice. You canโ€™t fight with yourself, or with the little monster. Youโ€™ve got to unconditionally love yourself and the process.

But remove failure from your mind. Hereโ€™s a section from โ€œMeditations of a P๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ Addictโ€ by Gulliaco (linked in the Resources section at the end of the book):

Since watching ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ offers you zero benefits, itโ€™s something that only hurts you, and itโ€™s extremely ridiculous to want to do something like that, I compare it to drinking bleach. Here you go:

The hard journey of not drinking bleach.

Hi! We are NoBleach and we host rebooting challenges in which participants (โ€œBleachstronautsโ€) abstain from drinking bleach for a period of time. Whether your goal is casual participation in a monthly challenge as a test of self-control, or whether excessive bleach drinking has become a problem in your life and you want to quit for a longer period of time, you will find a supportive community and plenty of resources here.

  • โ€œSometimes I allow myself to drink one or another glass of bleach. I know about that the โ€œone dropโ€ is a lie, but I donโ€™t think a single glass will hurt. One cannot destroy all the hours that I have spent without doing so.โ€
  • โ€œI donโ€™t have a problem stopping drinking bleach, but sometimes I go down the street, and I see someone drinking water, you know, in a glass, and I imagine that the glass has bleach in it. Then I have a craving and, after debating with myself whether I should do it or not, I finally give in at night and drink a glass.โ€
  • โ€œLook, my problem is that sometimes, when Iโ€™m alone in my kitchen, I start to see the glasses, sometimes I tempt myself by opening the container where I keep the bleach, sometimes I smell it andโ€ฆ Well, I end up right back where I started. Iโ€™m so desperate to stop this, but Iโ€™m not sure if Iโ€™ll ever be able to stop.โ€
  • โ€œStopping drinking bleach is impossible, I mean, I always have a mouth, you know? How am I supposed to stop if I always have a throat which reminds me that I can swallow bleach?โ€
  • โ€œOh man, it was going so well, 19 whole days without doing it. The important thing is to learn from failure! Now I know what to avoid doing: looking at cleaning products in the supermarket. I will try to make it to a month! Iโ€™ll reset my counter. Wish me luck!โ€

If you have an urge, calm down dude! Remember what the hackbook says:

โ€œBleach is difficult to give up because of fear weโ€™re being deprived of our pleasure or prop. The fear that certain pleasant situations will never be quite the same again. The fear of being unable to cope with stressful situations. In other words, itโ€™s the effects of brainwashing deluding us into believing that buying bleach, and by extension drinking it, is a must for all human beings. Even further, itโ€™s the belief thereโ€™s something inherent in affordable bleach that we need, and that when we stop using we will be denying ourselves and creating a void. Make this clear in your mind: Bleach doesnโ€™t fill a void, it creates one!โ€

And I say: โ€œSuppose youโ€™re forced to watch a glass full of bleach for five minutes. Try to remember one of those brands or smells that you liked so much. Maybe itโ€™s accompanied by some sound, or you only remember selected details. The bleach is there and you canโ€™t close your eyes or turn your head, because this bleach is in your mind, itโ€™s a memory recorded in you.

Do you feel any craving? Do you feel anything in your tongue or any change in your breathing? What are your feelings about what you are remembering? Get them identified, the bleach wants to cloud them, make them confusing and make you only pay attention to that which wants to catch you.โ€

With the above, I am not trying to dismiss your feelings, much less say something like โ€œhaha me smart you dumbโ€, but to give you perspective so that you realize how ridiculously easy it is (and always will be) to overcome this addiction. Watching ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is not like an on/off switch where you say โ€œoh well, Iโ€™m in situation X, then Iโ€™ll watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡โ€. Fantasies! Lies! How often do you allow yourself to drink a glass of bleach? Never? Why? Because itโ€™s a horrible thing, thatโ€™s why! How are you supposed to escape your addiction if you donโ€™t realize that PMO is a horrible thing to do to yourself?

31.5 What about MO (masturbation, orgasm)?

People have been wanking for eons without issue. To be clear, ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is the problem.

That being said, you can still get hooked on MO for the same reasons as ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, such as the โ€˜need-to-have-an-orgasmโ€™ mentality, mental escalation, forcing the body to have sex, and just plain hedonistic pleasure-seeking.

