TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Introduction
Let’s skip the bullshit.
The incredibly addicting super stimuli frying your brain and destroying your life needs to
go.
Most of us have been addicted since our teenage years, some earlier than that.
Our brains have grown with this addiction, it’s a very part of our being.

TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
There are many sources on how to quit pornography, but none worked for me.
Until I combined all knowledge and created something new.
“You said that you'll help me break free within 22 days, but you also said that I will fail and
that this fight is eternal?” You might say.
This book will teach you everything you need to break free from porn in those 22 days.
But literally EVERYTHING.
I have a whole chapter filled with strategies and activities that’ll help you in battle.

TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Theoretical framework
Your porn addiction consists of the following parts
- Triggers
- Brainwashing
- Urges
- Subconscious
Triggers are certain situations or stimuli that trigger you to watch porn.
This can be anything from being alone in your room, to the Instagram models on your
phone.
You have been conditioned to watch porn after seeing these triggers.
Brainwashing is the temptation that runs in your brain. The addiction that has nestled itself
in the conscious part of your brain that tries to get you to relapse.
The brainwashing makes rationalizations and compromises, he will convince you to watch
porn. And he will convince you that it’s even pleasurable. Don’t believe his lies. The
brainwashing can be seen as intrusive thoughts you have. Thoughts not necessarily your
own. Conflicting with what you truly want. Literally a voice of the addiction.
Urges are sometimes the result of triggers. When you get triggers but don’t engage with
them a certain restlessness will rise. The urges can be mild, or very strong. It depends on
how well you’re fighting off the addiction. Urges are a feeling you have, an awakening of
the emotional mind. When urges come you stop thinking straight, and the emotional mind
takes over.
The subconscious is also an adversary. The addiction is the hardest to purge from your
subconscious. You’ll have to break the habits and patterns you’ve created that are connected
to your porn addiction. It might even attack you in your dreams. But after some
reprogramming, your subconscious can become your biggest ally.
You could subconsciously activate a trigger. That trigger creates an urge to relapse.
The brainwashing will convince you to give into this urge. Either through compromise or
rationalization. Then you’ll relapse and are back at where you began.
Luckily this book will tell you how to dismantle each of these. So you don’t have to fight
them all at once.

TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Let me explain:
“Dopamine plays a role in how we feel pleasure. It's a big part of our unique human ability
to think and plan. It helps us strive, focus, and find things interesting.”
Your subconscious doesn’t know the difference between real and imaginary events.
It believes the porn you consume to be real.
“The Coolidge effect is a biological phenomenon seen in animals whereby males exhibit
renewed sexual interest whenever a new female is introduced, even after sex with prior but
still available sexual partners”
They did a test where they put a rat in a box with 5 female rats. He mated until the point of
exhaustion. But when a new female rat was introduced, he became alert again and started
mating again although the male rat was completely exhausted.
6
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Think about your last session, how many girls have you looked at?
How many dopamine spikes have you chased?
Reproduction is the ultimate reward for men, and releases a ton of dopamine.
And you’re reaping this reward multiple times per session, every time you look at a new
girl.
After a session, the real world doesn’t compare to the dopamine spike you just had.
Your dopamine levels don’t return to baseline, they drop below it.
So there’s less dopamine to spend on the rest of the day.
And this is the primary reason why you must break free.
7
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
And with that tremendous energy, one session of porn might seem way more valuable than
it really is.
Secondly, you’re still watching sex, not doing it yourself. You’re training yourself to be a
spectator, not a participator.
Thirdly, we all know that lines like that are easily crossed. Dopamine makes us chase
pleasure. This means that one girl won’t satisfy you long when there are millions of videos
just one click away. When the emotional mind is activated you won’t even care about the
Coolidge effect or its consequences.
So for all the critics, stop following the voice of your addiction.
He’s trying to keep you down.

TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Chapter 2: War
This battle against porn is like war.
A war of the emotional mind that chases pleasure and the rational mind that follows order.
You’re going to have a preparation week before you break free (more on that later).
Then you’ll have a final session and afterwards the battle begins.
There are certain stimuli and situations that trigger you to watch porn.
Everytime you see a hot girl on instagram a signal is sent to your brain urging you to watch
porn. (This is an example)
If the demons cross the road they gain control and trigger a relapse.
So every time you get a trigger, this might trigger you to watch pornography.
Meaning the demons try to cross the road.
If you don’t actively counter this trigger, the demons will cross the road and invade your
mind.
‘Forcing’ you to watch porn.
But if you counter this trigger, you fight off the demons and make sure your mind and thus
your kingdom stays under your control.
Every time the road is crossed, meaning the triggers have caused a relapse and the demons
have control of your mind, the road opens up a bit so it’s easier for the next triggers to
activate.
9
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
When you quit pornography, this road will be large and undefended. Demons/triggers will
try to cross. But the longer you fight these triggers/demons the more defenses you build on
this road. So it will be way harder to invade your kingdom/mind.
There will be less triggers and when you have these they will be easier to subjugate.
But if one demon crosses and forces you to masturbate or watch porn, the defenses have
been broken and the road has opened up again. Meaning that more triggers will follow and
they will be harder to defeat.
This means that one relapse could turn into a week of addiction.
So if you ever decide to have ‘just one’ more porn session, you’ll be addicted for another
week.
When you decide to quit, you’ll have to manually defend the road against the demons.
The triggers will be frequent and the road will be large and undefended.
But the longer you fight, the smaller and more defended this road gets. Until no demon is
able to cross.
Whenever you notice an intrusive thought or have a trigger to watch porn you must hold
the line. Don’t let these demons take control of your kingdom.
That’s because when triggers flood your brain they activate the emotional part of the brain.
You need to use your rational mind to counter the activity of the emotional mind.
If you can switch back to the rational mind and counter these urges with relative ease, that’s
great.
So when you’re bored and have nothing to do. Use these triggers to
- Take a walk across the neighborhood.
10
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
What’s most important is that you distract yourself and leave the place where you were
flooded with triggers.
If your trigger is stress, do some meditation. But not inside your room.
Do it in your living room, garden or in the park nearby.
Find creative activities that stimulate the mind, get you out of your room and rebind the
triggers to a positive activity.
The first weeks you have to do this manually, but slowly you’ll start building more and
more defenses. And it doesn’t require a conscious battle anymore.
Luckily the brainwashing can’t win after you’ve read this book.
You have too much knowledge and understanding, you’ll win the debate with ease.
You can counter all the triggers but you can still get urges from time to time.
Like a fire inside you trying to eat its way to your mind.
Once you realize that you want to lose the debate, the urges are taking over.
Once your arguments don’t hold much weight anymore, you need to get off stage.
You need to get some water (or anything to put out the fire).
In chapter 10 I’ll show you what activities you can practise to kill this ‘fire’.
They’re mostly engaging activities that help you clear your mind and thus extinguish the
fire.

