Thanks for reading, @sisygoboom
It is an extremely difficult addiction to break. Some heroin addicts have said that it was harder to stop using porn than stopping heroin. I think the key is to refer back to Gabor Maté's perspective on this issue, which is, “Don’t ask: Why the addiction? Ask: Why the pain?”
I feel that it is impossible to break an addiction simply by saying, "Okay, I'm going to stop this now."
Relapse is almost inevitable.
Instead the cause must be excavated. Once the roots of the problem are pulled out of the ground, it can't regrow. For me, this required a lot of searching around in my past.
It has also helped to ask myself, as I would a kid, "Are you okay? What do you need?"
