Lost hope

Man, I know it's really gutting to blow up your streak, I've been there with my 31 days. It's even worse when you thought we were finally getting somewhere and messed up because the addiction is just there waiting for you and now you've been on a binge. But since you've come to this forum there is still some fight left in you Just because you've stumbled does not mean you've fallen. You know what's it like to keep a good streak alive. Think about what you felt like during this time. And bring it back. Quitting porn and masturbation is a hard battle and we all have our ups and downs. Now, it can only get better. And just know that there is some random dude in the world on the internet who believes you can do it.

 

Blowing up your streak feels bad. But beating porn is difficult, but don't let that discourage you. Think: this is not like me, this time I quit for real. Now i know how bad it feels to watch porn.

 

That's a great statement!

We must remember that every minute of every day.

We must put the shame, guilt, and other bad consequences in our minds before the act.

 

I know that feeling of losing hope.

I've at times lost hope about many things.

Thinking about time--how much is ahead--helps.

I see you are only 20.

(You have a lot more time ahead than I have at 46.)

Two or three weeks blown in a PMO binge is a loss of time.

The next three weeks, however, can be a good time without PMO.

Now, imagine the great expanse of time beyond that.

You can then live for years and decades without this problem.

You have much more time, and in that time, there is hope.


These suicidal thoughts seem to be due to more than just your PMO problem.

You say you've lost the hope of achieving anything in life.

It sounds as though you've come up to road blocks in other areas.

This last porn binge may have been an escape from all those.

Porn and suicide can both be seen as forms of escape.

The problem is that PMO can only make all of these frustrations of life so much worse.

After you've gone a while without depleting yourself in PMO, your energies will increase.

You'll see more clearly and be able to imagine more things as possible.

Right now, you are in the thick fog of a PMO hangover.

That is, in large part, why you are depressed.


Again, think about the great expanse of time.

Everything in the world is constantly changing.

That makes it highly likely that things for you and for me can change for the better.

When things change for the better, today and everything that happened the last three weeks will appear small.

They will be dwarfed by a greater expanse of good time.

And, all this will be forgotten.


Cheers!

 

You lost Hope? If you suffer then its because you are still alive.
If the world is dark you still know the light. Hope is not born in happiniess.
Hope is born when everything seems lost.
Hope is the one thing that will face an entire army of demons for you.
It's what fuels your soul and makes you remember that this is your life!
Stop enduring your problems which make every day to a living hell for you.
Accept the pain and the fear which are warning you to stop because you will fail.
Accept every outcome! Raise your heart! To the sky! Let it shine with every part of your soul!
FIGHT BACK! Become the one person you need most. Become your own Hero!
Become the Hope you need most!

 

Make it two random dudes!

 

This kid.... he really was already a Hero... before he knew it.

 

Damn, this thread seems lost.
