New here, and need help

Discussion in 'New to NoFap' started by Deleted Account, Jan 3, 2017.

  1. Hello fellow fapstronauts, i registered here today after jacking of the third time to some disgusting shit. Which still turns me on. But i dont want to be turned on by that. I need help, i just cannot stop. When i am travelling or sth, there is no problem, but when i am at home with laptop and internet-access, i am lost. I am 35 and have been desensitizing myself the last 20+ years. I NEED to stop that shit. I have a social life, and also sexual encounters, but i think i loose the ability to enjoy sex with a nice woman, or the woman i should fall in love with, and fantasize about [TRIGGERchoking her throat with my dick after pulling it out of her assTRIGGER] instead. I have to laugh right now about this last sentence but it is sad actually, and still harmless comparing to other fetishes i developed. I think i am sick sometimes, but then i read about some experiences here and i feel relieved in the way that i am not alone with that shit, and that it might be not my brain that is sick, but that learned sick through years of porn. I said to myself 1 million times in the last years that i won't do it anymore. And always do it again. How do i start here?

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and not judge you.
    What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

  3. Hello D.J., thank you for your reply. I don't know. Have to start a journal i guess... If i could just destroy my porn collection and not collect new ones, maybe, just maybe it would be easier. But with this goddamn internet you don't even need a porn collection. ... I also thought about visiting a psychologist, but i am also quite ashamed of what i jack off to sometimes. The one thing i realised is that i won't quit alone just with will power or deciding to quit, it just does not work. I need help. Even writing my first messages here feels like some huge step for me :) ..

    You know, it's okay to be disgusted at where PMO has taken you, the more disgusted you are, when you are in control of your addiction, the less likely you will want to return to it. Check out In Case You Didn't Know, it may offer some suggestions which may help you.

    I have worked with a psychologist and it was insightful in understanding why I used PMO, no shame there, a good psychologist is well trained in all kinds of pathologies, and their job is to help people 'slay their demons' if you will....A piece of wisdom I picked up from this work is (my paraphrase) "If you dont replace the bad habits with good habits, the bad habits come back ten-fold." I started doing crossfit again, find something that puts you in a community of like minded people. Also, starting a journal is essential IMO, I don't go into much detail in mine, but if nothing else its accountability to the computer and the forum that keeps me going. Just my $0.02

  7. Thanks ASmitty, started a journal one minute ago :) I try this with this community, will install a website blocker and try to make new habits. Meditation i did and i know how good it does me, not just concerning nofap. Want to make it a habit again. If it all does not work out i will consult a psychologist too. But for now this is my first serious try in quitting, and with serious i mean, although anonymous, not totally alonge, and with doing a journal here and likeminded people with similar problems. Thanks for you 0.02 cents, it is mor like 20,00 dollars for me right now :)
