Way to go man! 43 days is quite and accomplishment. It will begin to get easier and you will see the great benefits of kicking such a time consuming and counterproductive habit! Really wanting to see you triumph over this!

I know getting through that second week was painful but I am getting stronger every day thanks to all the support here. Not watching/obsessing over porn is a thing of the past and look forward to more and more benefits!
Day 78
I was contemplating the flatline phenomenon. It is really a strange place to find yourself. Knowing you want something. In my case someone, but not being able to achieve the desired response. Finding out it could be caused simply from watching something on a computer screen. It seemed like an injury to my penis. Yet it was not. The power of the mind is amazing. Don't ever underestimate the power of the mind, and always try to focus that power into positive channels. It is a life lesson I have to learn everyday. This is pointed at me guys, but please contemplate the power of positivity. Great job all, keep it u.

Day 44. Sometimes I have urges. I don't have urges to watch porn in general, though. Now I just get the occasional urge to watch my favorite scenes.
I'm having trouble remembering many pornstars' names now. I guess that's a good sign haha.

Yup, that is a good sign...putting that stuff out of your mind...rebooting and starting with a clean slate. Hang in there, 44 days is impressive and it gets easier. Just avoid lingering at anything dangerous! You can do this!
Wishful, you are very insightful and there is so much truth in what you've written. We should never underestimate the power of our mind...
Hang tough, my friend. I'm tied up this morning, but will post you later.
Kong, that is great. Getting rid of the obsessing over porn is a major victory. Hang tough and triumph over this. We are all pulling for you to succeed and we know you can!
I have a question for the porn opt-outs, is it the porn or is it the masturbation? I simply dont maturbate to porn (and at all frankly), and have no problems with EQ or time in bed, I can really go an hour long rock hard. Typical sex is about half hour, but usually due to time restraints and my wife, she cant get the big O if there's too much sex involved, she'll start going numb.
as for porn habit, I'll occasionally watch to get hard, but not actually masturbate. Seems like if I'm hard for a good bit, then have sex later, I tend to perform better and it feels better (anticipation effect?)

Day 79, I don't really know the answer to your question. I think you are saying you prefer getting stimulated by porn so you don't make your wife numb by having too much sex with her... If that meets you and your wife's needs then I guess go for it. I would do it differently. Good luck and enjoy your journey.
The video in my signature explains pretty well the problems we are trying to overcome. The way it presents in each of our lives is slightly different.

I never had any trouble with EQ or ED either. Even before I quit watching it recently, I could have sex and slow stroke it for half an hour without having an orgasm. If anything, I've become more sensitive and I orgasm a little quicker now (I'm happy with that, not having to slam a girl as hard as possible for 10 minutes straight just to get a nut out).
I just realised that it was probably unhealthy mentally and physically, even though most guys wouldn't consider it to be. I'd rather prevent issues, rather than having to fix them later.
Day 45.

Yes, I have completed control over my penis, my ejaculation response, my arousal level. Quitting porn is a part of that. Also I am not obsessed with looking for porn related images, and so I have gained a measure of control over the rest of my life. Watch the video in my signature. It may provide you with some answers. Good luck
Just to be clear, I dont watch a LOT of porn, maybe 10-15 minutes a day (on weekdays). Since I only have sex twice a week, I tend to watch it the days I dont have sex, and I simply dont have time for it during the weekends. I do it for the build up, kinda like going for a week with no sex kinda deal. An unnatural way of building sexual frustration so that when I perform, it feels better. I dont even know if 10-15 minutes a day is considered watching porn, sometimes, me and the old lady will watch it before and during sex. We're constantly discovering what works really, even after being married for 8 years now.
I may try the no porn method, however I dont consider myself a big porn user. How much do average guys watch porn?

I don't know of any specific studies that say what a normal guys watching habits are. I think you need to define normal, and decide what is normal for you. I was not normal I watched it everyday, and snuck around trying to watch it more often than I did. I was not getting erections, or aroused through normal contact with my wife.
Now I can get hard with just thinking about being with my wife. A kiss is enough to get the juices flowing. A memory of last time. Or I can kiss her, and avoid popping a boner if that is what I want. I am in control.
Ok guys
F*ck porn ! I'm never watching this ... again
Day 1 no porn
Fvck it to hell! I have a nice head start. Already went for at least 40 days without porn. But then I got lazy and thought I could watch it once in a while. Porn kills my stamina. I know I can beat porn and this time, I'll do what I should have done back then...END IT ONCE AND FOR ALL!
Day 1/∞