Itโ€™s exceedingly likely that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ and masturbation have become deeply intertwined in your mind. Many users find they end up relapsing as a result of masturbating to ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡-induced fantasies. As your brain rewires, youโ€™ll find this brainwashing eventually fades, but itโ€™s best to take a break from MO for a while. You should also seek out real sex in order to speed this process along.

This isnโ€™t an instruction, but evaluate it: reported benefits from semen retention are numerous โ€” increased focus and energy, removal of โ€˜brain fogโ€™ and increased confidence, along with a slew of other benefits. From personal experience, thereโ€™s a clear difference, and itโ€™s all down to how you sublimate this increased energy.

Speculating, and without strict scientific knowledge, the benefits might come down to couple of different factors.

  • After orgasm, the brain releases prolactin, which inhibits dopamine release.
  • Depriving your brain of dopamine flushes allows more uptake from simply living life.
  • Semen is reabsorbed by the bloodstream after ~78 days, and is one of the best nutrients your body can get.
  • Sublimating sexual energy into productive habits brings with it an extra layer of productivity.

You may wish to have sex without orgasm as well, which as mentioned earlier, is a wonderful sexual experience (often referred to as Karezza). You can strengthen your ability to do this by practicing Kegel exercises. From personal experience, the easiest and most effective way to target this muscle is stopping and starting your urine mid-stream (though be careful not to overdo it, which can cause problems of its own). Separation of the tantric and propagative parts of sex is one of the many bonuses of escaping the PMO trap (and my partners have loved it too!).

31.6 Deviations from standard advice

This section is new, and is written somewhat apprehensively; even still, it must be mentioned.

Some people using EasyPeasy find their desire to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ becomes so reduced that they canโ€™t bring themselves to have a final session. This is fine, but donโ€™t underestimate the power of having one. Mindfully browsing and solidifying just how much you dislike PMO can be really powerful. Personally, I found it really useful and was happy to wash my hands clean of it, genuinely relieved to never have to do it ever again. However, your mileage may vary.

If youโ€™ve already been free from the trap for a while and have just removed the brainwashing, thereโ€™s no need to feed the little monster as it would just nag you. Enjoy freedom instead!

31.7 Help end this scandal

Internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is one of the dangers in a free society, piggy-backing on the good-willed efforts of advocates for personal freedom. Surely the very basis of civilisation โ€” the reason why the human species has advanced so far โ€” is because weโ€™re capable of communicating our knowledge and experiences, not only to each other but to future generations. Even animals find it necessary to guard their offspring from lifeโ€™s pitfalls.

P๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ producers arenโ€™t doing this in good faith, genuinely believing they help mankind, especially now as addiction to internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is widely studied. Perhaps in its initial stages people genuinely believed that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ educated people on intimacy, but authorities know thatโ€™s a fallacy. No tube site makes genuine claims about education. The only claims made are about the shock, novelty and escalating qualities of their wares.

The sheer hypocrisy is incredible: as a society we otherwise get uptight about school bullying and objectification of the human body. Compared with internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, these problems are mere pimples. Numbers of those addicted climb to new heights each year, spending quality time with imaginary and illusory pixel people at the expense of their health, virility, energy and time. Itโ€™s by far the biggest killer in relationships, and hundreds of thousands of lives are ruined every year because they get hooked. Internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ producers donโ€™t advertise in mainstream publications โ€” they donโ€™t need to, our biological urges lead us to the thresholds of their well stocked harems, giving out free samples like the local drug dealer. Nowadays, the tube sites donโ€™t so much stock the wares as much as they encourage visitors to post content.

How clever that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ companies show 18+ warnings as the deterrent for underage users, though some donโ€™t even bother to do that. Internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ affects everyone at all ages. โ€œWe warned you of the danger, so itโ€™s your choice,โ€ is their attitude. Do they take any steps to verify age? No, that would discourage their customers. Of course, if age verification is legislated, theyโ€™ll just find another country to operate from. Or, will they pay some โ€˜eliteโ€™ to write about how prohibition resulted in bootlegging and the creation of the Mafia? Conveniently forgotten is the question of why repealing prohibition didnโ€™t result in the reduction of alcohol-related casualties, and the failure of law enforcement to control the Mafiaโ€™s growth.

