My journey report- 99 Days and counting

my story is also the same as yours. i also started PMOing at the age of 15 and face all the problems stated by you.. I'm going to be 19 in a couple of months and wand to come out of this hell...
i started my nofap journey only a couple of weeks ago. i started my first challenge to abstain from PMO for just a week, but i wasn't able to reach there, i relapsed today on my 6th day, your writing gave me inspiration to start again. hope i succeed this time...

 

Great post! And a really good question, one that I have asked myself to! I think the younger generations might have even bigger problems than you and I had that age (I am 32) because of porn being more and more extreme, and more available today.

 

thanks for your reply, it means a lot to me.
all i need now is a hand which can take me away from this darkness to a place full of hopes....

 

That's a good question, I'm 18 years old and the stuff available on the internet these days is definitely affecting the youth.

I think science will have to beat it eventually, we are ahead of a movement because p- addiction is far below it's highest peak in society. About 1 to 5 years from now this forum will blow up.

Evidence and proof needs to be interesting enough for the news to broadcast, It's going to be a tough one.

@aakkss You'll be ahead of your age group, sadly to say by abstaining from PMO you have a huge advantage on almost all of your fellow males.

 

What took me to my current streak was the realization that I'm the only one who wants to make my life great. And I'm the only one who can. After which I decided I want it enough to do something about it.

 

congrats man @blogboy, good going.. you truly are a source of inspiration.. today is my 7th day.. hope I can reach where you are now...
day-6
take-2

 

Congratulation man! It's true what you say that everything happens twice. The best way not to do something is not to think about it. If those kind of thoughts come then quickly think about something else, don't indulge on sexual thoughts. We have to be very careful with our minds, the battle starts from within ourselves..

 

Your post was very inspiring @blogboy .I'm starting my streak to your post..i'm only 19 but severely addicted to PMO, I've failed 8 times already..and my longest streak was 44 days of no MO.
This time i'm going in for a 77 days hard-mode streak..hoping i don't relapse .
Wish me luck!!

 

thank you very much, it's a very inspiring advice and you know what, I completed my first challenge of 7 days and now extending it to 10 days. taking one day at a time as even Rome wasn't built in a day.

 

I think an answer to your question is simple but hard to come by. The only way a problem isn't a problem, is when you can't hide it, run away from it, dismiss it has heresy, or just say it's not an issue. This topic is hard to come out and talk about it. I have friends that say, it's nothing, a man thing, everybody does it and so on. We have to be brave, talk about it when we can, and make sure the younger generation knows the perils. Science will have to catch up to it, and start too see the bad side. Published stories, public forums, political action, whatever that is, has to happen. But we can start by admitting and finding solutions now.

If you set back and think, how much money have the lot of us made the industry itself. That's all it is, big business. Think insurance, banks, oil. In our society all that matters is the almighty dollar. Until something affects that, nobody is going to raise a hand. So sad, but rant over.

 

I agree. I'm 26 and was being shown porn at 12 and 13 by my cousins. Same with most my friends. Porn for today's generations is the cigarettes of our Grandparents' or great Grandparents' generations. It's truly damaging and addictive.

Whether teenagers pmo or not is culturally driven and is up to them. The important thing is that this site is available. It was a little bit difficult for me to find though maybe this will change in time as people are forced to look for an alternatives to a craving lifestyle. Getting past the urges / fantasies brings more and more happiness.
