I am 22 years old, i started to watch porn since the age of 13, and as the time passed it grabbed me more and more, so by the time i had 17 i knew i had an addiction. I used to watch porn everyday, and sometimes several times in a day. Then i met a girl, she was my first girlfriend and she really changed my life, i quit porn for good because i had her, i didnt need anything else because i was with her; I loved her so much that the moment we broke up i was devastated. Ultimately i relapsed to porn, i started fapping everyday, but this time the addiction really got me, when i was younger i felt more power over it, like i could leave it anytime, now i dont, i'm depressed most of the time and everytime i fap it gets worse, i even lost my laugh and because of that, my friends; of course they dont know what my problem is, nobody knows. But now i'm over with it, this problem has destroyed my life, so i have to get it back. I will beat this addiction. Thank you for reading my story and im sorry if my english is bad, im not a native speaker. If anyone can give me any advice it will be well received.
Hey Otto, I know this will sound cheesy but do not lose hope. If friends in the real world may not understand, new friends here certainly will. Slow victories will arrive with dedication or persistence. I have kept my mind preoccupied so that I have less of a chance of relapse, I hope it continues to work. Just think of how much you want your laugh back, see if deep breathes could help you avoid thinking of PM as well as cold showers and surrounding yourself with people more often.
