    In order to break any addiction whether it’s drugs or alcohol or porn one needs to have a strong reason WHY is that right? And if their WHY isn’t strong enough they’re probably going to fail is that also right?

    I’m struggling to come up with my WHY but how is this: Does porn and jerking off steal away from our happiness? Every time I do the bad deed is it stealing away other potential life experiences that I could otherwise be having? Or, more importantly, does porn and or masturbation actually steal feel good chemicals from our body that otherwise is going to make us happier? Our we LITERALLY happier without porn in our lives? Are we happier without masturbation in our lives? I’m struggling to put this in words but if anyone thinks they get the gist of what I’m saying I’d appreciate the response. Thanks.

    If I new that every time I look at porn and or masturbate that I am scientifically making myself “unhappy” that might be the WHY I need to help me get in control of nofap.

    What are the usual 'negatives' that go along with PMO? (Shame; unmotivated; lazy; physically weaker; depression; loneliness; isolation; bad example; less energy .... etc.)

    What are the usual 'positives'? (Good example to others; Ability to look others in the eyes with confidence and peace; more assertive/verbal/stand up for your & others rights; stronger physically; more interest from women [they are more attracted to men not showing signs of weak behavior.... fear... anxiety and shame...)
