What are some ways to kick porn addiction?

Jericho

Marry a pornstar.

I get the joke, but, frankly, I've been amazed at the guys I've known with

It almost never has anything to do with sex itself but trying to cope with some greater issue

It’s not the with who, but the how much imo.. and u you can rarely

You can start by telling your friend it’s not an addiction.

He’ll be so relieved.

Didn’t say it wasn’t a problematic

Porn addiction is actually a thing. Of course the term "addiction" is over-used

garyfan

More often than not it is more a compulsion than an addiction.

Sometimes it is & sometimes it isn’t. Using that term when it isn’t is harmful just like not using it when it is.

Two promises from apostles in helping:

As a bishop, indexing has been nothing short of miraculous

Huh?!?!? For porn?

My stake president swears by it

LeslieKnope

So instead of porn addiction they are bored to death

pink22

Dying does that. For sure

Idahofallsblue

Exactly

pink22

7/17/19 4:47pm

Yep. It's been the one constant that has helped people at all levels of use.

Hoss Bonaventure

7/16/19 7:37pm

The Church made a video about this where a guy talks about how it helped him.

Think about it. What else could be more effective at killing your libido?

Odysseus

If you are indexing then you aren't doing other things. It's avoiding idle time,

Like most addictions, it's a coping mechanism for an underlying issue.

Replace it with a video game addiction

Get your bishop and loved ones you can trust on board. There is a power in

Family search. I served as a councilor to a bishop who said the family search

Garn

7/16/19 6:21pm

I wonder if they do family search in incognito mode out of habit sometimes

I'm skeptical that it's an addiction, but I'm not sure its helpful to focus on

Goliath

Have more intercourse

cougfanz

7/16/19 6:24pm

First good response so far

Jericho

7/16/19 6:26pm

Sadly it takes two for that particular tango. Lack a willing partner=no dice.

Sex is one of the hallmarks of a healthy marital relationship

Jericho

7/16/19 8:13pm

Well... yeah. Water is also wet. The point is, if that's not on the table...

Homercles

I have heard off the record stats that men that have sex once a week are much

johnnybyu

7/16/19 10:26pm

What if it's more than once a week? Is that even better?

Some common threads I've seen in people who make progress

No family history or indexing?

Yeah. He mentioned it in #6.

Recognize that this is NOT primarily about spirituality or morality.
