This isn’t about me. I have no horn to toot here. I just want you guys to see that quitting this mental and emotional monstrosity IS possible. I’ve had a few people on this sub ask me about my story and how I quit watching porn. I’ve posted or commented bits and pieces before, but […]

Quitting digital porn use is a great idea, but semen retention may not be for you if you’re single – especially if you have OCD tendencies. If you don’t have a partner, find the right frequency of porn-free ejaculation for you. Do keep in mind that, generally speaking, the less you ejaculate, the more you […]

YBOP COMMENTS: New study reports large percentage of child porn (CP) users have no sexual interest in children. It was only after years of viewing adult porn, resulting in habituation to new genre after new genre, that porn users eventually sought more extreme material and genres, eventually escalating into CP. Researchers point to the nature […]
I started regarding pornography as addictive after a friend, a physician’s assistant working in a urology clinic approached me with concern. He told me that several emerging adult men, ages 18-25, we’re coming into the clinic with problems associated with Erectile Dysfunction (ED).

27m. I’m not sure I’ve ever gone longer than 10 days without porn since I was a preteen, but here I am! I’m not sure if I would have qualified as an addict, so maybe this sub can shed some light. I have never tried a porn free challenge. I watched for about 5-10 minutes […]
