Serious addiction

Ace-36 · Oct 15, 2018

For the last 2 weeks I’ve been doing PMO constantly and I’ve been on a crazy binge for the last few days, after telling myself the that I was done with this whole thing. So much for that. The thing about it is that I know that MO is not really the problem but the porn is because I’ve been on decent nofap streak plenty of times but yet I still find myself watching porn. I know it’s serious because I find myself constantly looking at it even when my body doesn’t physically want to. As soon as I wake up I’m on my computer looking for something to watch. It’s gotten to the point now that regular porn isn’t enough anymore and it’s led me to looking at things I know I normally wouldn’t even think about or be attracted to and when im done disgusts me. It’s like the stuff that I once would watch seems boring now. I just can’t seem to stop though and it’s driving me crazy. I don’t want this to continue because this has been an issue for me for years now. It’s even had and effect on the way I see and interact with real everyday women and that’s a major issue. It’s like I don’t even bother talking to attractive women I see because I don’t have that edge needed to do so because I probably just PMO’d right before I left the house or something. I mean choosing to watch porn and MO over real life sex? Thinking logically about it that sounds crazy but once that urge hit logic goes out the window. I admit it I’m addicted and it’s serious but I for the life of me figure out how to stop. Please help!!

Hello, it is a nice first step that you come here. You can find plenty of materials and inspiring people at this forum. I think you should start with reading available materials about porn addiction to better understand your problem and success stories of other members. Enjoy and remember - you don't do things you don't want, right?

I know exactly what you mean, I'm in a similar position. You feel somewhat "possessed" when you get the urge, like you know exactly what you're doing but it doesn't matter as long as you get to O, but after that you feel down.

But what you just did is a step in the right direction, getting this stuff off your chest will help ease your mind at least in the short term. You also have to find something to do.

"Idle hands are the devil's workshop"

Please don't take that as me forcing religion on you (I consider myself agnostic) but it's the truth. If you don't have something to do and you're alone for an extended period of time you'll be more susceptible to the urges. If you have no positive thing to translate the urges into (e.g. going on walks, volunteering, any hobby, or basically anything more productive than fapping) then you are more likely to just fail again.

Please take my advice and find something better to do, I currently haven't and it's made my addiction/depression worse as it's gone on.
