you need to get serious

Discussion in 'Rebooting - Porn Addiction Recovery' started by Deleted Account, Jan 20, 2019.

  1. currently im sitting on the porch right now drinking green tea and listening to lofi, and it just hit me hard, my feelings about my addiction, the patheticness of it, honestly its one of the worst things in the world to me, i hate every second of it. And i need to take this serious, i keep having thoughts about relapsing and that showes me i am not being serious, if you entertain the idea you are not being serious, this is a very serious issue and should not be taken lightly, dont keep saying to yourself oh i cannot control myself or stop myself, YES YOU CAN! if you truly give a damn about recovering than you will stop entertaining the idea of relapsing and commit yourself.

  3. don't mind me i'm going to copy and paste your thread to a word document, and print it on a piece of paper and stick it on my wall. But in all seriousness, i truly hate this addiction with the passion and even without the addiction, porn and masturbation is so low. I'm going to get serious now. Thank you for shedding some light on the topic, and good luck!

    It really is pathetic. I have similar thoughts because it isn't a good feeling to have an unwanted attachment to something. But, at least we know about no PMO and NoFap. There are people out there who have no idea/simply deny the effects of NoFap. I consider myself very lucky because of this.

    I think this realization you have is quite beautiful and honest. I think this is a good way of starting up your path to quit, but just to quit in and of itself I think may prove impossible however with this sort of appifiny that you now just had, now that's a strong dimension you got in you because in that moment, the moment that encouraged you to not look at porn well... You probably did not look at porn hence that reality checked out temptation for the moment, so I would say exercise that reality but not just in the same way but rather an interconnected sort of way so that once you visit temptation, the realities that be, should bypass the need for temptation, if you don't do this you will naturally fail and be on the pleasure train. You are multiple people at once, a very complex human being and so many worlds of understanding, keep strong my friend :)

    Dude I've been preaching this all over the place. You wouldn't believe how many people on this forum don't understand this simple truth. They put the fault on their relapse on ANYTHING but their own choice. Triggers, depression, anxiety, Internet, their partners, etc.

    Triggers don't rob us of our free will! The moment we pick up the responsibility for our choices, the moment we realize that we're playing a game with ourselves when we're relapsing, because part of us doesn't want to let go, that's when we can regain actual control.

    Took me two years to get to this point, but now it's easy. No more daily "battles" with myself, no more fear of porn or triggers, I've made a choice and nothing can change it.
