ok. so i started looking at porn at about 13ish when i found a magazine on the street. I didn't give it a whole lot of attention at first but eventually i started looking at sites. now i cant stop.

I have tried to stop so many times. i have gone about two weeks then i fall back into the same bad habit. I am hoping that by sharing my story it will give me some strength. If any of you know of a similar story i could read up on for help or have any ideas to help me stop please let me know.

The main thing is that i really want to do this on my own so that after i can be able to say that i stopped looking on my own.

please respond.

Hi IW

Is it possible to break this habit on your own? My answer is a definite yes. But of course, it takes a fair amount of strategy, commitment and (very importantly) self-forgiveness.

There are a lot of inspirational posts on this site. It can be helpful to read about the pitfalls of cold turkey; something we all try, often over and over and over again. There are better approaches to self-help.

And how about an insightful story about the guilt trip cycle? A lot of helpful points and comments raised there.

I hope that sharing your story here is a useful first step, and you are very welcome to feedback here.
