If you are feeling unhappy with the way you use Internet pornography and are finding it difficult to gain control of your usage, here is the second of Porn Recovery UK’s tips to help.

Try to alter your routine of use on your computer. Often, patterns of behaviour build up that you don’t even notice. If you alter them, you have a chance of becoming much more conscious of what you’re doing. If you use your computer alone, and it’s a laptop, try taking it into a public space – even the living room might count as a ‘public’ space! Switch your computer off when you finish using it. This way you will always have a few moments to think about what you are going to use it for when you next switch it on. Remember, if you change your routine you will notice what you are doing and this can be an important step for change and recovery of your negative habit with porn.
