This has been by far one of my biggest struggles recently, quitting porn. I just can't seem to stop watching it. I've quit my gaming addiction, which I thought was far worse with relative ease, but I keep relapsing to porn.
My highest streak has been 7 days. A few things I've noticed: 1) I almost always relapse on weekends, ususally in the afternoon or night. I get these insane urges after not nutting in 5-7 days that just can't seem to control. I know the basic advise is to go out and so something, but I live with my parents (I'm 16) and can't drive out. 2) once I relapse, i relapse more than once,sometimes even going 3-4 times in the same day. 3) it's especially hard when my exams are going on, when I just want to get over my urge and back to studying. It clouds my mind and I can't seem to focus on anything else.
Although I wouldn't say porn is a big problem for me right now, I really want to be able to control my urges. I've tried cold showers, exercise, meditation and everything else on the nofap subreddit including downloading apps and listening to "calming" music, nothing seems to be working.
Do any people in trp on nofap have any solutions to this? I would genuinely appreciate any and all help possible.
