I had a sad break up and was hung up on a my ex. We never had ex sex or anything but i really liked having sex with her so i watched porn for almost a year very consistently and only porn stars who kinda looked like her. I would just imagine my ex in all the scenes since i couldn’t have sex with her in real life. It was a very unhealthy habit and i am pleased to say that i do not do that anymore
I definitely use porn to escape some mental situations and feelings. I still have to explore and understand it better, though
I would watch porn after work to relax and de-stress. I think this made a habit and I’m afraid that it will affect my relationship
Ive been thinking about this for a while now. I think now thatbi use porn to destress or if I was bored.
I’m still not sure l exactly why I do it. It often happens whenever I see some minority hot content on Instagram, and then I get the urge. Is this bad? I don’t know
Honestly I think my trigger is boredom. It normally happens when I’m just sat home alone with nothing to do.
It’s to the point where I can’t even determine if I do it from actual horniness or just boredom
I be bored and stressed from the long day and that feeling from fuming after a stress day just puts me at ease instead of with my wife which is crazy to me but that’s just what it is
The porn log seems interesting. I think ive tried it in the past but didnt follow it through. I will give it a try. For me the most important thing is to break a bad habit of turning to porn when im stressed or negative feelings comes up.
I need to slow down when it comes to watching porn and make it less automatic and analyze why I’m doing what I’m doing
Only masturbate when horny and use audio or imagination alone
I want to slow down and break down why I want to watch porn to break the loop of habit
I no longer feel like an outcast just because I occasionally watch porn…
This reinforces the things I already knew - porn isn’t disastrous if it’s a conscious choice. If it’s a habit or a coping mechanism, I want to make alternative choices.
I never really realized I was on autopilot for so long… I thought I was always watching porn because I was horny, but doing it out of habit/boredom/distraction takes away much of the enjoyment of masturbation. It’s a chore.