“The placebo effect is defined as a phenomenon in which some people experience a benefit after the
administration of an inactive "look-alike" substance or treatment.
In most cases, the person does not know that the treatment they are receiving is actually a placebo.
Instead, they believe that they are the recipient of the real treatment.”
In other words a placebo demonstrates that simply believing that a treatment works can heal
you just like the actual medicine would.
In 1777 a blind girl started undergoing treatment with a physician called Mesmer who had
invented a healing process which included magnets.
While undergoing the process the girl started seeing blurry objects again, then black and
white objects and afterwards color.
You might think this magnet treatment is incredibly powerful, but it never worked.
It only made the patients believe that something was happening while in reality nothing
changed.
“Study after study demonstrates that simply believing that a placebo like a charmed object,
healing human presence, or special environment is going to make us feel better actually
does.”
Read this:
“Over the course of the twenty-one-day experiment, the participants who were educated
about the science behind placebo effects and then informed that they were taking a placebo
displayed fewer IBS symptoms and greater relief compared with people who were educated
about placebos and didn’t receive any pills. Understanding how a placebo could make their
IBS better actually did just that.”
12
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
You might still seem doubtful, that’s why this chapter is called embracing the placebo effect.
“Intrigued by the strange new possibilities of non deceptive placebos, my lab conducted our
own experiment. We used a similar method and divided participants into two groups, one
of which was informed about the science of placebos. In effect, we told them, “If you think a
substance will help you, it will.” Then we gave them a placebo, a nasal spray, and told them
again that if they thought it would make them feel better, it would.
Next, we stirred up their negative emotions by showing them aversive pictures, such as
scenes of blood and gore (participants had agreed to view such images in advance). Sure
enough, the people in the placebo group experienced less distress. They also displayed less
emotional activity in the brain within two seconds of viewing a distressing image.“
There are thousands of other examples where people use placebo’s to improve their
performance, become more confident or heal their illness.
I’m not going to ask you to take pills and believe it will cure your addiction.
And the morning ritual reminds us of the battle everyday so that we will not be easily
defeated. Believing that the ritual will help us defeat triggers throughout our day.
13
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
You will have to fight this brainwashing from your porn addiction.
With willpower this is hard.
Because you still crave porn, but you're not allowing yourself to indulge.
Like a kid craving candy his mom told him not to have.
But you don’t really enjoy porn, just how it makes you feel.
14
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
After a session you click away as soon as possible, because it no longer holds value.
And most of the time you don’t want to face that truth, and click away as soon as possible.
Next session I want you to take your time and look around.
This might seem counterintuitive but keep using porn for a week.
I call it the preparation week, because after that week you’re going to quit forever.
(If you’re already trying to quit porn while reading the book, instead of preparation week
you can prepare for 2-3 days)
Instead of focusing on the hot girls and the dopamine reward, look for the bad.
The attention seeking thumbnails, disgusting comments, over the top videos, the sickening
kinks and the guilt afterwards.
Search that moment of clarity in a session where you ask yourself: “What the fuck am I
doing”.
Before, you might have felt the need to quit for health or personal reasons, but now you
want to quit because porn isn’t enjoyable anymore.
Every minute you spend with porn is now miserable and you’re only doing it because
you’re addicted to the dopamine reward.
15
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
You’re a slave to your own sexual desires which is killing the joy in your life.
You need to take back control, live your best life and never look back.
You’ll be free!
I also want you to write down WHY you want to quit.
In long nofap streaks you might start to romanticize your old porn addiction and how
‘good’ it made you feel.
That’s because your mind tries to forget all the bad and it only focuses on that dopamine
reward.
Even reasons like: “I’m quitting porn because I want to be free from the suffering” don’t
hold much weight because you’ll forget all about the suffering.
Control.
16
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Why do we feel all this guilt and shame after our orgasm?
We were never in control, and only after realizing that what we were doing was bad, could
we see the truth.
If we truly enjoyed porn, we wouldn’t feel that guilt and shame afterwards.
All the other reasons are pale in comparison to the masculine urge to reclaim what’s yours.
We can only control the external after we are in control of the internal.
You can only level up your life if you are in control of your own mind.
And whenever you feel these urges triggering you to do something you DON’T want to,
you’ll feel a boost in motivation. You tell them:
“I’m done listening to you, I’m in control now”.
You need to study the battle that ensues when you don’t give into your urges.
Watch as the demons try to invade your kingdom only to clash with your forces.
17
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
When you feel the urge to watch porn, try to push it away to the end of the day.
You’ll realize that this isn’t hard, just a bit uncomfortable.
You might feel a bit restless and you might ask yourself: “Why do I have to wait”.
That’s the brainwashing talking, practice this battle against your triggers.
You don’t want to become overwhelmed by triggers after your final visit, so you need to be
comfortable with this battle.
When you want to watch porn and masturbate, always delay it in preparation week.
Start taking back that little bit of control over your desires.
In the end you’ll still indulge and condition yourself that all this restlessness was for nothing
but shame and pain.
Next, identify when you feel the urge to watch porn. What time? What occasion?
When you’re bored? When you’re stressed?
You must quit your addiction while it’s the hardest, because that way it’s the least likely to
pull you back in.
If you try to quit while you’re on holiday the weeks you spend away from home might be
easy. But when you come home and you get all these triggers, you’ll fail immediately.
Preparation week might feel bad, you feel like you’re a slave to porn as you keep returning
but don’t enjoy it anymore.
But remember that you’ll be free at the end of this week.
The reward of freedom will only feel better.
18
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
This is the last time you ever need to indulge in this degenerate behavior.
I recommend doing it in the evening so when you wake up tomorrow your streak can begin.
Say goodbye to your porn site, your favorite stars, favorite videos, all of it.
The next few days you will get what I call ‘skill checks’.
