I have usually relapsed within a fortnight. I feel immense shame and so avoid “burdening” my partner with my sex drive as I don’t know how to initiate sex normally with her anymore. So eventually my needs boil over and I go back.

When I go “cold turkey” off of porn, every day feels like a second that I’m underwater…1…2…3… I feel like eventually I’m going to gasp for air and watch again.

I stopped trying to quit years ago. I eventually learned that it never addressed the shame. Now the issue is just not being secretive about it.

I will quit for a while and be ‘good’ especially if I am busy or physically with my partner for a period of time. Then when I am alone the urges come back and I always eventually relapse, often worse than before and then feel really guilty.
