I would like to hear some other peoples journeys about their porn addiction. I think it would help me as I’m just starting my journey. After a couple of months, has anyone been able to get their arousal back in real women ? Also as a heavy user for years could it really take up to the whole year? And even longer.?  
Thanks

Hey man. I was addicted to porn and masturbation for a long time. My personal story, I don’t know if you believe in God or anything, but I got prayed for one day, and I kid you not, from that very day I never once again got the desire to cum. Never. Although, my brain had to relearn how to be attracted to women who weren’t porn models. This process took probably up to 10 months before I began to be attracted to normal women again. I hope this helps

Feel like I am at the start of this journey too, I was able to quit for 3 months but then relapsed out of frustration when I felt not different

Feel like I have hardly any sex drive or attraction, but yet I still get the pull to do porn

Curious in your ten months did you start seeing any progress along the way and if you masturbated without porn during that time?

Middle-silver-scorpion, I guess I should’ve made that point clearer. When I stopped, porn stopped and masturbating stopped. I just stopped one day. It never came back and I haven’t done it since for over a year now

Great question I am the same I would really want to know too . Being addicted to porn. For 15 years I haven’t stopped. I’m 27 now, I’ve got no attraction in real women it’s destroyed my life.

I’m in a similar boat. I’ve stopped watching porn for around 4 months now but I’m still struggling in the bedroom. I’ve had problems maintaining an erection during sex for a long time and it’s hard ( forgive the pun) to not feel frustrated as I’m yet to feel anything has improved. I’m curious though about how far the no poem thing goes as I regularly get insta type underwear model images pop up on my socials and obviously don’t mind a glance at these as I scroll. Do I need to work out a way to block these to or just keep being patient.

Having previously watched porn most days since I was 15 and using as a coping mechanism in 2020/2021. I’ve not watched porn since the ID verification came into effect in the UK in July. Keep at it, you will probably move to a different means of getting dopamine hit (whether working out, gaming, on your phone) but it gets better over time. I’ve been able to finish from intercourse with my partner regularly for the first time in our relationship. The benefits of not doing it outweigh the enjoyment / dopamine of doing it

Man honestly this been the hardest thing ever I quit alcohol been 1 year sober and I was a heavy drinker daily, but porn I can’t even go a week. I’m 28 in march, this has got a massive grip on me the damage I’ve done to my brain it will take me years to be able to have a solid sex life, I guess the longer you being a porn addict the longer it will take to get off?. and for your dopamine to fully reset to normal attraction to women. It’s so hard cause I don’t have anyone to talk to About it I’m thinking about therapy maybe that might help me
