View Full Version : Help me quit Hentai

I am not joking, I've tried it a couple of times, max I got was nearly 2 weeks. Usually its around 4/5 days without it. Then I tried a different method. It seems like I like to stress the pc. So I just dl HCG, h-anime, manga, but only sometimes viewed it. I then collect around 100gbs only to delete it and then start again with just viewing the info/cover of the Hentai and then downloading it. But once in 2/3 weeks I go "crazy" by viewing all sorts of h-manga/doujin. Practically I've seen/read them all. I see all kinds of non H-animes, including ecchi, so that might be a problem. I also like real life nudity, but clearly thats 5%. Not sure why, I'm attracted to the animaiton I think.
I know I'm a normal man. I really want to quite this, I know its not easy. I'm trying it again another time. My short term goal for now is 40 days without any form of hentai/or real life that I myself find it. If its accidental then its ok, meaning that I just stop viewing it directly.
Serious replys only. I am not interested in flamming, though feel free to post how you felt when you accomplished it or what did you experienced.
There is only one way you'll ever get over your addiction and that's to get laid. ._.

well, you can try to find another hobby to keep you busy. something not related to hentai, animation and nudity.
you can also try to avoid unnecessary use of comp, so only use it when you really need to use. that way you can avoid downloading and viewing hentai.

Turn your computer down, got out for a while, forget about your home, make new friends, get a girlfriend, try making one sport and start with new hobbies (go to the movies, bars, pubs, shows, etc...) and after some weeks you'll be able to see hentai as you see soccer (important, but not necessery :p , I see it this way) then came back to here... becouse HF is much more than hentai and anime... :p

Even better, just kill yourself, you will never view hentai this way, but this'll be the case for anything you could view.
Seriously, if you're addicted to hentai, it'll never work, just get over it and stop demoralizing yourself by trying to stop your hobby.

NO ! Hentai is healthy for the dirty little monkey that lives in you !
you don't want it to starve to death from lack of fapping now do you ?
your not the type that would do something so cruel to that dirty monkey ?
so keep downloading like theres no tomorrow and feed that poor inner monkey !

I think you and I have more in common than it would appear. I myself have around 250+ GB in ONLY hentai material (Mov,Hcg,manga,doujin etc) even doing this I keep circulating this thought in my mind when i'm "satisfied" (gaming or hentai.....you get the idea) or just not at the cpu, "Isn't there something else I was ment to do". In short terms I'd like to think that "getting laid" is one sort of remedy, but still, I believe there should be more behind a lay than just the physical satisfaction. I'm talking about inner peace and love. No matter how much you talk around it saying "dude, your'e a virgin right?" or "LOVE and understanding? what are you a hippie?" or "well duh!". It is still the truth, hard to define and believe? yes, but still true. These are my 3 important words in life I'm about to have tatoed in me, because humans tend to forget the most important things sometimes. Especially when you have noone around to refresh your memory, BE the reminder. Love, Passion and honor. The three most important things to die for, in reality, in my oppinion.
As an advice I can only say this, make a choice wether it be Hentai, computer or a girl/guy and work real hard in convincing yourself that it is the right choice to make because THAT's why happines comes through struggle, with yourself. Like it says in the dojo in StreetFighter, "My path is the right path".
That's all I can say for now, and since it's 2:15 am in my country I'll go to sleep. So in case I don't see ya, goodafternoon, goodevening and goodnight :)

' lacking of free will ,I don;t know what is tempting in h-games , maybe just domination on the partner , makes your erotic fantasyes come thruth ??;) But maybe if u are addicted to h-games , maybe u will expected behaviour of real girls similar to hentai cute girls ??!! Wow it will be your end ;/ And don't tell that u are no t pervent , you are i am too , and i know that :D But i am trying to not to pass to far ....

I have a girl friend.
No I'm not that dependant, only that sometimes for a stupid reason, I just want to find out if a particular anime has a h-doujin.
Laid? almost....
Friends, lots of it, but most are far apart now.
Using unnecessarily, well now with holidays, I'm using it to watch tons of animes.
Other hobbies, I have lots of other hobbies, it is just that I do not like to watch TV alot except for EPL and CSI. Reality TV is dumb. Why should I see someone else humiliated.
Hentai is just a scapegoat to instant gratification.
Now day 2 clean.

Just set the firewall to filter sex/hentai material.... job done (tempararily).

