Dr. David Smith - How To Quit Porn (2nd Edition)
Finding community or religion (for some people)
Potentially having a group of like-minded people may help you reaffirm your beliefs and give you strength in the fight against porn. There is a reason why many beliefs around sex and masturbation have persisted for centuries and have underlay the foundations of prosperous societies. Spirituality teaches you the preciousness and value of sex and humanity. When understood correctly, it does not hold you back in any way, rather it saves you from the pain and suffering of unhealthy and immoral behaviors. Many in the recovery community have cited having a community behind them as an important aspect in their recovery. Experienced people can help you understand what you are going through, making you realize you’re not alone and that there is a better path. Get the help you need. The moral aspects are important too. You must maintain strong values and beliefs that you live by, in order to achieve anything meaningful. While being open to change, you must be strong-willed and strong-minded. In the light of day, many sexual thoughts seem completely irrational and you have no interest in acting on any of these. You must have a force in your life that holds you back from irrationality. A strong belief system can make a big difference. Christianity, Islam, and Judaism all frown upon masturbation, as a waste and desecration of our most valuable life force. It is untrue that billions blindly follow such commandments with a mindless fervor in strictly adhering to bygone and anachronistic tenets. There is true wisdom and logic in these teachings, with accurate conclusions that can only be observed by human experience over the course of thousands of years. East Asian religions value qi, the energy found in semen. Large amounts of food end up as drops of blood. And lots of blood is equivalent in value to drops of semen. This valuable fluid and energy cannot be wasted. Buddhism teaches the idea of escaping from the cycle of eternity. Even if these tenets do not resonate with your worldly beliefs, you must find a way to escape the misery and mundaneness that has led so many innocent souls into a vicious cycle of porn consumption. With an increasingly advanced and secular world has arisen increased incidences of depression, along with fundamentally the lack of meaning and understanding of life. There are difficulties to living as a youth in today’s world, where meaningless things are everywhere, but the most valuable things seem harder than ever to get. Try to harness the benefits of modernity while staying true to yourself and your beliefs. There is far more literature on this topic if you want to learn more. Again, this is just a suggestion I am offering. It may work for some people but not others. Build Your Mental Fortitude This is such a key topic that I have dedicated a section to focus on it. In addition to the advice already given, I would like to present techniques as well as psychological insights to improve the resilience of the mind. Remember porn addiction is an overwhelmingly mental problem. To overcome, you must have a strong mind that is aware of its own strengths and weaknesses. Mental mastery will help you across other aspects of life as well. Don’t wait for urges to happen before taking this advice. Like any other muscle, a powerful mind requires continuous practice when you are feeling alright, and correct execution of your game plan when you are facing difficult times. Download 0.56 Mb.
