For men feeling crippled by your relationship with porn

I can't seem to go a day without watching porn, and it's worrying me.

You’re not alone, and it’s time to break free from this cycle.

Ever feel like your porn use is out of control?

Real Talk:

You want to stop relying on porn, but you don’t know how to take the first step.

You might be thinking:

"Why do I keep turning to porn, even when I don’t want to?"

"I feel out of control, and it’s affecting my life."

"I’m scared of the impact this might have on my relationship."

“Maybe I need to just stop using porn altogether.”

If you’re like most men I meet as a sex therapist

you’ve heard these phrases (or said them to yourself).

01

Going cold turkey

"I promised myself I'd stop, but I keep going back to it."

02

Struggling with moderation

"I’ve tried cutting down, but I always end up watching it again."

03

The thought spiral

"I can't seem to stop thinking about it, even when I'm doing other things."

04

Can't relax without it

"I feel like I need porn just to relax or unwind. It’s becoming a coping mechanism for when I’m stressed or bored."

05

Affecting your relationship

"It’s affecting my relationship because I turn to porn more than my partner."

06

Worsening performance anxiety

“Watching porn sometimes makes me feel insecure about my own body and performance. I start comparing myself, and it affects my confidence.”

07

Feeling alone

"I’ve tried talking to friends about it, but I’m too embarrassed."

08

obsessing

"I find myself thinking about porn or planning the next time I can sneak in another 15 minutes of porn use."

What if you could explore your sexuality without shame?

Imagine feeling confident in your choices, understanding why you want what you want, and having the tools to manage your sexual health with clarity and compassion.

You’re constantly bombarded with mixed messages about porn

A quick search on Reddit and you're seeing stuff from the No Fap crowd telling you to quit cold turkey

“It’s the only way!” They say over and over again.

Then, you wind up in the religious corner of the internet and you're hit with content that makes you feel guilty and ashamed. Porn is a problem, but so is masturbation and self-pleasure? Wait, that doesn’t quite resonate with you. The next community you stumble on says that porn is normal and completely harmless, but if that’s true, why do you feel so awful about it?

Talking to your partner doesn’t work because they’re feeling hurt or insecure about your porn use, which just leads to more guilt and shame.

You keep searching for answers and find:

Porn is fine.

Porn is harmful.

All porn is empowering.

Porn is abusive to women.

Porn causes erectile dysfunction.

Porn is a healthy part of sexuality.

So many opposing views, and all ”backed” by supposed research.

It's all just a lot to deal with. No wonder you're feeling overwhelmed.

You’re constantly reading conflicting advice, from multiple “experts”

Claiming to be the ultimate solution to your struggles. But with so many voices giving polarized advice, it’s easy to feel lost, confused, and unsure of what’s right for you.

So many men struggle with porn use. I promise, you aren’t alone. In fact, I’m willing to bet you’ve tried many tactics to fix your relationship with porn.

Here’s what the men I’ve worked with

have tried without success

Been There Done That

Total Abstinence (No Fap)

Just quit cold turkey! The NoFap movement encourages complete abstinence from porn and masturbation as the path to recovery. It sounds simple: just stop, and you’ll regain control over your life.

And it is simple until your body goes on autopilot and you log onto your go-to site without thinking. Then, you’re watching porn when you promised yourself you wouldn’t. Now, you feel like a failure. You’re embarrassed, full of shame, and worry you’ll never break the habit. If only you had more self-discipline.

Been There Done That

Strict Porn Blockers

Set clear boundaries! Restrict your porn use to certain days or times, or even put content blockers on your computer and phone.

But soon, life gets stressful, and the limits you set become impossible to maintain. Either that, or you can’t stop thinking about the next time you’re “allowed” to watch porn. Breaking one rule leads to breaking another, and before long, you’re back where you started, weighed down by guilt and frustration. You start to wonder if there is something wrong with you.

Been There Done That

Relying on Willpower Alone

Just be stronger! Believe that sheer willpower is enough to resist the urge to watch porn. Push through the cravings and stay focused on your goal.

But then… willpower alone isn’t enough. When stress, boredom, or loneliness hit, your resolve weakens, and you find yourself turning back to porn. The disappointment of giving in again leads to self-blame and a sense of failure. If only you were stronger.

Been There Done That

Religious Accountability

Join the men’s accountability group. Seek forgiveness from your priest. Get in touch with how much God (or your higher power) hates porn, and hope the fear and guilt keep you away from the screen.

It works for a little while, and then one slip up, and the shame spiral

sends you back to your daily habit.

What about therapy?

Maybe you’ve tried traditional therapy with poor results

and you feel exhausted and ready to give up

It’s no wonder you’re tired and frustrated. You’ve tried all these approaches, only to find yourself back in the same place, struggling with guilt, shame, and a sense of failure. You might even feel like you’re the only one for whom lasting change is impossible.

here's the bottom line

You can take control of this.

