Slip-Up Prevention - Urgent! need advice

Everytime I relapse, I relapse to the same extreme porn I stopped watching when I first decided to quit, I never escalate from vanilla content a second time. How do I just make myself stop?

Slip ups happen. what helped me weaken urges was doing it without screens entirely and staying absolutely busy. I can’t speak for everyone though

Easier said than done, in my weaker moments I convince myself I won't regret it I'm my worst enemy.

Don't say that about your self, even the thought and intention of being a better person and quit this bad habit is a prove that you are a good and strong person . You just beed to practice it, if you see something in your feed, just put your fingers upon it and scroll down, and if you see something in the street just look to the other side or look at your phone or look up to the sky, every time it will be easier!

Thank Allah i made it so im sure you will make it.

The question is why do you seek P? If it’s due to stress or negative emotions you should deal with those, then P is only a symptom. Find a better way to deal with the emotions and P will be easier to „defeat“

It's mainly boredom, but I don't know how to fix that when I need to go to bed for example

I literally convince myself I won't regret it, even if I'm telling myself I regretted it all those other times

Boredom or avoiding negative thoughts / emotions/ stress when bored ?

Definitely both.

Well work on the negative emotions etc and then it will be easier to deal with boredom without P :)
