10 Useful Strategies that Help You Quit Porn

Watching porn is a common problem with teens and adults as well. Once you begin to view pornography on a regular basis, it does, indeed, become addictive, and it affects the way you view the opposite sex, relationships, and sex in general.

There are countless stories of the negative effects of porn on individuals – both married and single.

Let’s learn about useful strategies on how to quit porn.

1. Get rid of Porn materials

Clear your hard drive and delete all pornography materials on your mobile or laptop. Delete your search history and anything that might help you access these contents again.

2.Install anti-porn software on your computer and mobile devices

There are many programs available, but in most cases you will need a friend to create the password for you in secret, so you are not able to bypass the block.

3.Fill your time with other activities

Frequent boredom may contribute to pornography addiction. If you spend your free time bored and alone, the temptation to seek out porn will be more difficult to resist. Find something else to occupy yourself.

4.Identify your triggers

Keep a notebook to write in any time you crave pornography or watch it. Write down a description of the scene directly before the craving started, including your mood, what you were doing, and how you were feeling that day.

Stress, lack of sleep, friends who engage in or talk about porn, or easy access to pornography are all possible triggers.

5. Strategically plan to thwart your triggers

When possible, avoid triggers altogether. If seeing semi-erotic TV ads is a trigger, avoid watching programs that may have that kind of content. Remember that we are told by our creator to lower our gaze.

6. Seek professional help

If attempting to quit pornography on your own is too difficult or causing too much stress in your life, seek advice from a professional therapist or join a professional program to help you quit this addiction.

7. Renew your intention and repentance

Renew your intention everyday and ask Allah to forgive you and help you refrain from this sin.

8. Try fasting whenever possible

Fasting is a good way to make us refrain from sins. It also boosts spirituality and self discipline.

9. Make Duaa

Ask Allah to help you and guide you. He will never let you down.

10. Never give up

No matter how many times we collapse, we can start a new and ask Allah for forgiveness.
