This was one of the questions we received within the first 2 weeks of operating; "Can I stop watching porn but, still masturbate?"
Unfortunately, it's hard for any addict to imagine his life without his drug; it's like taking away cocaine from a cocaine addict, what would he do then? He'd kill to take his drug back!
With Porn Addiction it's almost the same thing, every porn addict falls into self-deceptive thoughts, your mind loves comfort and it finds some kind of temporary relief in the process, so it will play mind games not to let you quit!
When we talk about addiction, we're mainly talking about deception; every addict has a toolbox that he uses to try and keep his addiction, despite the amount of destruction he's suffering from.
Every temporary solution will lead to relapse, I want you always to remember this statement, and if you tried this or any other game you'd fail, and you'd have then to start all over!
Also, masturbation is directly related to pornography; here I mean all kinds of pornography whether it's videos, photos, or whatever.
Even if you decided to depend on your imagination; let me clarify that you're just repeating what you saw before, therefore you're still in the porn addiction circle!
To quit porn addiction and liberate yourself and own your freedom; you have to be honest with yourself, you have to know that it's hard and there are no shortcuts, you have to face it as it is and give up your self-deceiving thoughts.
