Hello Everyone, my name is Tom!! I am a gay individual, who just recently graduated with my Master Degree and currently in the process of looking for a career in my field. Yet, I always have problems with PMO, it last lasted almost a decade for me!! Now as I progress into my career, I continued to carry this bad habits with me! I am so tired of it! Yet, it is hard for me to stop!! ='( I noticed that I every time when I experience stress and negative emotions, I tend to turn to porn. I usually don't masturbate without porn!! This is sad and makes me feel helpless. I also have the issue with experience relationship. In fact, I have never truly experienced a real relationship! I am feeling nervous and sad, I hope I can find light and hope here at NoFap and meeting everyone here!!
Good you made the decision to work towards changing. I am new here and realized I need to change also. It is not easy but I know we all have to start at some point. Just look at things one day at a time.
Hi Tom, The fact that you are here means that you are willing to make a commitment to change something in your life that you know is unhealthy and destructive. In fact you are already here and you accept that you have a problem that you would like to change. That is a brave first step! Now that you have identified what your triggers are (stress/negative emotions), take note of the thoughts that occupy your mind during this time. Try and not judge your thoughts, but just watch them and say "I am having a thought that .... is stressing me out or .... is making me feel negative". This may help you create some distance between your thoughts and you (the observer of those thoughts). This video may also help you: Try and not worry so much, take it one day at a time. The NoFap community is here for you!
Thank you so much for your video!! I really appreciated that you share that with me!! Truly opening my eye!! =DDD
