I used to watch pretty hardcore things, thought “normal” sex was boring and it was hard for me to get wet.
After a year of no porn, sex is amazing. I don’t get turned on by the things I used to watch and I feel more confident!
I stopped masturbating until I felt strong enough to be able to do it without porn. Best thing to do is to go to the gym in the morning and in the evening. Because those were the times relapse was higher for me. See what good habits will help you to stay away from porn.
When I did fall back to porn once I wouldn’t call it a relapse, but a slip up. Relapse is a word I find too strong when you do it once after staying away for weeks. Recovery isn’t perfect and shame will only make it harder for you.
Try not to be too hard on yourself. That helped me. Treat yourself like a friend you want to help.
