I’m 21 years old I’m a masturbation & pornography addicted for 11 years it affects my whole life, I tried to stop doing these things many times but eventually I returned ti them I found in them escapism from my problems they make me feel calm not worry about anything but after that I live my worst days feeling guilty I wish you could help me
Welcome to Nofap Hope you find the whole help you need on this site. Best wishes for you. Tbh, I felt identified with your experiences
Hi Laila, it's Jamal here. I am PMO addict for 17+ years. There is hope. I reached my 90 day mark yesterday. I am super excited 'cause before this I never could get even a month streak. There is hope because if I can do it. So can you. Just keep your mind busy and she'd away your privacy.
Hai liala, I used it as a means to escape depression,anxiety and ocd. I will help you. Do you have any sharable problems you could contact me. Im in a relationship struggle and I want to get good advice from a female can you help me ?
Welcome home @laila, you are definitely in a place where hope and success is real. Start a reboot journal, contribute daily or multiple times daily, take suggestions, and remain connected. Looking forward to your updates. Best wishes my friend.
Welcome Laila!I also joined yesterday.First things first, i i believe that we all watch porn or masturbate because we don't have something to do the hours we feel tempted.And its good to understand that porn is unreal and unnatural.Same with masturbation i think.We lust after many people we will never be intimate with and besides God created this pleasure to be shared between man and woman not for us to be selfish.Thats why we don't feel ok after doing it.I think that we should all strive to improve ourselves.Keep busy,organise your room-house, talk with people friends and exercise.Start something new like learning a language and take real good care of yourself.Good hygiene a good hairstyle and a smile when you look at yourself in the mirror is good.Most importantly don't isolate yourself.I did that and I'm an addict of 12 years.I started recovering these last days.I wish you all the best and try to be active in the forums to receive encouragement from your fellow fapstronauts!Good luck! Don't be hard on yourself!
No offence but How and why do you manage to dig out so old threads? This person may not be even active anymore but I just wasted my energy in sending her a super long nice message because I thought it was new cos it was trending
Hey there, Even i feel the same. After i relapsed i will have relieved a greater burden from myself from the urges but later i start to feel ashamed of myself. Now....here is the catch mate!!! Don't feel ashamed oof yourself. See... you have realised that porn was destroying you and that realisation is really important. You have already reached half way to succcss. Just keep moving and don't stop. Learn from your mistakes and work on yourself. DON'T FEEL ASHAMED!!! Feeling ashamed only worsens you. It takes you back to the same thing again and again. Embrace yourself and keep moving.
