Porn was my Friday night reward...

    Hi,

    This was my habit for years - at the end of a stressful week, lots of things not working out, arguments, mistakes etc., I would take refuge in porn at the weekend. It began innocently enough, building up until full-blown PM for hours, chatting with strangers, until eventually I would O and crash out about 4am.

    And through a mix of guilt and lust, I would do exactly the same thing on Saturday night. On Sunday, I would be totally exhausted and return to work on Monday, an emotional, spiritual and physical wreck.

    Getting current - after several years of abstinence away from porn, I relapsed about 10 days ago (at the end of a very stressful work period of 6-7 months and gradual lowering of my standards).

    With this in mind, has anyone any helpful advice or suggestions how I stay away from porn this Friday (i.e. tomorrow night) and future Fridays?

    Yours in recovery,
    drbt444

    If you have any thoughts of watching p*** again, whenever it happens, go to your shower turn on ice cold water, and dunk your head underneath, and when you shower, always use cold water.

    The Cutting Edge of the chill will turn your focus away from the p***, and you will be able to focus on what you need to be doing instead of watching p***. If you are just trying to relax, I would recommend finding a different hobby for a reward to relax on Friday, like playing videogames, we're hanging out with friends, journaling, watching your favorite show, or help people on here.

    whatever you whatever you choose for a hobby, make sure it isn't sexually related, and stay away from masturbating to p*** for at least 90 days, give the rebooting session a try, you may find yourself sticking with it more than 3 months, just keep your head up no matter what! I believe in you!
