Wow, this is more difficult than I thought.

A lot of people find this a lot harder to fix than they thought. That's because this isn't a bad habit, like spending too much time on video games or social media. This is a full blown addiction, with a behavioral and neurotransmitter component.

Most important, does your girlfriend know what you are trying to do and why?

 

And she is not willing to help you recover?

 

I don't know how necessary it is to give up sex and orgasm with your s/o to break porn and masturbation. Each person is different, of course.

 

Like Meshuga said, this is WAY more difficult than anyone thinks at first. Have you seen all the links and resources already? I can re-post them or pm you. There has been a lot of good things written, videos, even Terry Crews did a set of YouTube videos that are good to watch. You need to learn about the addiction process, that will help.

 

Sounds like:

• You feel the obligation to please your girlfriend, but at the same time you don't want it.
  
• You have another goal in mind, but you cannot see it clearly enough, and therefore, you cannot reach it.

Can that be the case ?

 

Here it is from another poster who helped me. Hope it helps you too.

 

I don't really understand how and why not having sex with your partner can help recover from porn or masturbation addiction... Sounds counter-intuitive.
