Have you tried to install a blocker? We use covenant eyes. It helps, but obviously isn’t the be al end all. Also, finding someone to talk to about it would be helpful. Someone you can trust and who wouldn’t shame you if you slipped.
Yes it definitely a bad habit . For many years I’ve used it as a get away or a comfort for temporal pleasure . It’s especially bad because I’m a Christian man . When I’m struggling with fear , identity, answers and all , I rely on pleasure of the flesh . I constantly think about it because I know I’m suppose to not do it . It only makes it worse . Praying that I truly taste the goodness and freedom that God offers do that I run to Him and not my sinful pleasures . I’ll be praying for everyone who is struggling with this and ocd! God bless
I'm like this too. I used to love it but now just thinking about it I'm like ehh.... Not something I care to do
Cold turkey.
I quit last year in August. I’m so proud that I did. I just started focusing on how bad it was, and that led me to give it up. The more grossed out I was by it, the easier it was to stop it. I also stopped drinking alcohol.
Quit porn but don’t quit the joystick lol. Make time to enjoy yourself but make sure to do it without porn. This will train your mind to focus on the pleasure aspect of it and not the risqué aspect of it. Also, meditation and anything that releases oxytocin makes porn less appealing. It’s the sort of “love” drug that makes you feel emotional and connected, which makes the pure lust and debauchery of porn unappealing. Things that release oxytocin include hugging other people, pleasant scents, etc.

I am a girl's in my twenties. I got diagnosed with OCD last year. I have a boyfriend, sadly we're long distance right now. I've liked boys all my life. It's very difficult to sustain intimacy in a long distance relationship. Sometimes I have intimate calls with my boyfriend and it's nice. Other times, however, (and I am not proud of it) I do watch porn. I started watching porn when I was 16. I've tried to quit it many times but every couple of weeks I go back to it. And as everyone knows, one of the MANY problems with it is that your brain will always ask for more. More taboo things, more explicit things. I have a daddy kink. I've roleplayed with my boyfriend and watched porn of this kink. Now, the thing is that my brain keeps telling me that I won't orgasm unless I think of little girls being ab*sed. I've never looked for that on the internet, I never want to either. I am under EXTREME DISTRESS, because what my brain tells me feels SO REAL, and it's like my pleasure gets blocked and that contributes to me thinking my brain must be right. It wasn't like this before. I want to go back. I'm scared it will be like this forever now.
Guys I just wanted to hang up and I was looking at pornography every time I was you know do it and I would get bombarded with thoughts I'd get overwhelmed with them like my mind is just constantly thinking of and it was just so hard infuriating I was looking at like anime pornography and Isaw one of the videos that looks familiar I watched it before but I remember they had like a underage anime character and then I clicked off it as soon as I saw them and my mom said oh you clicked it just so you can see that and what makes it worse is like pretty ejaculation already leaked out so now it feels like I did it i didn't even jerk off to you all I did was see the thumbnail and then I have thoughts like saying oh well might as well already get off to it when it wasnt the content I wanted to see I seen that the thumbnail before in the sight I just ignored it was focusing on the video I wanted to see for now I feel like i have to restart everything not only with the overwhelming thoughts but also my thoughts made it feel like I was actively seeking it like if I want my thought it was like oh you knew it was going to be there but u still click it anyway oh yes I had a feeling but as soon as I saw it I clicked off I don't know I'm just overthinking I guess and also like as soon as I saw it like my mind had a urge like might aswell get off to it finish it very hard I don't even remember how I climaxed I don't even know if I did it right but now I feel like I have to restart
