You need to install a porn filter on your computer. Don't ever surf unprotected. A good filter program is Optenet PC which you can get at optenetpc.com. Be sure to change the password to something you won't remember so that you won't be tempted to circumvent the filter. You have made the first step by recognizing excessive pornography use is a problem in your life. Now you need to change your habits. Use the filter as a first line of defense to block access to this material from your computer. Then look at how you can alter the factors that lead to this behavior. See these tips: "Change routines and environments that lead to pornography usage. Avoid high risk situations." "Learn new ways of coping with strong feelings like anxiety, loneliness, anger, depression, and boredom." "Identify activities that can help you relax, enjoy yourself, and feel refreshed."
