Hi everyone! So just few minutes ago I was in toilet decided to do screw up my reboot... I was home alone (I think you all know that it’s an additional challenge during reboot). And suddenly my family came back. It stopped me from failing my reboot and most importantly myself. And now I’m thinking, how it’s so, that few minutes ago I was willing to screw everything and few minutes later I think totally different. Who’s in power of my head? I mean. I was always thinking why it’s difficult for people to quit smoking, alcohol and so on. But now I know that it’s difficult... I wouldn’t say that stop PMO is more difficult, but it’s more difficult to find reasons to stop it. And no, don’t tell me now in all your replies “for your health, sexual life, brain and so on”. I’m talking about strong reasons like for example smoking has “you kill yourself, you have bigger potential to have cancer, furthermore you hurt people around you”. Wow. That’s what I call Strong Reasons. I think the lack of strong reasons is main reasons why devil or whatever you call it takes over my brain. What you think?
TLDR: The logical part of your brain has less blood flowing to it when you have an urge. This video goes into it a bit more:
Maybe so, but I wouldn’t let it get to the point of having a ‘strong reason’ to quit. The worst stories I have read here as well as the physical harm it does to your body speaks for itself. Why continue it just because you haven’t yet encountered worse situations or effects? When the addiction gets worse it leads to more incomprehensively difficult circumstances. You have the chance to not reach that point, by quitting, so take it! Keep on with your nofap journey. You have many other things in life going well that wont be jepardised if you take the right path now. Do what is right, take this step to better your life and don’t look back!
Thank you @JJackson! I liked the part about triggers and how to avoid them. I will try to do everything what was recommended. Thanks man!
@slink123456 everything what you say makes perfect sense. I have many things to do in my life, even drinking a cup of coffee is amazing thing, I must remember that! Anyway, thanks a lot!!
