Try to imagine your life as a eunuch. Say, you get to live till age 90 being a eunuch all along. How would you like it? Where would the fun be for you? What are the activities that you are currently foregoing because you either watch porn or think about how not to watch porn? Can you engage in those activities right away, without first waiting until you become a eunuch? What do you like to do with your life?

...

to the extent that you want to break free from porn: you will know that you have broken free from it when you stop thinking about it. If you are pre-occupied, then the fact that you are not, technically speaking, watching it is of no consequence. You are still pre-occupied, so you have not broken free from it. You can be pre-occupied and watching, or, pre-occupied and fighting the urge to watch - but still pre-occupied. I am sorry that I am not cheerleading you, but the fact remains - as long as porn has a hold on your mind, you are not free from it. With respect to practical steps - unfortunately for you, there is no pedometer (=step counter) to count sexual thoughts. If there were one, then, given your level of pre-occupation, I would simply spend two weeks watching porn and counting sexual thoughts that occur during and in-between porn watching sessions, and, spend another two weeks not watching porn, and just counting sexual thoughts. After that I would compare the counts and choose the option that yields fewer sexual thoughts.