There’s a better way to handle porn and your sex life

You don’t have to live in the extremes of either constantly using or completely cutting it out. I’ve seen it firsthand, working with hundreds of guys who’ve faced these same struggles and found a way through.

With all the mixed messages out there, figuring out what’s right for you can feel overwhelming. That’s why it’s important to block out the noise, get real with yourself, and decide on an approach that works for your life—one that respects your values, your relationships, and helps you stay in control.

That might mean quitting entirely, or maybe easing up a bit on the rigid rules. It’s your call.

You just need to learn how to make the decision that’s right for you.

But how?

Meet Dr. Mike

Hello, I’m Dr. Michael Stokes, but you can call me Dr. Mike. With over a decade of experience as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I’ve guided countless individuals through the complexities of sexual health. I’ve seen the struggles, the doubts, and the fears, and I know there’s a better way forward.

Here’s what I’ve learned after working with hundreds of men...

Recovering from porn addiction isn’t about willpower or morality

It’s not about whether you’re strong enough or righteous enough to stop—those old narratives don’t hold up to science.

Overcoming porn addiction is a neuroscientific process.

It’s not about whether you’re strong enough or righteous enough to stop—those old narratives don’t hold up to science.

Your brain, over time, has been wired to follow familiar paths—the quick dopamine hit from watching porn reinforces the habit.

But here’s the key: these pathways can be rewired. You can weaken the compulsion to return to porn and strengthen your brain’s natural desire for connection and intimacy. It’s not about fighting yourself. It’s about understanding how your brain works and using that knowledge to regain control.

Here’s How it Works

  1. Awareness

  2. Somatic Techniques

  3. Reframe and Replace Thoughts and Beliefs

  4. New Habits for Connection

  5. Accountability and Support

Once we’ve developed awareness and learned to use somatic techniques to regulate we can dive into

How to get what you truly want sexually

Without the guilt or shame

This is where my signature framework, The Autonomous Sexuality Model comes into play.

  • Your sexuality isn’t a problem.

  • Your fantasies aren’t wrong.

  • Your desires deserve understanding, not judgment.

  • Your sexual expression is a part of your overall well-being.

  • You can break free from shame and embrace your true self.

  • Your sexual choices should reflect your values, not societal pressure.

  • You are in control of your sexual narrative, and it’s time to write it your way.

  • In working with hundreds of men, I’ve discovered the exact strategies that help men approach their sexuality without shame, without guilt, and with the confidence to approach their porn use in a new way.

  • I’ve seen marriages on the brink of divorce come back better and stronger after using these strategies.

  • I’ve seen men in a full-on crisis about their porn use find ways to enjoy porn without shame.

  • I’ve also seen men decide they never wanted to watch porn again because it didn’t align with the sex life they wanted.

Testimonials

Why this method works for everyone

No matter where you're starting

Bill, a 42-year-old CEO working 60-70 hours a week, came to me after seeing multiple therapists without success. His marriage was on the verge of collapse due to his escalating porn use, which he relied on to disconnect and relax from his stressful life.

Through our work together, we uncovered that porn wasn’t the real issue—it was his lack of relaxation and balance. By introducing activities like going to the gym, playing golf, and practicing mindfulness, Bill significantly reduced his porn use. We also explored healthy porn habits in the context of his marriage, leading to more connected sex and improved communication with his wife.

here's the deal:

01

Neuroplasticity makes change possible

No matter your background, everyone’s brain is capable of being rewired to reduce the compulsion for porn.

02

Cognitive and somatic exercises

Combining mental techniques with body-based practices, like meditation, helps weaken compulsive behaviors.

03

Find power in your sexuality

Shifting beliefs around your sexual identity strengthens your motivation as new habits are formed.

04

Support is essential

You’re not alone, and knowing you have support is crucial for long-term success.

Once you start rewiring your brain and practicing techniques to stop urges in the moment, the compulsion for porn weakens. Then, you can explore your true sexual desires without shame or guilt,

With the right support, you could be in a completely different place just a few weeks from now

feeling more in control and confident in your sexuality

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this course just about quitting porn?

No, this course isn't solely focused on quitting porn. It's designed to help you understand your relationship with porn, explore the underlying reasons behind your use, and guide you towards making choices that align with your values and personal well-being. Whether you want to reduce, quit, or redefine how you engage with porn, this course supports your individual journey.

I’ve tried to quit or cut back on porn before and failed. How is this course different?

Many people struggle with traditional approaches that rely on willpower alone. This course takes a different approach by addressing the emotional, psychological, and societal factors that contribute to porn use. It provides tools for emotional regulation, mindfulness, and personal reflection, helping you build a healthier relationship with your sexuality.

Will this course make me feel ashamed or guilty about my porn use?

Absolutely not. This course is rooted in a sex-positive, non-judgmental approach. The goal is to reduce shame and guilt, empowering you to understand and take control of your sexuality in a way that aligns with your values and desires.

How will this course help me with the feelings of guilt and shame associated with porn use?
