My partner caught me watching porn.

...See more So this is very new to me and my very first open talk about this. I have been struggling with porn addiction for quite some time now. I was introduced to it at 6-7 years old by finding my mom’s old collection. Travel to the present I am 22 years old and have a problem with it. It got so bad I made a fake email so I can scroll on Reddit and watch it there without affecting my main email. My partner discovered this and showed me how severe my problem really is. I understand making that fake email was probably the dumbest thing I could’ve ever done. I want to change. Not just for her but for me as well. This IS something that I’ve wanted to quit on my own even before she found out. I also do not have insurance for a therapist otherwise I’d be talking to one. Does anyone have any good ideas to distract/ kill the urge to watch it? I’ve already deleted the fake email and do not intend on restoring it as that would just be “relapsing” and very critically damaging to my relationship. I want my partner to know that I do love her and her body it’s just I have a problem that I need to quit. Any and all advice would be appreciated thank you.
