92: How One Man Stayed Sober While Alone and in Pain: What His Story Teaches Us About Porn Addiction Recovery Artwork

No More Desire ™ Porn Addiction Recovery

What have you tried so far to quit porn? Accountability buddies, talk therapy, internet filters, church or religious programs, or mindfulness techniques to 'get rid of cravings'… Many of these have merit, but they're often missing key elements for long-lasting sobriety. It isn’t enough to just “stop watching porn”. Porn addiction is a symptom of deeper, underlying challenges that I address using evidence-based psychological and behavioral practices.

My mission isn't just to help people overcome porn addiction, but to give them each step to establish a recovery mindset and lifestyle. This is done using hands-on, daily exercises that retrain the brain and forge new habits that last a lifetime. Once this mindset and lifestyle are established, the desire for porn naturally fades.

92: How One Man Stayed Sober While Alone and in Pain: What His Story Teaches Us About Porn Addiction Recovery

April 16, 2025 • Jake Kastleman

What happens when you're stuck at home, in pain, and totally alone? For most men recovering from porn addiction, that’s the ultimate relapse setup.

But for Steve, a client in my recovery program, this moment of isolation became the most spiritually grounded, mentally focused, and connected time of his life.

In this episode, I share the story of how Steve stayed sober after surgery while his wife and kids were out of the country—how he avoided porn cravings, built emotional resilience, and grew stronger in his relationship with God.

You'll learn:

How to overcome porn addiction when you're alone and vulnerable
Daily mindset practices that keep cravings from taking root
How prayer, scripture, and intention can replace porn as a coping mechanism
Why pain can be the foundation for real spiritual growth
How to develop a recovery mindset and lifestyle that holds under pressure

If you're struggling with relapse, loneliness, temptation, or want to support someone who is, this episode is for you.

This is porn addiction recovery from the inside out—real habits, spiritual power, and mental clarity. You’ll walk away with hope and a concrete plan to stay sober when it’s hardest.
