Hello everyone, new here. I've tried many times in the past to stop and occasionally succeeded for a while. I noticed that I mostly act out when I have trouble in my marriage or socially, but every now and then it'll happen spontaneously (like that terrible morning where you don't even go to work because you decide to just "check something out" and that turns into an entire whirlpool of events leading up to the bathroom...).
I figured I'd give some of the tools on this site a try. The 90 Day chart so far has not done it for me, and confuses me as well (the part where you have to input two different dates, and the one date that I put it never seems correct?). Perhaps when I see that I'm advancing then I'll check in to the chart again. For now I guess I'll try the partner/sponsor program and see how that goes.
My wife doesn't know and I hope she never will. This issues is quickly ruining my life and I am desperate to have it stop.
One of the ideas I found on this site which I liked is that the religious aspect of things isn't really what we are afraid of; more the social part of it. Also, I found one website which goes into great detail describing the way your brain works when it comes to porn addiction, and being mindful of it has really helped me out several times.
A couple of other things also helped me out, but I don't have much time right now so maybe I'll post later on.
May Hashem grant us all success!
