I've been in the mindset porn and masterbation destroyed my life. This is not a full truth. The truth is past events and nonexistent coping skills cause me to use. Porn doesn't chase me down. I'm not the victim of porn. I AM NOT PORNS VICTIM. If anything I abused it. So I now feel a total restructure of life is the FOUNDATION of tru recovery. By defining what kind of man I want to be and incorporate positive social changes, there won't be a plume or place for PMO in my new life.
I have started trying to build a morning ritual. Wake drink a glass of water. Do a meditation. Exercise.breakfast. and a daily to do list. I am also spending time writing 1hr a day. And I've stopped isolating. I spend as much time in livingroom with family as possible. Over all slot on my mind and no down time really help.
i agree 100% on the lack of coping skills. Coping with tension to the opposite sex, letting people down, hearing criticism, and many others are natural occurrences that need coping skills.
