A wise man once said, "It's harder for an addict to go from day 1 to 2 than it is to go from day 99 to day 100." Or something of that effect. The longer you go without something, anything, the easier it is. This is especially true of addictions. Your brain adapts over time to rewire and live without pornography. Right after a relapse, your brain wants more and it struggles without it. It's always hard the first 1-2 weeks after relapse. But it gets much easier beyond.
