Please do be advised that this is a heavy topic. I understand not wanting to talk about it. It needs to be talked about. If you ever want to get in touch with me for any reason, see my contact information.
Why?
You may be asking yourself why I am talking about this. Why lust? Because if I have struggled with it for the past 15 or so years, I know other people are.
I am going to first start with how I overcame it, then go into resources.
I struggled with impure thoughts my whole life. I never thought anything about wasting my seed - and that is the fundamental thing I was missing. By wasting my seed to porn or impure thoughts, which were a problem even when I was viewing no porn, I was wasting my life force. But there is a key component I was missing: my seed is a life force and energy. I was taught wrongly and wasn’t aware of the benefits of semen retention.
The anecdotal evidence for “NoFap” is strong. Here is a video on NoFap quotes I have found interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqtmPX0pQ88
I won’t go into much detail, but always rely on God and His Word.

1 Corinthians 6:18 (NASB)
18 Flee sexual immorality. Every other sin that a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
In addition to the above resources, I have found the Purity is Power by @NoFapWizards on Instagram very beneficial. Do note that the individual running this account is a Muslim.

I have also found the podcast “Overcome Pornography for Good” very helpful. Sara Brewer is a very good host who educates and does not talk down to her listeners.