Well this is probably a real off-the-wall idea dude, and it might not help 100%, but it's worked for me a couple of times; but start going to church. I don't know if you're a religious person by nature or not, but if you're not you might want to try it. I go myself, read my bible, and do lots of other stuff, and sometimes it helps. It's not an immediate cure sometimes, but found it helps me cut back on my fetishs a bit. You can see that if I'm here talking to you now, it doesn't mean you're going to turn into this all-holy person who stays away from everything bad for you, but I've found it helps. Especially in the long run dude, just check out Revelations in the Bible sometime dude, and you'll see what I mean.
Don't know if this will help or not, but you asked for some serious ideas, and that's about as serious as I can get. Hope everything works out for ya.

o_o;; Hmm..What exactly attracts you to hentai? The animation? Well..think of it this way. It's only figment of your imagination. Delete everything..go out there and hang out with your friends. Go out with your girlfriend..do something fun. Find yourself a job. Write a novel..even if you're not thinking of publishing it.
Especially in the long run dude, just check out Revelations in the Bible sometime dude, and you'll see what I mean.
Indeed. Good advice. ;)

Ok, after all these well-meaning but rather typical ideas, its time for the professional, that is - me - to offer solid advice on this horrible hentai dilemma. The general idea is very easy.
Devote more of your time to hentai.
You might think this silly, but its not. Ever tried to eat too much ice-cream? The same happens with hentai, except that there is not necessarily any puking reflex. This is not a quick solution, and it could take years, but eventually the glamour of hentai will fade. In the sweet days of the beginning of a hentai career, everything looks so deviant and exciting and nasty and vicious and innocent and unbelievable, depending on your personal tastes. And you'd probably like to have it all. But as the times pass, you will start to take note of the different drawing styles, different genres, different character architypes. 'Oh how boring, another love hina -style doujin'. And you notice that the number of these different styles is very limited. You have seen this story, heard this moan, watched this greenhaired eyeglassed shy girl molested by mechatentaclewhatnots from demon dimension - what, a hundred times? How ever did something like that seem like a forbidden fruit from the tree of perversion?! This ordinary thing! You notice that most of the released stuff is in the end quite boring, uninspired and unnecessary bulk fodder. As more time passes, you grow less interested... less excited by it. In time some favourites will probably remain interesting, and now and then you maybe like to return to your old hentai friends... but the days of feverish addiction will be only memories from a time gone past. You look at what you collected and wonder why you stored such junk - most of it has turned boring, low quality or even obsoleted...
This kind of progress could also been looked as sad by those who want to live with their hentai forever. Well, it could be that the attraction can turn into love, but then it will be like love that your parents share, or maybe old people. I don't think the honeymoon can last.
Of course if there is any hongfire hentai professional with an unrelenting career of 10+ years, lets hear about it?
I suggest to enjoy the ride while it lasts, and when the excitement goes out of it, it'll be pause time naturally. The internal monkey mentioned by animewerewolf will tell you when its time to look at hentai again. :)

Shock Therapy is the way to go.... think of it this way quit it or indure the horrific pain of ball Exploding shock of doom :eek:

First of stop posting on hongfire, which is all about hentai, anime, and their torrents- pretty much everyone is addicted to hentai or anime here. Visit other sites that have nothing to do with hentai, not only do you watch hentai but you discuss. Then punish yourself each time you watch it, like the idea of putting a quarter in the jar each time you swear. But don't join the church, all they fill you with are lies and bs. Your life would suck even more, as you will feel even worse about yourself.

If you OD on hentai you'll be less likely to watch it. It's true.
Xiados
04-20-2005, 04:12 PM
I would say the opposite of what others have said. Devote your time to other things. If you keep busy, then you're obviously not looking at Hentai. For myself, I have come to notice thats its when I'm all alone that I happen to look up something I wouldn't normally. I suppose its more a habit from my school years, staying up late looking at materials I shouldn't be.
Its about willpower. OD'ing to get tired and abandon something isn't the way to go. You don't do it to stop eating as much. You don't do it to quit smoking. You'll find yourself in a months time, looking at it more then ever. Maybe you'll stop, but what about all that time you've just spent on it?
Also, alot of people will tell you its not a big deal. I suppose thats relative as to whether you want to think that or not.
As for your plan, try to do as I said. Keep busy with other things. Thats how you easily quit a habit. Find a new, 'healthy' addiction.

I think arabias' advice might work :p.
I've tried myself to get rid of some bad habits/addictions as well. And it's not easy :p. Try to go without hentai as long as you can and try to break that record each time, eventually you should feel the need decline (well, I don't watch hentai, so I don't know if this goes the same as it did with the stuff I tried to overcome with willpower, but I hope it works that way :p).

