[Pony8001]

I have been addicted to p*** for over a decade now and i can say that my life has been changed irreparably for the worse. Nothing good has come from being hooked on this stuff but the good that would have come from a real relationship in place of this has been lost forever. I can tell now that nothing will ever change if i keep falling into the same cycles that lead to absolutely nowhere. I know im not the only on that feels this way, ive tried many times but its so hard to quit. I just know though that if i had stopped a year or two ago my life now would be completely different and i would be a different person. Humans are programmed to pursue novelty but at some point we have to overcome human nature for the good of the future, ive made too many mistakes not to know what i am doing wrong. There has to be more to life than just living behind a screen and im sick of it. 

Im done, im quitting now and if i dont succeed i will pay the price of failure.

>but the good that would have come from a real relationship in place of this has been lost forever.
No it hasn't. We're all just in a shitty spot when it comes to women. There are a shit ton of us incels on this board. Women are fucking shit right now, and it's going to take pain to change them.
>I can tell now that nothing will ever change if i keep falling into the same cycles that lead to absolutely nowhere.
Correct. But that's all of us.
>I just know though that if i had stopped a year or two ago my life now would be completely different and i would be a different person.
You weren't ready to stop then. You hadn't hit the precipice yet. You're there now.
> Humans are programmed to pursue novelty
True. But porn is only novel the first few times you watch it. After that, it's a rerun after a rerun after a rerun, but with slightly different packaging.
>There has to be more to life than just living behind a screen and im sick of it.
Aye. We all spend too much time staring at any screen, be it a computer, tv, phone, or otherwise. Life has drug us into this shit, and it's hard to dig out.

For porn: you gotta figure out why you keep chasing porn. It's not just the lack of a girlfriend or wife. Porn can be an addiction, just like all the hard drugs out there. You're using it as a crutch, to keep you going along, because there's some wound inside your heart that you can't fix. I know I'm there a lot, and I know there are a bunch of guys on this board that are the same. Everyone has different pain, so you have to take the time to stand back from yourself, and look to see what exactly is hurting you so bad that you need to watch some porn. Others do the same, but with heroin, cocaine, etc. This goes deeper than a need for a girlfriend. I can't see what it is with you, but it's a whole lot deeper than that. You gotta start looking into yourself.

While I support you, I think you have too really ask, is it an addiction, or a getaway. Is it harming you, or offering you an escape into fantasy. 

I wish you the best!

Going cold turkey is touch, but I wish you the best of luck. Find or pick up old hobby's, best way to keep your mind occupied.

Sounds like watching porn is haveing a very negative impact on your life, good for you for working to make a positive change. Even if you do not succeed, most people do not on their first try, what is important is that you continue to try. Good luck to you

If you have no separation then it is a bad thing, don't be like olichan12, he hates the world.
