>To anyone who's made it farther than I have, what helped you?

Consider seriously what you can do to cut away occasions of sin. Like "What can I do that will make it so that even if I want to sin it is impossible to do so or will be very uncomfortable." Though I should advise you that the advice I have to give probably works well, but it is at the cost of being very uncomfortable because you will have to rely on your parents for this.

Something that helped me very much was that I took all of the keys of rooms that I can be alone in and gave them to my mother and asked for her to not let me take them. I also leave my phone in their room if I'm being tempted and I ask her to not let me take it at night time.

Also get Pluckeye. It's really good. If your parents are going somewhere, consider asking them to tell you in advance, so that you wont be all of a sudden met with temptation when your parents suddenly tell you "hey we're going to X place, bye." Once you know that you're gonna be alone, turn on Pluckeye and find a way to get rid of your phone (you can do this probably by just asking one of your parents to take it with them or just hide it somewhere you won't find it).

After I recently started doing this, I was able to go farther than I had ever gone before in a long while and even temptations that would normally be there are no longer there because sinning is not even a possibility most of the time.

A book that’s helped me with not just my porn issue but when I struggle with a particular vice is called “Saintly Solutions to Life’s Common Problems”. It’s available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Saintly-Solutions-Lifes-Common-Problems/dp/1928832377

Also, aside from having an accountable partner to help keep you accountable is focusing on the big picture. You have to deal with lust and porn till the day we die; however, maybe figure out why you want to quit and focus on the big picture. It is about having the right mindset and attitude. For me, I want to quit because I don’t want to bring my porn use into my relationship with my future wife and future children. I realize that my porn use is incompatible with my Catholic values and beliefs. I have quotes and texts that I keep on my computer when I need inspiration during the hard moments. For example, I have written on my computer desktop “my porn days of are over”. The reason this is important is because it is a mindset shift from someone who is recovering from a porn addiction and all it takes is another temptation to cause a slip up to someone who has began a new chapter in their life. And in this new chapter is a spiritual journey too and the days of the past do not align with the days of the future. Therefore, it has to be a new chapter rather than a recovering addiction.

I also created an action plan for what to do when I do slip up. It helps me to to focus on my thoughts as to the cause of my slip up and figure out possible solutions to prevent it in the future.

I have also used “brain buddy” to help me with my porn use. It is a phone app that counts the number of days of not using porn and gives me reasons why I need to quit porn and exercises to help me rewire my brain after my porn use.
