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.

View allI'm Nikhil Gunjal from Ghatkopar, Mumbai, and I'm really worried because for the past two years, I've been dealing with what I believe are effects of black magic. It feels like someone is harming my body, and it's really frustrating not being able to identify who might be doing this. I'm convinced it's something external causing harm and even have proof to support my concerns. Can you offer any guidance or suggest what steps I can take to address this situation?
