Anyone Else Experience This?

Discussion in 'Loneliness' started by johnwiks, Feb 3, 2019.

  1. Hey guys,

    I'm on day 25 of no PMO. I've been feeling very lonely lately. This is my longest streak and I've experienced many benefits. But, I'm starting to feel very lonely and sometimes depressed. I want a girlfriend so bad. I don't think I'm flatlining because I'm still experiencing urges. Anyone else experience loneliness around this time? This sucks
     
  2. We’ve been using porn to mask bad feelings.

    No more PMO and now we’re faced with those negative feelings head on.

    For me the huge one has been loneliness. No PMO in my life and I realize just how alone I am. PMO in my life and I don’t feel so bad.

    But I’m not handling the issue correctly when I PMO.

    I need to get out and socialize in order to combat loneliness.

    I only have about a week since the last time I gave in and it's hitting for me to. When you stay away from PMO it allows a lot of stuff that has been buried to surface and it's a call to face it head on in a healthy way, fitness, socializing, new hobby/business. Find a goal and an outlet that speaks to you, your energy and mind will be occupied with whatever it is that you are doing and when people see your passion they'll be attracted to that and also there is no easier way to socialize then when you are working on something that is important to you, you'll come across others who are into what're your doing and your passion and energy will attract them. In all that you can come to love yourself and accept being alone and then you'll be in a powerful position to bring a woman into your life. Hope this helps, I have a tendency to rant.

    All the time. There is some extra time everyday which otherwise spend of fapping. Previously, that was pleasure time. But now, since actively resisting the urges and trigger, there is much frustration and boredom lead to loneliness and depression even in a crowd. It's part of the process. Mind and body going thru change. be patient and trust the process.
