To people that have overcome porn addiction and many relapses

No fapping has been my goal for months. I’ve tried so hard, but every day I relapse. My record is two days, I spend 30 minutes to two hours doing the job, so you can tell this has affected my work efficiency. This is the only reason why I wanna quit. I need help resisting the urge to masturbate to porn, or at least preventing myself from accessing it. I can’t will myself, since masturbating is the climax of my day. I tried locking myself out of my phone, but then I bypass it or immediately use porn when the lock is over. When I’m doing work, I keep thinking about porn or masturbation. That’s why I rush through it. This is where the main fapping problems occur. Friends are out of the question, since they’re busy with their own lives. I tried exercising, but that isn’t enough to stop using porn. Anyone have any ideas for what I can do? I sometimes feel like I need to be locked in a cage without any porn and my arms restrained just to quit. Hopefully this helps.

Listen bro, I too am struggling so bad with this habit. Because I don’t even have a job right now, and I don’t have anything to do and all of friends got job mostly and I cannot meet up with them for many times. believe me when I say, iam so lonely here because I am living alone away from the people I love, and being alone eats me up, because I keep having negative thoughts so many times, and I keep overthinking everytime and get depressed everytime by my own mind and thoughts… Sure, being alone is a big reason for that, but still, thinking negatively about something which hasn’t happened is pretty stupid and very unhealthy for our heart.

Anyways what I am trying to tell you here is that, we cannot rely on one single factor like doing exercise to achieve freedom from this addiction, we have to rely on multiple factors and at the same time know that this addiction is not gonna go overnight.

The key is to be happy and treat yourself with love, positivity, and never losing hope.

All the things I have said, is easy to say, and I guarantee you that, it is also easy to implement, provided we don’t think of all this as a burden and rather think of it as a game or competition and challenge.

Finally, don’t try to battle this addiction alone, sure it is your own battle with yourself, but take assistance, guidance, and support from people who have actually broken free from this, as accountability partner and it should be someone you trust and look up to…

All the best,

I pray to Almighty that we both and everyone out there will try their best and break free from the shackles of lust and immorality.
