Personal Change Blog: Entry 4

 

It has now been 3 weeks since I have watched pornography, and I am slowly getting used to not watching it. I still get urges frequently to watch pornography, but now I am beginning to feel that I have more control over them and can overcome them with much more ease than before. In social settings, I now feel much less anxious and more relaxed, which when I was watching pornography was not something that would be a typical experience. This sense of calmness has given me a boost of confidence, as I now feel I am more outgoing and attentive in social settings. According to an article I read, the 14 -90-day period of quitting porn is where your libido flatlines. This a side effect I am currently experiencing, and as a young man its hard to not think about this. This has caused to constantly question if there is something wrong with my physical health, although I have a healthy lifestyle. Because of this constant worrying I have been feeling a great amount of regret; this would not be happening if I did not watch as much pornography. After reading about porn addiction and reflecting on my blog entries, I have come to terms that I am addicted to pornography. I don’t feel any shame admitting that I am addicted, and if anything I think that by admitting, my willingness and commitment to quitting pornography will fortified.
