The reason behind PMO? There are MANY reasons.

    Hi my dear friends.

    Well, I had been on a 28 day streak then relapsed HARD.
    Then 2 weeks then a bad relapse. Im going for 5 days and I feel OK.

    I asked myself, and looked back, on why PMO?

    Here are some of my findings:

    1.- Lack of a father figure.

    Many times, we touch ourselves as boys, we need to grab hold of our "manhood". Sometimes we just grab the whole tool set, as an affirmation of our virility.
    Anyone who has been raised by women knows that, most of them, emasculate boys. They dont care about the manly side of your development.
    Thus masturbation is the need to confirm and assure yourselves of being and feeling like a man.

    2.- Stress, anguish and problems in our social circle.

    Yes. Our emotions can bring upon us a great deal of stress, especially if they are family related.
    Many, many times we "unload" due to feeling the need for "release". I can honestly say, that 60% of me squeezing the dolphin, has come from feeling overwhelmed by stress at work, school, home etc.

    3.- Childhood trauma from seeing porn or being abused.

    I was a happy go lucky kid, very smart (I went to a Open Learning school for little genius', I finished school at 14), I liked having friends, playing....untill I stumbled upon a movie that a friends next door neighbors was watching. Those images were engraved in my head and traumatized me.
    We have all seen porn at a certain age, but when it happens suddenly and when your young.....it is devastating.

    4.- High sex drive.

    Some of use are endowed with a lot of testosterone, vigor and energy. When we do have sex, we can last over 2 hours. Women love us.
    But when there is no girlfriend or wife? You bottle up and explode. Thats when we have to do heavy exercise, meditate and go beyond our excess energy.

    5.- You are a loving, caring person. Passionate and giving.

    It sounds gay, but its true. A lot of us are romantic, caring, good hearted. We see sex as something special, but we have been trapped by PMO.
    EVIL KNOWS THIS. That is why we have been enchanted, cursed and broken by this addiction: precisely because we are passionate and loving.
    Only a person who identifies with these traits can understand. We need to have order and peace in order to channel our emotions and love.

    So people: you are not perverts!

    Dont feel like shit just becasue you PMO, its a burden, BUT WE CAN CONQUER IT.

    You dont fap because you are a looser, you do it because there is something in you that is hurt, or in disorder.

    Heal on the inside, spiritualy, and I guarantee you will see and embrace the light and the end of the tunnel. That is, victory over PMO.


    Best wishes to all my friends who are walking the steep, hard path to healing and success.

    Thanks, bro for these encouraging words. I can totally agree to the most mentioned point which also played a role in my life. I liked part 5. There you see that PMO is just a perversion of a very good and laudable attribute. We should learn to channel the drive in the right direction. Then it can be useful and powerful!

    All the best.

    Precisely because we're passionate and loving.

    I watched the Greenmile yesterday, I remember John Coffey saying about wild bill,
    "He used their own love, he use their love to kill them."

    I feel better, thank you very much for reminding me. It ain't a happy movie, but it's a hell of a good one. Some good stuff.

    very good points here. point 4 is the most important for me.

    this damn sex drive. i think we lost the control. it is really hard to get the control back.

    i compare myself with some of my friends. some of them are like me - with very high sex drive and some of them are really calm and they have a low sex drive.

    i think this is depending on our nature - there is this horniness which is burning inside us all the time.

    and this is not a gender problem. it does not matter if you are a girl or a boy.

    Very good analysis. I relate to it completely. Thanks for sharing these uplifting observations (accidental pun).

    Why did I relapse after 130 something days of no PMO? I was bored, I had terrible anxiety, and P is very easy to access. There's really no hidden or deep meaning behind my use. At times I truly enjoy it. When not using I haven't noticed any effects other than not being interested in women at all, fewer erections (because I'm not looking a P or thinking about it), having slightly more free time (about 10 - 20 minutes a day), and the daily leakage of "white stuff" in the toilet after urinating. I also feel less gross because I'm not fapping. Still, I'm trying NoFap again for my own reasons (I could really use those 10 minutes a day) and if I notice anything I will share.
