✊5 Years Without PMO - Here's What Worked For Me!✊

Thanks and thank you for sharing your story and advice

 

I'll definitely add the Wim Hof method to my routine. I just started writing in a journal when I'm experience large negative emotions like frustration, anger, and hurt. I've noticed that's started to help me get those feeling out where I used to bottle them up.

 

congratulations man. So you did 5 years hardmode and didnt have any O? Any relationships? Any automatic ej like wet dreams?

 

How can I rewire brain to women , my sexuality is still wired to screen ,it's been 4 yr I left porn . Any advise pls

 

I don't get aroused by real women but everywhere else I see images , pics , screen , for example talk to my female frnd on video call and as I look at thier face on screen ,automatically I get sensation in penis

 

Some really great stuff in there, OP. I've shared the TRE link to my sister. She also has CPTSD, and I'm sure that'll help. I also really love Gabor Mate's work, and have found it helpful.

Now I'm off to remove my counter...

 

How often are you alone?

 

IT has got less intense i would say now , i mean whenever i saw a women,even i saw her face , i get rush in my brain, i get heavy head and anxcious feeling.But it still does but less thn before. someone told me its pmo pathways activated when u see any real women or on screen. also becasue of that i wasnt not able to date or work properly because there i have to talk to people , also to women and then my brain mess up.but it is getting better as the brain recovers. its taking long time to recover, its been almost 4 yrs i left pmo and i have suffered badly in those years. but sex thoughts come to my mind or me imagineing womens body in my mind even breifly, and i still get rush in brain . so again pathways get activated even if i imagine womens body even breifly.
wat wud you say can sex harm the recovery or mastrubation without p

 

It seems like you and a lot of guys who have gone long periods of no pmo are not into hook up culture. It's interesting.

 

Yeah I guess its hard to discern what a man is to do these days...

 

My longest streak was 3 years. Then when police turned up on my doorstep and sectioned me for my fathers attitude towards me I was sectioned for a year in hospital. In there I masturbated and those medications were the cause I’m sure. I just relapsed today after a 142 day streak. I’m pretty sure I’ve lost everything in life as of this moment. I’m very upset. Being on medication doesn’t help with a reduced metabolism I hardly have any energy. I sleep early eat little and healthy and walk daily. I just had a passing thought that made me want to look it up on Google and triggered Pmo. Time to start again I suppose!

 

Oh shit,u have been a lot through.
You are right,it is time to start again and I am glad that you don't feel guilty because of your pmo behaviour,it just happens and we keep moving forward.
Life is like a river ,it keeps flowing.

Lets create the best streak ever next time.

 

thank you my friend. when in hospital must have only Pmo 3 times in the course of 1 year. I know I can do it. Medications have a lot to answer for they want to make you masturbate. But the power lies within. I will do it this time hard mode monk mode. If anyone has an iPhone there is a settings feature that blocks all in appropriate content. This is really useful. Limiting social media use and WhatsApp. Something really frightening for you to think about…. Looking at the phone after not looking at it for a few days or weeks causes sexual urges… frightening but that’s my experience. Without Pmo. But I did 3 years before.. now I will do 4 and more. I will win.. I will win. Here to a new start!
