Hi first time viewer here… thank you Dan for your courage and insight. I have no doubt this video will help many men. I’m actually several months in successfully quitting porn and for those just starting please realize that you can do it, it can be done and you will beat this. These videos are always a huge help. In moments of weakness the best thing you can do is to distract yourself. So if you find yourself on the couch feeling weak and feeling that you’re about to break you need to immediately get off the couch and just do something…anything… I would jog around the block or go to Lowe’s and walk around or go to a loved ones house and just visit. As quick as the shameful thoughts appear is as quick as they disappear. Those impure sexual thoughts are to be held hostage by your mind… like literally held in captivity until you the grand master decides what to do with them. and then you starve those thoughts…by not feeding it, it withers away and dies. Keep starving them until they realize there is no food to be found here. A Strong journey is ahead my fellow men.

[@DataWalkerSolutions]

its called urge surfing. you don't have to beat the urge you just have to outlast it. the brain will get bored and move onto something else. instead of resist and resist harder, just delay delay delay. I'm gonna finish game and then Im gonna do this....delay delay delay, your mind will move on.

[@Ziivokun]

I'm also a first time viewer, but this is the cold turkey I need to eat. Also, prayer is a good weapon against it. I've been praying to God that He help take away this unhealthy addiction, finally setting me free of it since sex is meant to be a wholly intimate and committed act, not a vice to be vilified. Also, bring my mind back to last year before it started to become the source of my procrastination. For the past several months, a day hardly goes by without me trying to wank off. It's time to start eating the turkey, making it taste like chicken.

[@jc4evur661]

As a fellow Christian I understand. When I was a new Christian I had certain addictions (alcohol, pot) that I felt were negatively affect my walk. So I started praying that if the Lord wanted me to quit those things that He would take the desire for those things away. In otherwords, I put it on Him, because on my own I couldn't quit. Fast forward to today, It's been decades since I've had a drink or smoked pot, and no longer struggle with either...try praying this way with porn.

Thirty days? That's great! It's just a habit....habit's can be broken...but my question is 'Was the porn harmful to your life?' The hardest 'part' is late in the evening when I truly have nothing better 'to do.' I work hard, study, and I am single. I live a healthy lifestyle by eating right and exercising. A healthy sexual libido is a sign of 'good health.' So where does a single man direct this Libido when they don't want a partner? Ummm.....i really don't know if I 'want' to stop. An 'addiction' is something that Negatively effects a person's life. If porn isn't negatively affecting my life, why would I want to quit completly. I would say that if I were in a relationship and watching porn that wouldn't be good for the relationship UNLESS your parnter watches with you.

I feel like you just narrated the last 5 years of my life! from the break up to the results of abstinence. I am massively heartbroken, but that experience made me realize I have been allowing vice and distractions to destroy my relationships and the connection to myself. Porn is been there since I was 13. Always replacing the connection I could have had with my partners with cheap quick dopamine. I decided to quit almost 6 months ago. Including alcohol, coffee and social media. You are spot on when you say quitting must have a purpose. I did it because I learned that I was avoiding my feelings because I can't deal with the anxiety and stress. Now there is no more hiding from myself. The results are incredible and much more than I expected. I am more connected to my friends, I am more successful in my work, I feel proud of myself, I am slowly becoming my best friend.

In line with Dan's advice, I'm going to pick up piano again to occupy myself so I'm in the works of buying one.

@@Dank_Farrik Yep, time to fix corn addiction instead of working through the s_itty childhood. People these days...

Bruce Lee as the painting behind you is proud of you, I saw it moving

[@CScott-wh5yk]

One of your best videos - thanks for sharing. Do you recommend abstaining from “cranking it” too while quitting?

[@danfounder]

I did that and it worked for me.

[@Mzansi74]

Thanks for this!

[@luxferremusic]

If somebody say porn is not good I know this guy's is smart.

[@AllanRochez]

thank you for sharing your story, man. Hope this video makes a positive impact on society for generations to come!

[@joshscott-savage8339]

Thank you for your candor!

[@rod1424]

This is the reason why the matrix doesnt fully block porn in the internet and in media in general

[@RobertRuiz-k3f]

Thank you for your testimony ✊

[@therichbuddha3277]

This is great! A good history of how we all became dopa-addicts. This bio-chemical compulsion is a nasty mofo. New sub.

