I need to NoFap more than others do here ~ I think most of you just want to increase your self-discipline or stop porn for the sake of stopping porn but I am struggling from erectile dysfunction, prostate issues and pain that is 100% the result of the way I masturbate. The first step in treating those issues is to abstain from any form of PMO for at least a few months. However, I can't get started. I can't get myself to do something that is paramount for my health. How much of a failure I am?
You can do this ! Porn is slavery, not doing porn is freedom , freedom of having much more time to do positive things vs yucky browser , freedom ofnot having black shadow over you. Porn doesn’t give stress relief it adds to it! Get on the train you can do this !
A start would be figuring out the pattern in these failures. It is common for people to relapse specifically when trying to fall asleep, and there are many reasons for that. Another big one is engaging in fantasy.
You only feel it's impossible to quit at the first days but then it gets easier. every single time you resist an urge it will become easier to not watch porn.
The first day is the hardest. And then the second day is the hardest. And then the third day is the hardest... And so on... Until about a week for me and than it gets super easy. Sadly, it is also easy to relapse. Just need one slip.
