As on this strong reasons, I ventured into a total porn-ban for myself.It worked well for 2-3 months then I came across another revelation..." Life is too short...so enjoy every moment of it." So I decided to do what I really enjoy. And the porn game was ON again.
A swing from two extreme ends was obvious. So I decided to pursue my porn hobbie in a moderation but it didn't happened. I am addict again. I know it is not good for me.

I am happy to hear that you have tried to quit and that you have seen the negatives of pornography! I know that much of society does not look down on porn and most men view it. But I have always thought it was wrong and I DO believe that porn (like almost anything) can become a destructive addiction.
My boyfriend has an accountability partner and he has Covenant Eyes to help with pornography addiction. I believe it is very hard to moderate pornography because pleasure is fleeting; an individual is constantly seeking to view the material. I would advise you to seek an accountability partner if you really want to break this addiction.
Do not give up and I am so encouraged to see that you have made some positive steps in overcoming such a strong addiction!
The best of luck to you!