[@danfounder]

Welcome aboard!

[@Mraren01]

Thank you for making this video

Short term reachable goals is the path to achieve almost anything.

[@ollieh452]

One thing I don't hear anyone talking about is the connection between loneliness and porn addiction. When I lived with family I rarely looked at it but I moved out, am living on my own now and I know I look at it too much. If I had company (even a pet) it would really help. Porn steps in to fill the void of loneliness.

[@Shaolin91z]

Peace in Christ surpasses all understanding. Bible study class gives you peace. There's no loneliness in HIS PEACE. Thanks Lord for your salvation and peace

[@MD-hd1cp]

Good advice 👍

[@danfounder]

Thanks!

[@santu7066]

I'm going through the same same situation u went through and man... this is really helpful, thanks a lot!

[@jeremyr8793]

Im on this decision at age 35. Its been in my life since maybe 10 years old. Also what camera do you use for your videos lol

[@danfounder]

Good to hear. Camera is a canon. I have no idea the type tho.

[@ZajimKujovic-j9k]

I had the same experience! I wrote a book about that part of my life and in couple of months will be published. I already started the process of publishing the book. I completely understand what you went throguh Dan.

[@BigA.71]

Hey Dan, I just came across your channel. The first video that I watched was "I'm 44. If you are in your 20s, watch this." (I am 53 this year.) I was also addicted to porn when someone brought a porn magazine back from the US (I live in Singapore) to our boarding school. I was 12. It wasn't until I was 16 that I came across video porn. Back in the late 80s, porn was only available on VHS, and you really had to go to some shady places in Malaysia and Singapore to find them. Porn short circuits your brain, and the temptation is so great that it will lead you to take some significant risks, and I am not talking about our parents finding out. Where I grew up, it could mean getting into trouble with the Law. Kudos to you for being open and transparent in sharing your story. It takes great courage and vulnerability to do so. You are providing excellent public service. I am rooting for you, and I am going to learn from your KZbin channel how I can share my story and inspire others.

[@YCKIDesign]

100% been thinking about it for a while now is the time!!!

[@persieprince9345]

Amazing video, porn is really bad is much worse than other bad habits like drinking and smoking

[@Tory-JJ]

thanks I was hoping to find a guy like you. I want to quit. I am with my long time partnet and I want it gone. ENTIRELY.

[@KaroMal93]

I'm so glad that I stumbled upon your channel

[@AshTheDuke]

Its so hard still trying not to watch it

[@TVResults]

There are support groups that can help. Check out SPAA

[@braikka]

I found that I had become a souless shell. I was addicted & I needed the 'hit'. But, afterwards I would just feel regret & empty. I decided to quit & give my life to Jesus🙏. It's the best decision I ever made

[@edgetheedgy3418]

I stopped watching p*rn and on the third month I achieved enlightenment I started levitating and everything in my life started being cool and good I even won the lottery and the president came and gave me the key of the city now I'm mayor soon I'll be president on month 4!

[@bolivar4537]

No you didn't, coomer.

[@Cleedek]

Okay, I will test it too! Thank you for inspiring me.

[@ekowapeja]

😂😂😂

[@prettydecenthuman]

I had been thinking this for a long time. It has been four or five days. And I have tried before. But this time I feel different. I am not focusing on quitting. I am focusing on replacing it with real life pleasure; like doing what I like or talking with people or reading romance.

[@christophmeech]

I have a question about this. In the video, its not clear to me if you mean by stopping to watch pron, you also mean to stop m*sturbating as well. Better question, what is your take on this. Do you think that only quitting to watch it, makes a difference if you still do it but without any distraction and only by yourself and your mind? Thabk you in advance!

[@ayosgsauce]

Great video, thanks for your transparency.

[@JIMN26]

Fasting is the best way to get over any addiction, whether lust, alcohol or sugar addiction.

[@jayare2583]

Yea quitting porn makes it easier to get on a healthy diet.

[@Verociity]

how does fasting help rewire the brain from addiction?

[@JIMN26]

@Verociity Not sure the scientific reason, but I know fasting increases your self discipline and resets your body and minds chemistry. I speak from experience. I'm not a religious person, but Jesus and other spiritual leaders did fasting for similar reasons. It is time proven and overlooked in today's society.

Thank you 🙏
