I am curious how much time you spent per week engaging in PMO activities...... Is anyone willing to share?
Per week - probably about 5-10hrs, 30 min in the morning and 30 min at night, and a little during free time. Not every day.
Last week I spent... hmmmm- 0 hours! YAAAA! On the serious note, I would spent like 2 hours just edging and fucking pillows, until I come, and then at the evening I would do same thing again except binge relapsing. I also remember the time when I listened those hypnosis videos and used some sex toys to make me really have entire day in pleasing myself, just chasing that eternal bliss. And back then I thought I was hardcore stoic person of virtues How laughable is that? I though masturbation was healthy and even necessary They said that in school. So seven years of my time got waisted by this stupidity. Perhaps even more- I really don't get why they say that in schools. Men are more productive when they are not wanking so much. One would think it is in every states interest to educate people about it, in order to maximise profit
So I’m working the 12 steps. The workbooks are largely interchangeable, and the one I’m using is a OneNote file originally developed for AA and NA. A step one question involved asking if I knew of times I “blacked out”. At first I thought of course not, as this wasn’ A chemical substance, it was a behavior, but after a while I realized that there were occasions that I meant to spend 20-30 minutes and I ended up spending 2-3 hours perusing porn, trying to find the right new videos to get an O. I remember looking at the clock and being like, “Oh crap! It’s 10 o’clock already?! Where’d all the time go?” I logged that as blackouts.
I sympathize. If I may humbly suggest, at some point in your recovery it would be beneficial to admit this and share it with someone (it does not have to be the whole internet).
HMM I think i spent like 30 mins everyday? - 3.5 hours weekly, 14 hours monthly, 168 hours a year... HOLY SHIT that's a grand total of 7 days masturbating NON STOP hahahahaha. Now i spend zero... Nice!
This is virtually impossible for me to quantify. When I was single and living alone, there were times when I could start watching porn and viewing ads at around 9pm, and literally watch the sun come up the next morning. The hours passed by as if they were minutes. On those nights, I could easily MO 6-7x. I probably did that at least once a week, and had bouts of one or two hours peppered throughout the week. Whatever the number is, it's brutal ... and had I used that time toward more productive efforts, I'd probably be a millionaire today.
Oh... I'm supposed to math now..... Let's see.. ........... 2 hours minimum a day. That's up to 3-7 hours looking for or using videos or pictures, scanning trying to find good ones. (I'm sure it was more when I wasn't around - hell he'd sneak off in Lowe's just to do it when we were shopping) That's mostly everyday I think an average of 5-6 days a week will do.... Um.... I don't want to know about M. Someone got a calculator? My brain hurts He's been PM free for 1 year and 3 months now
Well for me it was maybe 2 or 3 times a week but sometimes up to 6 hours. I just get sick when I`m writing this. Just good to know that there are other people, who have the same kinds of numbers
At the beginning of 2016 I was using 2-3h everyday at night (sometimes 30mins sometimes 5h), that's 14-21h a week, that's 56-84h a month, and would've been 650+ hours over the year if I hadn't started NoFap and changed my life Oh did I mention this was multi-screen with multiple vids on each screen?.... Man I'm gonna throw up just by realizing how sad this is ^^
Per week... hmm Hard to say. For me it really varies. If i catch myself viewing porn I make the conscious choice to get it over with. So at best I spend less than an hour per week on porn. At worst it can go to 20 hrs plus..
