I have the same problem with escaping into sexual fantasies of porn and so forth. I'm middle-aged male and most of my life, I just accept the problem. It's hard to explain, because it's not about sex drive in my case - it's about escaping depression?
I was able to abstain from porn and masturbation for a couple of years. I also have an addiction to alcohol, and the problems seem similar. I don't crave alcohol, but I know that having a drink would probably lead me back into years of alcohol abuse. So I don't drink.
If you can abstain for a couple of months, you might find that you no longer desire porn. Probably it is just a bad habit that you use to escape, and abstaining will force you to replace it with something else. Once it is replaced, you will no longer crave it.
You might try fasting. This creates a very serious, self-controlled, ascetic mood.