Its questionable if all sorts of addictions and hobbies, such as overeating, smoking or hentai, are based on the same neurophysiological machinery. I admit I don't know. Seems though that there is some differences; hentai addition might stay put if you don't see any cues related to it, but not seeing a cigarette box doesn't help for a nicotine dependent from what I've heard.
If hentai is a form of entertainment that gets its value partly from its exotic qualities, it will lose that once it becomes common. If its already something very common for you, then my advice is probably not good.
And yes, what about the time? All that time watching hentai you could have watched telly, could have gone from door to door preaching the word of god, could have been a gangsta in a ghetto, could have pushed drugs, could have twiddled your thumbs in boredom... oh the world of infinite possibilities. If there is something you'd like to do, and hentai prevents it, then the fastest way is dropping it altogether at one go and staying away from places where you can see any cues of it. But if there is no such more important thing, why exchange an entertaining hobby for something worse? :)
Edit: Maybe the first thing to do is to explain to yourself why you need to get rid of hentai. A good motivation definitely helps. Even the part of you that likes hentai might buy abstaining, if your reasons are solid enough.

Yes arabias has some ;) right . but if hentai is a part of your life , u have a conflict , u can't abadnon a part of yourself ;) . But the idea as more you wathing as the more boring it becomes is good , and bad , for someone it could be addicted , for someone coudl help ;) There is no one way to all people ;) It is good topic ! If you see taht wathing hentai has bad influance on you , it mean's some bad behaviopu , thinking olny on sex , or have no respect for other , if yoour friends see that u have changed for worse , you should do something with your hobbys not only hentai ;) I am wonder wghat Japanese people thinki abaut hentai !!?? Cos in Japan it is well known !! In forenginers catch up this kind of japanese culture a little bit later ....

1. Seeing more hentai does not help. tried that approach before
2. Here is the best place to ask about it. I have not seen any H for 4 days now, hopefully that 40 day target is something I can achieve.
3. There is no need justification in something is wrong. hentai can be considered wrongwoing in my religion, I an going to stop it no matter how hard it gets.
Hoefully I'll make a blog about it here, telling progress.
4. I have not thought about H, or have any cravings about it at all for now. Hope this will keep up. Yes, it is some sort of craving, but this type I would like it to stop. I don't smoke. Seeing my friends trying to quit smoking after years, one of them got cold turkey, after a month and started again. So its better not to known H at all then to know it. I must admit though Hentai has thought me alot, and I think that I have accumulate enough knowledge for after marriage already. Imagine I started knowing hentai nearly 8 years now. So I guess I need to stop now.

If you want to grow out of hentai, wait until you find something else that interests you. Dont go out and try to find it, just let it come to you or wait until you grow out of hentai. There is nothing to stress about. You will eventually grow out of hentai before you know it.

Take up a strenuous sport like weight lifting, marathon running, boxing, long distance bike riding, or a martial art. Guaranteed to help you kick the habit( you'll be too tired by the end of the day)
*Translates my sig*
Guys are ecchi, you can't do anything about it.
It's difficult to *totally* quit H. It's men's nature :p If you manage to do it, congrats, you may have become -
1) a saint.
2) something more perverted...
3) crazy
I suppose quitting is difficult, but at least, slow down on it. Discipline plays a great part. I'm going to piggy back the idea - take up a hobby. For me, it's Kendo and playing the guitar. You'll soon realize you're spending time on your new found hobby instead.

hentai is like a part of you now is like saying help me how to quite music or watching Tv. of course you can find something else a new hobby try by looking around the net for hobbies. but i sugest if you dont have a job you can try gettin a full time one or if you dont go out side you should do it more often. ^^

Hopefully this helps u, i've tried quitting too, with pr0n, but every month or so, i get bored, and am all alone at home, then i look at it again >_> it's very addicting

I'd prolly say... Push yourself.
Provided that hentai is not as hard to let go as drugs... you can always do something like... (this is tough to play, as it involves manually messing with your emotions) find interest in a shy conservative type of girl (please, i do not mean conservative as any sort of politic element) that don't like people who watch hentai or porn at all. If you already have someone like that, then it will give you a easy determination boost. If you don't, well... try =X Anyways, in order to please that person, you'll have to give it up. So eventually the question will probably become Your Loved One or Hentai and Porn. Hopefully you will chose the right decision.
Other way, I guess... Force yourself to it. Turn yourself into a lab mice. If you ever touch hentai, once you snap out of it, make sure you give yourself a little punishment (without putting your life in danger of course). Eventually if you are tired of getting that punishment, you will either give up on hentai, or give up on setting this rule up.
Hope that helps. They look like pointless ideas to me but... who knows.

