Hi, I' m just curious to know your different reason for quitting pmo , Mine because i founded a strong attraction in my life that don't let's me do my important tasks , and also is draining my energy. Waiting to know yours Good bye
Yesterday I spent almost the entire day off at the computer watching porn and masturbating, once again being depressed that I did not do a hard work on that day. I know that without this addiction I could achieve more, that I can afford more. My 31. birthday is about to come, I think it's about time, maybe the last moment, not to spoil an adult's life.
Finally realized that it was an addiction that was negatively affecting my life and wasn't something I could just do on a random occasion without having a full relapse.
First I realized I am addicted to a habit, now it’s my pleasure to break the habit. First I made the habit, now I break the habit. And feels wonderful!
A few years ago I wanted to quit and make that as a habit of the past. I wanted to think of it as something i did when I was a child, and becoming more of an adult I wanted to make a step forward. Well, fast forward 2 or 3 years, I am now 26, and want to do the same thing. Have that as part of my old life, and move onto something new. I'm not really living life as much as I could, and I'd just like to focus on myself more. Be a better person and so on.
It's part of general self-improvement for me. I've never had a particularly good life; but I spent most of my 20s paralyzed with pain and fear. I just can't live like that anymore. I have to make my life better. This is just one of those things that I can do.
Why do I want to quit porn? I guess I should start with why I built up my porn addiction. I would believe that I wasn't so satisfied with my life and had problems that I want to dodge, so instead of facing them, I resort to porn. Of coz, we all have urges but it doesn't necessarily turn us immediately to pmo. For me, this addiction grows because it gives me a little escape from the reality. Escape from the fact that I actually like guys, even though I consoled all my friends nobody cared about their orientation at the end of the day, deep down my heart, I know I feel embarrassed of my little secret.
To basically get rid of my anxiety be happier have a more successful life. Ive had long enough streaks now to know the huge difference nofap brings. All my fuck ups and failures in life make so much sense now and its held me back wayyyyyyyy too long!
I use pmo to manage anxiety, but it also creates anxiety and distances me from other people. It ruined my last relationship and continues to lead me to compromise the person I know myself to be.
Religious reasons, to have more time in general to spend on myself, and to stop hurting those around me.
Religious beliefs, faithfulness to my wife, increased energy and self-esteem, and tired of wasting time
-personal growth -spiritual beliefs -increased energy and confidence -to assist in accomplishing goals -decreased anxiety/depression -better able to accomplish daily tasks.
