    Hi guys,

    I used to be a heavy PMOer for about 10 years or so. I was able to stop for 6 months and I thought it was over, however, I found out that it does not matter how long you stop what matters is how your brain views porn.(exciting or a turn off)

    Obviously the bad news is that I could not keep the streak on. But the good news is that I no longer go to porn because I get turned on whatsoever, but because of boredom and having very long free time. So I'm kind of forcing myself to PMO. Another issue is that I'm not interested in dating at all or even to get to know women at all. Is that normal? or was it caused by porn addiction?

    I tried to fill my time with useful activities but nothing feels exciting anymore, Everything has become boring and I have no energy to do nothing!

    I hate life so much a feel like I'm imprisoned!

    What is the proper course of action in such a situation?

    Focus in make money and have fun & confort with it

    If you need to hire a whore to have some fun, it is fine. But seriously, you need to cut that Porn thing. :)
     
  4. I have been in your spot before and I know exactly how you feel bro. When I was addicted to porn, and when I say addicted I mean doing it 2-3+ times a day, I destroyed my interest in everything, especially love. I had no interest in dating or getting to know women I just wanted to smash, but even just talking to a girl who was down to just smash would take to long, so porn was always there and easy to access.

    I completely slowed down my PMO addiction my sophomore and junior year of high school, and around half way through my junior year I would say I was 100 times better then I was before, I was only doing PMO once or twice a week, and to very soft vanilla porn. For some reason I still felt no emotion to women or anything, so I decided to focus on making money, and from my junior year to now I’ve made a lot of money.

    But still I had no emotion to women, well I did slightly but not like I used to. It took about a year and a half before I would finally catch feelings for a girl again, the first time in years. This was at the end of my senior year, and even though that didn’t work, a few months later and now I have feelings for another girl and we just went on our first date. You gotta give it some time, if your looking for it, you will not find it, it will come naturally.

    Don’t PMO at all, i Have been doing it since I was 8-9, and my brain is hooked on the idea that artificial stimulation is real sex, and that’s why when I get with women I can’t orgasm, and I get bored, then go home and watch milf porn. Porn is unhealthy.
     
  5. You are depressed and being depressed means life feels boring.

    Depression is lack of motivation to act, lack of desire to exert effort because one does not feel sense of purpose or anticipates any satisfaction or reward.

    When people become depressed they cope with drugs, alcohol, food, watching TV all day, or insert your behavior....


    Proper course of action is to work on your depression, figure out why you feel this way and if it is chronic seek medical help.
    Cold showers and physical activity helps allot.

    Well, before and after PMO everything is the same
     
  7. I agree with the above (@Ronila) who says you are depressed. I don't know if it's clinically depressed or not, but let's just say if you are so bored with everything...sounds like at least a mild depression. It's not a major thing if you admit it and deal with it.
    I also believe it is the addiction doing its best to mess with you. It will manipulate it's way into you and attack your most vulnerable places. If convincing you that you are totally bored will work, that's what it does. For me, I get all confident, like I have beaten the PMO. That's when I need to be most on my guard. Not the same, but that's my most vulnerable time.