It’s all in the belief. If you truly believe you’re going to break free, you will.
If you’ve any doubts, it will capitalize on this.
Remove uncertainties, build confidence.
You don’t want to go back, and nothing is going to pull you back in.
19
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
When the brainwashing realizes you’re unshakeable it will try to make you compromise.
Some examples with rebuttal:
Final note:
Now that you’ve cut out your biggest source of dopamine you need to live a life where you
still get enough natural dopamine.
Instead of using porn for your dopamine spikes, you’ll get your dopamine from natural
sources. Things you actually enjoy doing or things that help you grow.
So just make sure you live an active lifestyle and you’ll be fine.
20
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Chapter 5: Mindset
In the battle against porn, your mindset is your greatest weapon.
You’ve already conditioned yourself to dislike porn and had a final visit, now it’s time to
adopt an unshakable mindset.
Confidence
You must stand 100% after your reason for quitting, otherwise the brainwashing is going to
diminish your reason. Once it’s found a flaw, it will attach itself to it. Trying to rationalize a
relapse. When you debate with the ‘brainwashing’ you need to be able to rebut all his
arguments with ease.
You also must be 100% confident in your ability to break free. Because if the brainwashing
thinks it can overthrow you with urges it will make it really hard on you.
If there’s a possibility that you’d give up and relapse right now, it’s never going to let go.
You must have complete certainty that you will not relapse. That’s why confidence is so
important.
If some urges shake you up and make you think “I cannot control these urges” you’ll be lost.
You fight this battle with belief, so when you lose that belief you’ll be doomed.
Confidence comes from experience, so the longer you fight this battle the more confident
you’ll be. If you did it once you can do it again!
Discipline
“Where motivation fails, discipline prevails”
21
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Whenever you’re contemplating relapse do the hardest choice: take a cold shower, do push-
ups or take a walk outside. Whatever clears your head and keeps you going.
In the most dire moments you must be able to remember why you started and do any
activity that prevents relapse.
This might seem logical, but when you’re contemplating relapse, discipline is the only thing
that’ll save you.
Persistence
If you quit easily during streaks, you’ll never be able to break free.
You need to give everything you have and never give up.
If you don’t give everything, you don’t really want to break free.
With a quitters mentality you can never break free.
That’s why you need to adopt the warrior’s mentality, and never give up.
Optimistic Stoicism
Be happy that you’re free, this is the greatest weapon against your porn addiction.
Because you truly understand that you’ve made the right decision and you’d never want to
go back.
22
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
It’s laughable how desperate the brainwashing is. Always trying to find a way to get you
back on porn. Laugh at him, you’re better than him.
And you can't push waves away right? They’d only come back.
So just let them go. Let them wash over you, but don’t let them cloud your mind.
Your urges are separate from you, you feel them but don’t affect your mind.
This is powerful. You breathe in deeply, let it wash over you, and when you breathe out you
let the feeling go.
Adopt this mindset, it will help you tremendously when trying to quit porn.
23
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Whenever this happens, say to yourself: “I’m glad I don’t need porn anymore”.
Don’t push the imaginary away, as it will only come back.
Just let it go, gently. You are free, you don’t need nor want to return.
Remember why you’re quitting, and why you never want to go back.
You’ve identified at what times and occasions you usually watch porn.
We’ll use this in our planning.
For example: if you do it out of boredom, set up a tight schedule and give yourself no room
to masturbate.
Write down time slots for every task you need to complete that day and give yourself a few
breaks.
Like:
8:30 wake up
8:45 meditation
9:00 workout
10:00 work session 1
11:00 short break
11:15 work session 2
12:00 lunch
12:30 work session 3
etc.
24
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
If you watch porn during stressful times make sure that you find something else to do that
makes you relax. Meditation is a great way to relax. More on that in chapter 10.
In general, avoid your room during the times you used to masturbate.
If you’ve got work to do, do it on a laptop in your living room.
25
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Chapter 7: Relapse
You did everything I told you and still relapsed, it can happen.
Some people will pass these weeks easily, others might not.
Now read the book from the start, have a few preparation days and set up a final visit that
makes you hopeful for the future. You’re freeing yourself for real this time!
During a streak, never give up. Keep fighting till you can’t anymore. Until the urges or
brainwashing are too strong.
Like I said: If you give up when things get hard, you’ll never break free.
Feel the battle in your mind and in your soul. Get used to it. Because only if you win this
battle, will you break free.
Confidence is built through experience. See this failure as a learning opportunity for next
time.
26
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
During this week you’ll face strong urges and a lot of brainwashing.
This is the battle for freedom.
If you succeed, you’ll be free.
If you fail, you’ll start over.
The decisions you make during this battle will decide if you’re worthy or not.
There’s always a winning strategy.
When the battle is hardest and you think about relapsing, there is always a right path to
take.
Using all your willpower to take a cold shower, take a walk outside or do some breathwork.
The correct decision is always the least appealing and hardest one.
Remember this, stay disciplined.
Just one relapse is something that will keep you addicted your whole life until you break it.
So break this barrier. It might last just one day, maybe two or three.
But it will pass, as long as you believe in yourself.
27
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Your motivation is totally gone by now. All you have now is your discipline.
Your logical mind would say: “No, I don’t want to return to my addiction”
But your emotional mind says: “Don’t you want the pleasure?”
Trust yourself and your reason, and you will break the barrier.
The brainwashing will flood you with urges, trying to take back control before it’s too late.
If you’re truly committed and you make it through the barrier you’ll be free,
And now that you’ve broken it! You can celebrate, for a bit.
I want to say things get easier from here, but that’s not always true.
Your life feels new, with your mostly healed dopamine receptors.
But there will be counter attacks.
28
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
If you believe you’re free and don’t have to worry about cravings anymore, counter attacks
will catch you off guard.
But if you keep practicing what I taught you and keep the warrior’s mindset you’ll counter
them with relative ease.
These counter attacks will not go away soon, so you better get used to them.
But once you get used to them, the battle is way easier.

