    Hi Mathew,
    How come your tracker is at 202 days without PMO then?
    I'm guessing this number is from a previous attempt.
    For me I think about what is important in my life: my wife, my dogs, career, home, extended family.
    I don't want to lose any of them.
    I have been addicted to porn since my teens and I am now in my late 40s.
    You can break away from this. You just need to define what is important to you and why you want to quit.

    You have to replace it with more satisfying goals, use that energy to achieve what you want to achieve.

    If you're really horny, use that energy to become super motivated with dating. Sign up to every dating site/app that's going, put together a really good dating profile, spend time every day dedicated to online dating, and then arrange dates and go on dates. Or if you want to go the offline route, join as many social/activity groups as you can fit into your schedule and be happy doing.

    This is the best way to approach NoFap in my opinion. I think some people decide to quit fap but don't come up with a plan for what to fill that void with. That's like resigning from a job you hate but not having a plan for other jobs to apply for.

    If you're horny and you're not fapping, you need to get into dating big time, either online or offline.

    The reason you're always thinking about it is because you want it badly. It's natural. Distracting yourself won't help, just like when you're in love, you may distract yourself for several hours, sometimes even days, but you'll always remember what you really want.
    You have to change how you view porn. As long as porn is such an awesome thing for you you will struggle. Humans don't want to let go of something that they really want. You need to truly understand why porn is not the right thing for your life otherwise you'll stick with it.
