    Hi all,
    My question is despite trying so hard and going through so much motivational videos on internet, it still is impossible to turn away from porn. So i decided to try nofap as it was suggested by a friend few months ago. I want to completely stop porn, however it seems impossible. Any strong suggestion would be highly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    You can download various website blockers and put all your popular porn sites on the list.

    I think the best thing to do would be to get away from internet. You need something to occupy your time and your hands, and whenever those lustful thoughts occur, you need to recognize them and resolve to go do something else.

    I know it's hard. I have failed repeatedly since I joined. I could blame the turmoil of my life and try to rationalize my PMO behavior as a temporary escape from the stress and anxiety. But ultimately those are excuses and my fault is a lack of willpower and concentration.

    I think the problem is that you position yourself in a way that you have access to your computer, internet and porn as a result.

    Maybe you should go out more and don't give yourself the chance to lock yourself in your room and sit behind your desk using your computer which is connected to high speed internet.

    Go out more and stay away from your computer as much as possible.

    Maybe you can use your computer at a coffee shop or a local library instead whenever you need to.

    No one ever said that overcoming PMO addiction is easy.

    If you think that you can overcome this addiction from comfort of you room, you are sadly mistaken.

    You need to change your environment to change yourself.

    You need to push yourself to accomplish anything in life.

    Thanks @HuwhiteMale and @Arkady. I think i will refrain from using internet while am alone and i was thinking of deactivating my data plan for few weeks and see the difference. I tried to stay away from POM and was succesfull for a week but then the following week the problem started. Maybe its the stress which pulls the attention to POM as a final resource for mental satisfaction. Sometimes i feel POM addiction is like drug addiction where one can't give into the temptation. Thanks again guys for the advice.