Exercise:
When you have no outlet for your sexual energy you’ll feel a storm growing inside you.
You can do a run every morning, follow a workout schedule or do push-ups everyday.
You need to use all this sexual energy you built up, so you must push to exhaustion.
Run until you can’t no more and workout till you start shaking.
You’re a warrior now so you’ll have to give everything. Your will is indomitable.
I’d recommend doing all of these, doing a 20-min run every morning, following a 3-4 times
per week workout schedule and doing pushups every time you get triggers.
I might be a little more disciplined than you are so just build it up.
And if you don’t have much time, focus on the workout schedule and pushups.
Start with the pushups. Make that a habit, so whenever you get a trigger you start doing
pushups (or any other quick bodyweight exercise). This way you rewire your brain and bind
a new activity to your trigger.
And adding a morning run to your daily routine will exhaust the sexual enery you’ve built
up in your sleep. Starting your day the right way.
Cold Showers
If warm showers make you aroused, what do cold showers do?
31
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
If you’re in a state of desire, feeling the urge to relapse. A cold shower is a quick cure.
Step in the cold shower from the very beginning, wash your body and hair and stop when
you’re done.
Meditation:
Meditation has many benefits and it can be very useful in clearing your mind.
It will also give you much focus for the rest of the day, I recommend doing a morning
meditation.
But what does meditation have to do with quitting porn?
It’s a great way to bring your mind at ease, like the rest before the battle.
It’s also great for bringing awareness of your thoughts, triggers, urges and feelings.
And it’s great for relieving anxiety and worries. Something your addiction likes to capitalize
on.
I think meditation is one of the most essential activities required for quitting porn.
So really give it some thought.
32

