    Hi everyone! I have nearly ruined my life due to porn addiction which slowly developed over a period of past 10 years. It was so gradual that I did not realise the deep shit I was entering in pornography. I hope this community helps me in bringing me back from this Abyss.

    Welcome!

    I know what you're talking about. My habit developed over much longer. You can conquer this! Let me know if I can help.

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and sometimes challenge you but not judge you.

    The enemy is here to steal, kill and destroy. What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

    I have tried porn blocker...religion.... meditation...etc...of these only meditation worked that to for about 15 days...and then somehow I convince myself that I have earned to masturbate once....but then it spirals downwards pretty quickly and within 2 days I revert to my old habits of excessive PMO....
    Please advise me with the strategy to cut off internet absolutely and get rid of screens I.e. mobile, laptop, tv, etc...because they are the major triggers for me....However, I also have to use internet for study purposes...what should I do?

    Porn blockers are deterrents not unbreakable safes which will completely prevent you from ever getting around them. They are to slow you down enough so that you realize what you are doing.

    You stated that you “somehow” convinced yourself you earned the right to masturbate... you were there, you know how you did it. Take responsibility for it. “Somehow” sounds as if you don’t know it happened. You may have had brain fog at some point and went into an autopilot mode but before that, you knew what your actions and thoughts would lead to. Own your actions. That will help you as you go along your journey.

    Check out In Case You Didn't Know for strategies and tips which may help you along your journey.