If this "addiction" is generated by boredom, then just replace it by a less perverted one, like online gaming or a real sport.
Just do something so timeconsuming that you either dont have the "strenght" or will to continue the hentai addiction.
Or try switching to real asian pr0n, that tends to help. :P

I have the same problem too :p
I'm a manga addict & I'm easiliy attracted to pretty arts even though I don't like flooding H stuff. Sometimes I just download because the artist is good. But then the content is pretty garbage...that I don't even really read them. Sometimes I feel like downloading the whole volume just for the cover art. lol
To be effective, I think you really need to make yourself spend less time in internet = = (say, try going back to 56k!)
Most of those stuff come from the net, the evil side of the internet! If you are not determined enough, you will go back to it just like drug addicts...

I agree with some of them that you find yourself a partner, you know girlfriend. You'll have more stuff to focus on and I'll bet with you that all these Hentai stuff will be a string of hair in your life. I'll skip the get laid part.

I'm with the crowd that says you should replace your addiction with another addiction that you have a natural propensity for. May I suggest alcohol or cocaine? Barring that, there are other forms of net addiction and information you could develop. If you like reading, constantly checking blogs like metafilter/slashdot or your email inbox or stock quotes are nasty but less deviant habits. Whatever your interest is, you know. Since you mentioned you just like the act of downloading, maybe you can constantly, and illegally, download something else too. How 'bout comic books. If you like music or audiobooks, I can invite you to oink. Works better if you have a decent music player so you could actually enjoy the music.
I take it you like to enjoy your hentai too. How about narrowing down your hentai into manageable categories? Maybe you just need to be pickier with your hentai. How about a no fat chicks rule, or "I will download today, but only hentai with no blondes on the cover." Or if you want a rule that makes you sound less like a crazy person, how about picking by your favorite artist? You know, work up those standards. If the covers look extra good, you should probably tell yourself that the the artist just worked extra hard on it to sell a few books and that the insides are shoddy. Tell yourself, I'm going to delete these anyway, so what's the point? If you don't believe it, if there's a way to preview those books, do it and only keep your favorites. It may be a matter of taste, but it works for me. The thing is when I do obssess, I turn into a raging hentai monster desperately looking for my next hit. Got any Matra Milan, buddy? I NEED IT!!!!
ps. Please seed that. I have some other suggestions too, but I'll save for another post.

you know I tried that, though I just download everything, but then make another collection. It does not work that way.
Watching tons of it and then promise not watching it does not work.
So far more than 2 weeks, viewed ecchi in one session, and thats it. 3 days ago. But I have less craving now, thuogh I do make some cheeky visit to MBF only to close the window after 2 seconds.
BTW, it took me this long(from last post) to actually kick the habbit, but there are lots of going back again. Within the last 2 months, I have made better progress. Hopefully this will continue.

Ok here's a method you could try, if you have software that has parental control options you can use it to password block hentai websites. Certainly you have your bookmarks filled with hentai websites right, well use the Parental control options to block all those website and create a password that you will never remember make the password something like this: "rdfg8923htgr7hg-9n9oifdsngh932-7bfdsfkjnblaiuh9fjkfh9237gr2983gr83r6bf" that way you can never guess it, and anytime you come across a new hentai site simply block it... permenently.

Here is a way to stop your hentai wants. This whole way goes through normal psychology which if you have ever taken a intro level of college psychology you will agree with this method.
First take time to watch your hentai but while watching it have something that you don't like be going on. Stuff like bad smells, eating burnt food, have a friend knock on your window or door or hot candle wax anyways you should get my point. Why does this work? Well in psychology we won't do things if there is something bad associated with them much like training puppies as they learn pooping in the house yields discipline. However this doesn't replace the rationale you have for looking at it, if you can come up with more cons than pros in your mind then you won't have a rationale for looking at it therefore your body won't co-operate to do it.

tsunami7... ^^; well I've learned that in my psych class as well... but the thing is you'll have to be careful when doing that because if you choose the wrong thing to do when watching hentai you could end up liking it... well like a reverse effect. and also... I don't get the hot candle wax suggestion~ ^^;

Lose the high speed internet otherwise, you'll keep gettin sucked into it. Keeps me level the fact that I have to go to school to use hi speed or internet since our phone lines *fooked* up. Dial up can get u nothing but pictures, but even that will take awhile. 100GB of H though? I thought i was bad with half a gig. Where do u get your stuff, lol.