Warrior’s Guide
“Mindfulness meditation is a mental training practice that teaches you to slow down racing
thoughts, let go of negativity, and calm both your mind and body”
During this mindfulness meditation, look inwards. Try to identify how you feel.
Are you in a state of desire? Do you want or feel the need to relapse?
Accept whatever you’re feeling and gently let it go.
You can find many mindfulness meditation guides on youtube. Try one, find out if it works
for you.
If you want more of a stress relief meditation there is also this breathing method.
This is the best way to relieve your stress and fear. If this works better than the mindfulness
or nofap meditations, use this one.
Transmutation:
What is transmutation?
Transmutation can be seen as transforming energy in this example.
But from courage and on it starts to turn more and more positive.
As you see, if you want to get rid of desire, you need to go up.
33

To anger.
I mostly use that anger to be prideful of myself for still standing, this addiction cannot defeat
me. I’m fucking invincible.
Affirmations
34
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
It might seem silly at first, but these really do work if you repeat them every day.
You can also put these up on your wall, reading them out loud in your mind.
As long as the message gets ingrained in your subconscious.
The best way to use these, is in a meditative state is just before sleep, that’s when the
subconscious is most open to receiving your affirmations.
Visualization
I told you already that the subconscious doesn’t know what’s real and what’s not.
The battle with the demons invading your kingdom. The fight against the addiction.
I used this metaphor before. But this example can give you great power.
35

Warrior’s Guide
Accountability
Telling a friend about this battle so they can hold you accountable.
This can really make a difference, but I understand that some of you might be uncomfortable
with this.
That’s why I created an accountability group on discord which you can join.
Here you can post all your struggles and frustrations and your fellow brothers and I are
always ready to help you out.
(And when you’ve broken the addiction, you can help your brothers out)
Sometimes your own advice isn’t enough, and you just need to hear it from others.
There will also be other channels to share about self-improvement interests so I hope to see
you there.
Music
When you listen you will get a boost of motivation that will help you kill your urges.
Combine your song with visualization and you can quench the strongest urges.
Although if the urges are that strong they’ll probably come back.
36
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
Use this boost in motivation to think clear headedly about your next step.
If you want some epic music for your battle, check out audiomachine and two steps from
hell
Hypnosis
Hypnosis is definitely not for everyone, but if you believe it works use it.
Because if you believe it works, it works!
And if your subconscious is as committed to quitting porn as you are, you’ll make an
unstoppable duo.
Fasting.
Your body spends your whole life tons of energy digesting food.
But what happens to your body once there’s nothing to digest?
37
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
But what you must understand is that you’ll only feel hungry if there’s a possibility of you
eating. When you’re certain you won’t eat, there’s no reason to be hungry.
And you’ll keep your muscles. Don’t worry about that. We’re not going to fast for that long.
You’ll even get an increase in your growth hormone, because you need to be biologically
strong to hunt for more food.
So this approach isn’t for everyone. But I urge everyone to try it at least once.
You can try to do one meal a day. Or go 12-24 hours without food.
After that try 48 hours. You’ll realize it’s not even hard, you’ll actually like it.
Environment
You can boost your sense of control by imposing order in your surroundings.
Something as simple as tidying up your room or changing around your environment will
give you a sense of control.
After your final visit, change your room around in a way that gives you a sense of control
and tells you you're in battle now. Like the change of desktop I mentioned earlier.
A walk
Sometimes you spend too much time in your room and you can't subdue the urges anymore.
Just leave.
Find nature, nature has a powerful ability to restore your attention. Link
Clear your head, let this feeling of desire pass.
38

