  1. Just " one last time...And I'll stop... " How do you deal with it ?

  2. Struggling with this too. Gotta convince yourself that there is no right time. Your brain has an infinite imagination for what porn to search if you are addicted. It will never be quenched by one more time. Happened to me today and never once has it worked. Gotta remember that and tell yourself that even when the devil starts yapping in your ear.

    First you need to acknowledge what this is. The good old "just one more time and starting tomorrow..." is something that manifests with all addiction. Or anything that will be challenging, actually.
    You'll hear that just as well from alcoholics or drug addicts as you will from out of shape people who want to start working out, or dieting, or wanting to learn a new skill, etc.

    Once you recognize that, you need to recognize another fact: there is no limit to how much you can procrastinate change. You can go on your whole life keeping that old habit that undermines you.

    You can't sit there waiting for the right mood to spring into existence. It won't.

    Once you accept those facts the path becomes clearer: the "one more time" rationale naturally becomes less compelling because you believe it less and less.
    So for me the trick to fight this has been to really just think about those facts. And whenever I go "one last time" about anything, I just know I'm lying to myself. Because that's what this is.
     
    Ghostrider1, Mr.Tony and kopykat like this.
  4. You're right, you're definitely right - thank you. It's like I have two aspects of me within my body, Myself and the Mind inside, The mind always wants something detrimental to myself, and he'll try to convince me it's the right thing to do.

    I guess I'm quieting this time for good, there is no going back - I'm must look out gor my person growth for once, Thanks again.
