I've been trying to stop watching porn and it's really hard. I've tried different things like going to the gym and playing outdoor games to keep busy, but the urge is still there. I'm looking for advice on how I can overcome this habit. Any suggestions would be really helpful.

To overcome the urge to watch porn, consider combining your existing physical activities with additional strategies: identify triggers, practice mindfulness and meditation, seek support from friends, family, or a therapist, utilize website blockers or apps like Freedom, SelfControl, or Cold Turkey, and engage in hobbies or creative pursuits that promote emotional fulfillment and self-expression.

I've been feeling short of breath sometimes, and my doctor said it's due to anxiety. He put me on Doxolin tablets, which I take twice a day. I'm curious if taking Doxolin is really necessary or beneficial since the breathlessness is because of anxiety, and not an actual respiratory issue. Is it common to use Doxolin in cases like this? Could it have any side effects I should be aware of?
Doxolin, likely a variant of Doxepin, is an antidepressant and anxiolytic, which can help alleviate anxiety-related shortness of breath; taking Doxolin tablets as prescribed by your doctor should help manage your anxiety symptoms, including shortness of breath, without significant side effects, but monitor your breathing, mood, and overall well-being