Enjoy the scenery around you and go back home when you feel like the storm has passed.
I was quite a severe case, I had to use nearly all of these tips to break free.
But if you think that you don’t need all these methods, that’s okay.
Try it without them and if you relapse you can just add them.
I want every person reading this book to be able to quit pornography and masturbation, and
I’ll search for any measures that can give them the edge in this battle.
39
TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
The brainwashing has somehow convinced you that a relapse would be pleasurable.
You know that he’s lying but you still want to believe him.
Remember how I said that you need to avoid situations where relapse is possible, well self-
sabotage is doing the opposite.
You seek out these situations, and when the urges finally overwhelm you, you’ll say:
“Oh well, this streak is over. Might as well relapse now.”
If you want to make it harder on yourself, indulge a little, it means the brainwashing has
subconsciously taken control.
Ask him: “Why would I make it harder on myself? Just for a tiny bit of pleasure?”
He’ll say: “It’s nothing important, just a bit of innocent fun”
Then rebuttal his argument: “In this war nothing is innocent fun, it will only bring me closer
to relapse and that’s definitely not worth it”
Tell him, and tell yourself that you must stay on the right path.
Don’t compromise, don’t peek at porn, don’t edge, don’t look for pretty girls on social
media, DON’T MAKE IT HARDER ON YOURSELF.

TO QUIT PORN
Warrior’s Guide
You’ve probably convinced your conscious mind to despise porn, but your subconscious
probably doesn’t understand this.
Dreams where you return to your addiction, only to wake up and feel relieved because you
haven’t really relapsed.
But remember when I said that once the road’s been crossed (a relapse has been triggered)
the road is easier to cross for the next triggers.
(Nothing wrong with wet dreams, but it’s the contents in the dream that are harmful)
Your subconscious mind doesn’t know the difference between truth and imagination.
So when you dream about consuming pornography and relapsing, it thinks you really have
relapsed and so more triggers will naturally follow.
Dreaming of a relapse will make the day afterwards significantly harder because you’ll have
more triggers and have to consciously fight them off again.
How much of the subconscious is affected by porn addiction is different for everyone.
But for those addicted since their teenage years this is the sad truth.
Like I said in the previous chapter we can use affirmations, and repeat those everyday.
In bed, just before sleep is when our subconscious is most responsive to our messages.
And we need to tell him what we know.
That we are tired of this slavery, that we need to be better than that.
We need to reclaim our motivation and energy again.
Because you don’t want to lose a 30+ streak because of a few degenerate dreams.

Doing a ritual every morning really helps you get in the right mind space to fight your
triggers and urges the rest of the day.
I believe that the more personal effort you put in your ritual, the more effective it will be.
It tells your mind that it is you that really wants to break free.
Blindly following the knowledge in this book will only get you so far, you also need to put
in effort.
You can use the tips I gave you in your morning ritual.
For example:
You put on your battle music, close your eyes, visualize the fight while reciting the
affirmations.
If you do that everyday for the entire song duration you’ll have your own battle ritual.
It will likely inspire you, bring you more confidence and strengthen your belief.
If you want a more physical exercise, you could try something like this:
Get a punching bag, put on your music, and fight your demons.
Imagine that every punch is for another demon and that you’re fighting through the horde.
You can also recite some affirmation during this act.
Things like this might seem a little excessive. But the benefits are great.
Find something that you’re comfortable with. And that you’ll truly believe helps you.
Recite the reason why you quit everyday, ingrain it into your mind.
This is a simple ritual which will also help you on your journey.
This will make it very hard to brainwash you. Because you remind yourself of the truth
everyday.
Now that you’ve chosen or created your own ritual, let’s take a look at the most powerful
totem you could use.

