    I’ve had an issue with porn since 1991. Never been able to quit. I’ve actually moved away from videos in recent years which has been positive I think. Unfortunately, I use dating sites like Plentyoffish to chat with women. I also look at webcam models. I’ve been able to abstain for longer period. I used to be a 4 time a day, no sleep guy. Now I can limit everything to the weekend. Sometimes I even skip weekends.

    My mom passed away recently. My life is so empty. Weekends don’t matter. Dinner doesn’t matter. Watching movies or sports doesn’t matter. I’d spent so much time with mom I have trouble without her. I can feel the urge to visit the websites. I feel the need for that momentary rush. I just want to be numb. I am trying but usually after about 11 days , I feel awful and give in. I’m at 7 now and came here to share my story. Maybe someone can relate.

    I can relate. When my mother passes, I will be crushed. Lost. I'm sorry for your feelings. I can't take the pain away, but I can "sit" here with you in the pain. You are not alone. Don't give in. Try to work towards something. Accomplishment in itself can be motivating. A job. A hobby. Cleaning your house. Doing dishes. Anything really. You got this.

    2 nights ago I was crushed by the grief of bereavement, my dearest and most beautiful friend left this earth plane. I am in the midst of pain and loss that I am finding beyond my ability to cope with. But I am also trying, I am listening to some talks about transforming this despair and devastation into love and understanding and nofap will support me too.

    I lost My Mom to cancer, 1year ago, after that I lost my dog to cancer, After that I lost a good friend to suicide. This one was tuff because no one saw it coming. After he passed His Grandfather passed, then after his Grandfather passed his Dad passed, Im sure of a broken hearts. Now it's November And I just lost my father to cancer. I can't seem to find a way out of this death of People passing. Sometimes I think its easier to just go work in a Morgue. So you're not alone. This place is a great place to come and get things out. Sorry that you had to go through your loss. But the only thing we can do is DAY BY DAY.

    Yikes! Sounds like quite the ordeal! Glad you are handling it in stride, though. It must be very difficult. This is good word, though. Pure wisdom!
