    Hi
    I feel mood swings after my last relapse.
    I feel depressed and moderate.
    Will nofap help me find a job?or better, will it help me find direction in my life? :/

    I am 20 years old, no job, no friends, but I have GF
    I am so jealous because she paint great paitnings and she also craft cool clothes. She study arts.
    She may start selling these things one day.
    And me, for example I would like to sell things online too but have no idea what to.
    i am not good at painting, any manual stuff
    Also I have no skill at graphic, IT things..
    so being feeelancer is not a good idea
    I had a short office workee internship but my social anxiety kind of ruined my progress and after few months I lost this internship. I gained some social skills but work was too hard, the company where I was treated interns like free slaves.

    I like to read philosophy,I am kind of into psychology, books, politics, I like to exercise and workout at the gym, you know I am that kind of guy that is interested to a little bit of anything.
    Dream job? To have a business and have freedom for my passions. Maybe write a book, or make an impact somwehat.
    My father has business too so I have this idea from him somehwat. I know its kind of cliche, everyone wants that.

    Anyway, Now I feel like I have no skills and my future is dark :(
    I thought that I can recover from my addictions (Porn, Youtube, surfing internet), eliminate bad habits, discover new books, maybe attend some paid courses, improve my sport performance and maybe it will lead me to something

    I will be thankful for every opinion guys !

    Congrats for being here and for sincerity
    What did you learn from your last relapse?
    How are you taking care of yourself?
    iMHO Sleep is essential
    It is great that your gf inspires you. It is great that you are aware of your fears. Where do they come from?
    As someone I like says . Life is not a mystery to solve but a reality to experience. .
    Imho my depression fuels my uncertainty and my feeling of unworthiness and meaninglessness.
    I believe that when I take good care of my body I slowly stop asking me those complicated questions ( that doesn't mean they are not important) and start feeling what I want and where I want to go. In summary it's not by rational thoughts that I generally find the answers but by experimenting and going out of my comfort zone.

    I wish you peace and success in your reboot

    It's great to see your mature thought process at this young age. Life is all about figuring out our purpose on this earth. Some people find it early and others take time. Having wasted enough time on online porn, I can tell you from my experience that I could had been a completely different successful individual, had I invested my time more carefully. You are still in your learning phase, absorbing knowledge from your surrounding environment. This knowledge is what will help you find your direction one day. And you will find the direction, everyone does. Do not stress out or lose hope.
