As someone who has and is currently fighting the DEMON I can say that personally no I wouldn't use pins or a release. I did try string walking to use the shaft as a sight pin but it only made things worse.
I don't wish this on anyone but I will say until you've experienced it you will never understand it.
It is purely mental, for me I could draw my bow back while saying in my mind "I'm not going to let this arrow go" and before I get anywhere close to settled in on a spot, WHOOSH it's gone. You can draw while looking at a spot on the wall or the T.V. and hold forever but try it with a target in front of you and suddenly you can't control your own body.
I believe it's like being an addict. Once you have it (or it has you) you have to work at not backsliding but you're never really cured.
I'm currently working on a new treatment that seems to be helping. Still to far away to say conclusively, only time will tell.
