Hey guys, Had the worst day ever after a major binge last night, really struggling with this at the moment and only able to hold it down for about a day and a half. So I was in bed last night alone and decided to take the security off my network provider which was the worst Idea ever. Even though I had to get up for work at 5:30am I was up until 3am on a major click fest!! This has to stop once and for all before it ruins me, it's so fucking annoying as I know I feel much better in life without porn!! Yet I end up losing my shit and going on an involuntary binge!! Here goes again. To all the guys who are beating this addiction my hats off to you. Time to rewire. A-ron
A-ron, Don't look at it like a failure. Look at it like a practice run. Just try to get through the day one hour at a time. Then the week, one day at a time. Don't look so hard at how far you have come, the past is behind you, focus on the next obstacle ahead of you. You are at least doing something many others don't, trying. Good luck.
Hey A-ron, Dont get depressed by the fact that tonight was a horrible night. It was crap, okay. But it doesnt mean you need to go on "an involuntary binge". That is your decision! If you decided for that, it´s your choice. But I want to encourage you to seek out for other things than PMO. This can be a time of distress but you can fill the gap with other things. If you know you are vulnerable now, go out, meet with friends, do sth. what does good to you and enjoy the evening after work. The best would be in companionship with a friend. There is no need to feel self-pity. You can do it, man. I believe in you!
Keep your head up. Know tour doing something that takes time and you'll have challenges. Your on your way so don't give up
I know what you mean, sometimes you just sit there watching the porn. Not even masturbating to it. I know it is hard, just a question have you asked your friends to set up a password for your internet security and only give it to you once your challenge is over? ps. what is your bigger goal other than nofap, do you want to learn to play the violin etc? If so focus all your energy on that. Do not worry mate we all struggle with the porn aspect, just keep trying.
I know how you feel man, i have been struggling with the same issue. Not being able to sleep at night and mobile phones and laptops right next to me..... with these types of devices in your room when you are alone or trying to sleep can very easily have the urges to watch p*** arise. Keeping any devices with internet capabilities out of my room when I sleep has worked for me, but it's still extremely tough. You may not be able to sleep for a while fighting the urges, but at least it's better than feeling miserable all night and the next day because you gave in. Don't worry breaking free of this addiction is no easy task, but we can do it, don't give up. Better days are definitely ahead for us.
Hey guys, Thank you kindly for all your responses and advice, relapsed again this morning which is crap but gotta keep picking myself up and trying harder. I am so happy I have the support of our team and how we all help each other along, it's amazing!! 90 days that's all I need, 90 days to break free!! And rewire Here's to the better days ahead!
