How do I quit porn? I realize it’s warped my mind and I’m ashamed. And I feel even worse about it because Im a woman

do you have specific triggers? whatever app you use or website, you should be able to block it/set screen time limits if you have an iphone. start small, if you watch it however many times a day cut that down little by little. it’s a work in progress and you may mess up, that is okay! i hope you’re able to overcome this 💜

You can switch to spicy books? I mean it’s not a total solution but at least they’re typically written by women for women .

I think that’s still porn. I just want to quit it completely. I’m not saying I’m not allowed to get off I just don’t want to watch porn to do it

Yeah but it might be a good way for weening off, like the nicotine patches or gum for quitting cigarettes. You’ll start using your imagination instead of in your face visuals and then eventually you can just go to your imagination without the books

I was using Twitter. I deactivated my account and deleted the app completely. As far as I triggers I don’t know. I just get horny