We can address this differently by educating the younger generation. If they can step around cigarettes and alcohol when shopping, they can do the same with internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. Weโ€™re already seeing societal shifts such as โ€˜No Nut Novemberโ€™ and โ€˜Coomerโ€™ memes becoming mainstream. The user doesnโ€™t have the choice any more than the heroin addict does. Users donโ€™t decide to become hooked, theyโ€™re lured into a subtle trap. If they had the choice, the only users tomorrow morning would be adolescents just starting out, believing they could stop at any time if they wanted to.

Why the phony standards? Why are heroin addicts seen as criminals, yet can register as addicts and get methadone and proper medical treatment to assist in getting off it? Just try registering as a ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ addict โ€” if you go to your doctor for help, theyโ€™ll either tell you: โ€œStop doing it so much, try moderation,โ€ which you already know wonโ€™t work, or will prescribe medication to address your โ€˜depressionโ€™. Worse is the advice to go and find real partners โ€” seriously? Have they never heard of users who find ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ better and do it behind their partnerโ€™s back? Some people just donโ€™t understand.

Scare campaigns donโ€™t help users to stop, they make it harder. All they do is frighten users, which makes them want to watch even more. They also do not prevent teenagers from becoming hooked. Teenagers know that ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ kills their libido, but they also know that one peek wonโ€™t do it. Because the addiction is so prevalent, sooner or later the teenager โ€” either through social pressures or curiosity โ€” will try just one visit. Because free ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ has awful clips, itโ€™s likely theyโ€™ll become hooked.

Why do we allow this scandal to go on? Why donโ€™t governments come out with proper campaigns? Why arenโ€™t we told that that internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ is a drug and killer poison, that it doesnโ€™t relax you or give you confidence, but destroys your nerves, taking just one peek to become hooked? Why canโ€™t they enforce age verification by requesting registered credit cards, perhaps with a third party? MindGeek, owner of many of the major ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ sites, is attempting swindle governments into using their own proprietary age verification solution โ€” donโ€™t let them do it! H. G. Wellโ€™s The Time Machine describes an incident in the distant future where a man falls into a river. His companions merely sit around the bank like cattle oblivious to the cries of desperation. Inhuman and disturbing, much like societyโ€™s general apathy to the ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ crisis.

There is a wind of change of society. A snowball has begun rolling down the hill and itโ€™s hoped this book will help turn it into an avalanche. You too can help by spreading the message.

As such, to ask โ€” if you see anyone struggling using willpower, or attempting to quit ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡, kindly point them towards this method. However, the real task at hand is changing the narrative around ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ in general. Please consider making a habit that if you see online or even experience ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡โ€™s normalisation first-hand, you aim to respectfully educate and free them.

Occasionally, you might get a negative reaction, but sometimes a comment is all thatโ€™s needed. As many have done before you, you can expect to receive messages from grateful people thanking you for their freedom.

31.8 Final Warning

You can now enjoy the rest of your life as a happy non-user. In order to make sure that you do, you need to follow these simple instructions.

  1. Keep the following page in your bookmarks and refer to it as much as you need.
  2. If you ever start to envy another user, realise theyโ€™ll be envious of you. You arenโ€™t being deprived. They are.
  3. Remember that you didnโ€™t enjoy being a user. Thatโ€™s why you stopped. You enjoy being a non-user.
  4. Remember, thereโ€™s no such thing as just one peek.
  5. Never doubt your decision never to watch ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ again. You know itโ€™s the correct one.
  6. If you have any difficulties, find and contact a therapist knowledgeable in internet ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡. You can find lists of these online.

31.1 Help get your ๐—‰๐—ˆ๐—‹๐—‡ using friends to read this book

  • Encouragement over coercion: Users need support, not pressure. Encourage them to read the book and join supportive communities.
  • Exposure to success stories: Ex-usersโ€™ experiences can inspire hope and motivate users to change their mindset.
  • Avoid confrontation: Approach the topic with understanding and empathy rather than trying to win arguments.
