Glad I'm not alone

Just found this site and it is great to know that the problems I'm struggling with are shared by many. Well, obviously it's not great that you all have problems too, that came out wrong. What I mean is that it is nice to know that I'm not some freak. I've been hooked on porn pretty much since the internet was invented. I've tried to stop so many times and always come back. Lately I've been spending hours on chat rooms and chatting with people on Skype voice. I think I have PIED which is having a negative impact on my marriage. She doesn't suspect why, she just knows I'm not as interested in real sex, and when I do try, I have issues performing. So I stumbled upon this site and decided to try a reboot. I'm on my 14th day now, and the urges are killing me. My pattern used to be to start PMO (see, I'm learning your acronyms!) as soon as I'd hear my wife pull out of the driveway. I think my biggest trigger every morning is watching her dress and get ready for work. It always revs me up, but she is in a hurry and can't really do anything, and then by the evening when we're both home, we're both so tired that it is pretty much watch TV and go to bed. So every morning, once that garage door closes, I fire up the internet and play till I have to leave for work. Anyway, I'm hoping I find some help here.

Thanks for listening,

Ray

 

Thanks Ryan, I appreciate it.

 

Believe me, it has gone on for so long I have it pretty well memorized. The good news is that with all the time I've been saving over the last two weeks, my house has never looked cleaner! Also replacing some of the time with sleep, which is nice too.

 

i agree. I almost caved in on Sunday, but instead of going to my usual chatrooms, I came here first, and I ended up being able to resist, so still going strong at 14 days now. I've replaced PMO with exercise, house cleaning, and sleep. The urges seem to be getting a little easier. Far from over though.
