What helped you the most to quit masturbation/porn?

TRP isn't nofap. Like yeah you maybe should ideally get all of your sexual needs satisfied by actual women but cutting out masturbation from the outset is like trying to deadlift 600 lbs. your first year of lifting. Not impossible but unlikely to be realistically feasible IMHO. And frankly I'd probably want to still masturbate even if I was spinning plates. As Woody Allen said, "I'm the best I've ever had."

Porn: I learnt who owns major pornsites

Get a girlfriend/plates so you don't have to masturbate by yourself.

distract yourself with something else. IMO you don't have to go full Nofap, just don't do it everyday. I tried NoFap briefly and it put me in a super thirsty state. Ruined my vibe, but if that works for you then sure.

I was addicted for a long time, and it's taken over 1 year to reach a degree of normalization.

It was difficult at first, and to get through it, I would listen to audio sex stories to get off when aroused. This way, I would rely on my imagination for the visuals. It also appealed to me because I find dirty talk arousing.

The thing that helped most was having sex with women. Once you start getting action with some regularity, you'll automatically give up porn because it's just not the same. You realize how fake it really is.

Note that it's easy to fall back into it, so it's important to continue avoiding it.

Also, I wouldn't advise stopping masturbating, though you should try to do it with a very loose grip, and at a slower pace that is closer to real sex. Do it while standing up or kneeling as well to better imitate actual sexual positions, unless of course sitting in a chair is what you like.

Essentially, you're reprogramming your brain by changing old habits, and forming new, healthy ones instead.

Take a vacation or family trip somewhere. I seriously doubt you will be masturbating while on vacation. If you do then you have a problem.

But I would assume most men don't. So a few days away from not masturbating should carry over when you get back home.
