beginning of April I was looking at too much porn. I wrote a letter to myself that said I promise not to look at porn the rest of the month. and signed it

last night after work, I took a nap and woke up , I had a big date today, and it seems right before I do something"big" for myself , at least three times, I looked at

porn. I woke up , my phone was by me, and it was almost automatic I looked up my fav categorie. I relize this seems to be a coping mechanism for stress or

something and I dislike it. In fact I hate it!! Anyone else going through this?

A long time ago when I was unwed and not a parent I would get bored and lonely, so would fall back on porn to alleviate the boredom. Best to get away from it. Replace with more positive endeavors.

Yes.. same as any other crutch. I get it bad if I am feeling depressed or hungover. It is a coping mechanism.

I feel like I disappointing myself. Im not self hating , it was weak i wrote and signed a promise to myself and broke it. I ended up looking at more last night and this morning, got that fix. I feel better temporarily, but that was weak of me.

I wrote another note and signed it today. This writing of a promise and signing it right now, helps me because if I look at porn it makes me feel like I disappointing myself.

Me telling my fav category isnt helping, its only making matters worst. Im surprised you even asked that question. I know your joking and I appreciate your humor, but please joke in another thread.

Eh, don't be so upset with yourself, it's still just porn. The bigger issue is PMO. I noticed when I started practicing No Fap that after about a week I no longer have any interest in porn and instead their is some sort of switch that makes me much more into people. It must be when that T level peaks at around day 7. But it never goes away after that.

I think the porn addiction is much more linked to masterbation habits than porn habits. If you've masterbated in the last few days, you're more likely to crave that urge to get off.

Either wag, as they say, progress not perfection. You aknowledged your behavior and work to improve it next time, its a process.
