I am a younger gay guy, I want to quit fapping for good because it's a waste of time and I think I would have more focus and/or energy if I stopped fapping. I do it at least ten times a day and I feel out of control. Today is day 1.
The journey to happiness starts with the first step; congrats for finding the courage to take that step. You are going to be amazed how much your life will change. Stay active here in the forums; it's been working for me. Together we stop PMO. I'm proud of you man.
Have deleted all the P from your computer and smartphone including the browser history and cookies? One of the most important things that you have to do is identify your triggers. What is causing you to turn to PMO for escape and comfort? Stress? Fear? Anger? Lonliness? Tiredness? Anxiety? Sense of not being in control? Those are a few common ones. The most important step is to determine what are healthy ways to deal with each of them. Exercise. Removing yourself from the situation. Going for a walk. Leaving electronics in another room. Only being in your bed when sleeping. Keeping doors open. Keeping as much light on as possible including opening curtains and blinds. These are some common solutions. There are others that may work better for you. If you can't come up with others after thinking about it, we'll help you.
Hey, all the very best for your journey!!! Stay strong. Stay focussed. Stay connected. And keep your sense of humour. Welcome to NoFap!
Welcome to NoFap Johnny. I think there are many reasons to quit porn and fapping. Not wasting time that could be better spent is definitely one of them. Find something more productive to do and go do that when you feel the urge. Spend a bit of time here and respond to others' posts, which can be helpful to you and them both. LLife is so much more than PMO!