Yes, you must go 56k modem! It will take forever to load those pics up. If this doesn't work then think of something that may scar you forever. Say maybe some form of gruesome scenes from a war? The violent scenes make me feel sick so maybe it will keep you away from looking at any picture for a while.

kill yourself thats the answer to all problems! j/k although some people see this reasoning the best. too get out of habits you have to get out of it gradualy and gradualy add something else to replace it.

People who are telling you to cancel the internet or throw away your hentai obviously have never been close to someone with an addiction.
You probably already know that if you throw it out, you will get more. If you cancel the net, you will buy magazines. If you just try and stop, you will often fail, which makes you feel even worse by not suceeding at quitting.
If you truely think you are addicted to hentai, talk to a professional counsellor. Does your area have any addiction helplines or counselling you could seek out? Or you could even find one online. You sound like a younger person, maybe try a teen help site? You have recognized you have a problem and you are seeking help, those are not insignificant things. Don't beat yourself up so much about "giving in", not everybody can just walk away from an intensely personal and sexual habit.
I don't recommend you replace porn with religion. Religion is fine if you prescribe to it, but that is not a way to treat an additction. It will only hide your problem until it rears back up. Repressing your desires will not just make them vanish. Liking hentai is like a sexual preference, and you cannot change what you like. Do not feel gulity because the wiring in your brain responds to animated sex. All you can try is to limit the amount of influence your habit has on you. But most people can't do something like that alone, so I wish you luck.

Find a new addiction! Seriously! I spent the past year playing World of Warcraft instead of going on my usual downloading sprees of everything anime.
But seriously, I respect your choice, and others should too. If you feel you are too addicted, you are making the right choice for yourself. It is one thing to like hentai, it is another to let it take over your life. I think some people don't understand this. You don't want to feel you have a dependency on it, and it's a good thing that you are trying to break free of that dependency.
Someone said the only way is to get laid.. which isn't true.. believe me. :P That person would also be assuming you are a virgin, which may or may not be true. In fact the people I know who like hentai the most, have sex quite frequently. LOL
Anyway, I'm sure you can do it. And to the other people replying, you should know there is a difference between liking hentai and being sickly infatuated with it to the point that it keeps you from having an everyday life or finding a normal relationship. Please be supportive. It's not like he's being one of those people who are "anti-hentai". He just doesn't want to feel like he absolutely HAS to be downloading hentai all the time.

I dl anime most of the time too, But maybe due to the big broadband connection anime's are not enough to use all bandwith :D I like Hentai, but I am not that addicted as you described. It does not control my life.
I am going to start playing nfsmw and jetfighter 2015 soon. my H problems are really with HCG and H-dojins. thats it. Basicly I find all kinds of dojins until I dont need to visit those h-sites which seem outdated.
Im the same way... -_- I have a 80gig harddrive with Hmangas and doujins alone.
But after I got seperated from my grl all my lust for it has decreased. Same for any sexual stuff so I guess it aint all good.
Any way just try to do stuff with friends and stuff, that way U wont think of it all the time. And U get away from the computer. ^_^
Change Ur life style. Or else U will get boored with just sitting at Ur computer doing nothing and start downloading again.
LOL I just gotto add a remarc to all the funny replys from the other hentai addicts

I am not joking, I've tried it a couple of times, max I got was nearly 2 weeks. Usually its around 4/5 days without it. Then I tried a different method. It seems like I like to stress the pc. So I just dl HCG, h-anime, manga, but only sometimes viewed it. I then collect around 100gbs only to delete it and then start again with just viewing the info/cover of the Hentai and then downloading it. But once in 2/3 weeks I go "crazy" by viewing all sorts of h-manga/doujin. Practically I've seen/read them all. I see all kinds of non H-animes, including ecchi, so that might be a problem. I also like real life nudity, but clearly thats 5%. Not sure why, I'm attracted to the animaiton I think.
I know I'm a normal man. I really want to quite this, I know its not easy. I'm trying it again another time. My short term goal for now is 40 days without any form of hentai/or real life that I myself find it. If its accidental then its ok, meaning that I just stop viewing it directly.
Serious replys only. I am not interested in flamming, though feel free to post how you felt when you accomplished it or what did you experienced.
Hmm, have you conquered your fears of going to bed at night in the dark? If so, do the same technique/strategy you used to overcome your obsession with hentai.