Buy a journal, make sure it looks special. Not like any other journal.
Start taking notes and write these down on the first few pages.
Read this eBook again and write the most important parts down.
Handwritten notes will help you understand the contents better and make it easier to
remember.
By writing down notes you’ll remember and understand the information better and you can
also retrieve the most important bits more easily.
Once you’ve written everything down, write down why you want to quit.
You can reuse the explanation you used earlier but now write it by hand.
After you’ve written an in depth explanation with reasoning, draw the outline of your right
hand on the next page.
After your final session you place your hand on this outline and make a vow to never
masturbate and use porn again.
Whenever you are close to relapse, flip to this page.
Put your hand on the same outline and remember your vow.
This journal is your totem now, a relapse would be incredibly disrespectful to your past self
and all his effort to quit. Think about your past-self’s anger and frustration if you were to
relapse.
If you start believing in your reason again, the urges will fade.
Like the placebo effect.
Believe in your message and in the war you started and you can beat the strongest urges.
On the next pages you keep a journal where you write down a summary of your day.
Did you have urges? And how did you overcome those? How do you feel? And what can
you do better? Evaluate your day and find out what works for you.
I believe that having a special journal is one of the most efficient tools and can act as a
powerful totem.

Journaling is incredibly powerful. Writing down your thoughts makes them leave your
mind.
So write down your doubts, struggles and end on a hopeful note.
Example:
“I got really close to relapse today. I don’t know how much longer I can fight.
I shouldn’t think like that. Remember: Stay optimistic and stay persistent.”
But remember that if you relapse while using the journal, it will shatter your belief.
You could reuse it as a totem but the brainwashing can always say:
“This didn’t work before, why will it work now?”
When you use the journal, make sure you can get a long streak.
So that you’re very likely to break free forever.
But I’d recommend you try the other methods first and use this when you believe you’re
ready.

After you break the barrier and a month with no porn and masturbation, you’re
unstoppable, with loads of energy and mental clarity.
But once you ejaculate again this might fade.
Although sex with a real woman is way healthier than porn, you’ll still lose some of that
clarity and energy.
Semen retention is about harnessing this energy and being the best self you can be.
Of course this is only for the hardcore self improvers. So you can decide which one you’ll
practise.
This struggle only concerns the men able to get with a woman
You’ll download a dating app and try to get some matches, you scroll past all these girls and
only get a few matches (if one at all),
And the girls you message might not even respond. Remember that online she has 100s of
men at her fingertips.
But you must remember that 80% of the girls go for the top 20% of men.

I’m not a dating coach, but I’ll give you some advice.
This might be a step outside your comfort zone, but it’s not that scary.
With this newly found confidence, I bet you can start a conversation with her.
No expectations, just talk about something unrelated.
Hold deep eye contact and try to find out if she’s attracted to you.
If she isn’t, finish the conversation and just talk to the next person.
If she is, continue with the conversation.
I also don’t want you to return to porn because of loneliness, that’d be such a shame.

After a 100 days you are so used to the battle it’s near impossible to lose.
But counter attacks might still occur.
Remember:
- Stay disciplined
- Stay persistent
- Stay optimistic
- Stay confident
You’re glad to be free from porn, you’re not giving up this easily and you’ll make the correct
choice (how unappealing it might be). And you know that you’ll succeed.
Of course you can still relapse, I’ve heard stories about people failing after 700 days and
personally I’ve also failed after 123 days. It can happen. But don’t be afraid.
But with the placebo effect, you could make anything real.
