    I slipped up here and there after going strong for a while but I'm back on the wagon.

    Honestly even though I failed I'm still watching p*rn way less than I was, and I was able to maintain a boner the other day when I hooked up with one of my customers.

    Yeah. It's honestly way harder than I thought it would be. I wouldn't even watch p*rn all that much, but it still effects my mental psyche so for that reason alone I have to quit.

    So to have an addiction, wouldn't you have to yearn to watch p*rn every second of the day? @jacoby were you watching p*rn every second of the day or at any chance you got?

    You know what's funny about this thread is it hits home for me. I've had on and off issues with p*rn too even in my relationship. I see a therapist and work it out there but it's not easy man. I still watch p*rn some but not as much as I used to. I realize I've got an attractive and loving partner. Nothings ever been wrong with her. It's all upstairs for me. Now that being said, I've gone off a ton of antidepressants in the last month and I've really gotten my sex drive back. It's pretty nice. Kudos on whacking it less my friend. I think you'll find it helps a lot more than you thought.

    Yep, that's how it works.

    Not a doctor, but: viagra is fun as hell.

    I relapsed a few times since I made this thread. I went through a depressive stage where I gave up completely and was watching p*rn every night.

    I've been clean for about 3 weeks and haven't had a single erection and my libido is zero. I am completely unable to have sex. I read about the "flatline" that people experience shortly after no-fap, and it appears I'm going through this now. I hope I can get back to normal soon. I cannot underestimate just how damaging p*rn has been for me throughout the years.
