If I masturbate without looking at porn is that fighting the addiction because I reminesce on porn I have already saw and feel like its the same thing

Try to not touch your dick. Watch nofap videos study tantric sex and semen retention. It takes awhile but once you master it you have mastered yourself

It's got to be a step in the right direction, you're using your mind to remember instead of searching for porn online.

Oh yeah. Doing all the things i outlined hurts like hell for about six months. Then you experience peace and power like you have never known.

Meditation and working out helps
