Am I Really Broken and Worthless?

You're here now. Which means you've got a head start on most of the rest of your generation, who are our will also have issues I suspect.

You're working on yourself, which is amazing at your age. I seriously can't even imagine having the maturity and courage to do something like that at 16. I envy you, actually - I really wish I had realised I had a problem and done something about it at your age, instead of carrying on regardless for 20-odd years first.

The education is something to be proud of, and something you will draw benefit from in the future. But the fact you are trying to deal with your issues, overcome this problem and improve yourself is even more so.

Keep working on yourself and the world will catch up soon enough and see you for the person you are and the person you are becoming. Ironically, you might even end up achieving more in life because of the work you are now putting into learning and healing yourself, than if you'd never had the addiction. I'm not saying the addiction is a good thing to have - I know first hand how horrible or is - but you can actually get strength from the process of dealing with it, especially since you are doing so so young.

You'll get there. Focus on today, on staying sober and healing yourself and trust that life will happen and it will be good.

 

Do not give up, youre only 16.. I wish I was your age when I discovered NoFap.. You know what to do! if you wanna change you gotta stay away from PMO...

Know your triggers and stay away from them..
Cold Showers, working out and meditation are your best allies, they help me A LOT

Good luck
Peace

 

Got hit hard? Perfect chance for an abrupt change!

 

Hey bro, it's tough for students like us, but treat it like an assignment. Stop worrying about what you can't control.
What you can control is your urges and you'll feel waaaayyyy better in just a week or so. Personally, I've always felt that the toughest days are the first 15. Then simpler, then more easy till your 90. Basically focus for the first month, then stuff will start 'happening' by itself. Good luck, stay strong!

 

Sounds like you got a great invitation to get back on track and become the man for that gorgeous girl. Your grades are an accomplishment to be proud of and build on. Continuing your studies will generally take you farther than skills and talents in other areas. It is nice to play an instrument or be athletic and score goals, but, unless you are incredible, that is not a plan for a good life. An advanced degree will not guarentee a good income, but it usually helps.
As for your looks, you have not arrived. I remember looking at a formal photo I had gotten at 16. I immediately ran to the bathroom with it and looked in the mirror to see if I really was that skinny and ugly. Sadly, it was a reasonable likeness; my ears were that big. In a few years my head grew into my ears, I filled out some, and I was much happier with my appearance. You will probably grow a bit more and look different in a just few years..
As you get off PMO, you will gain pride and courage. You can spend some time in the gym building some shoulders and strength, but keep up your studies. You may not be happy with what you see in the mirror today, but you are in good shape, and without PMO, you will do great. Stay with it, get off PMO, and enjoy becoming the man you really are.

 

you need to look at the bright side! you're addressing a life ruining disorder in such a young age! not everyone gets that opportunity. cheer up!

 

You just had a taste of what your life could be like if you really quit PMO, I remember when I was 16 and feeling like you do sadly I did not know NoFap back them, you are ahead of most people your age and if you keep going in six months your life can be like it was in your dreams. Being good looking is not that importante I have a friend that is short, smells bad, and is uglier then me but he has had way more girls then I did, I love being around him so does EVERYONE else.

Saying that you are ugly is another excuse to give up and relapse. Stay strong and your dreams will come true.

 

You are over the hump to your personal best.
Stay strong, and you will soon set a new record.
Blow the doors off!

 

First of all I really congratulate you for being here at age 16.Many PMO addicts decide to revise the way they're living at 20s or even 30 or 40s. But here you are! joining a fabulous community to make the rest of your life the best of your life.

Second of all you're in a critical age.I know that because I've been there.I had too much acne on my face, I was so thin and short compared to my classmates(It was before I learnt that I should never ever compare myself to anyone. We are all gifted in one particular way and just because we don't know in which way exactly doesn't mean we are not!)
I am 23 now and I can tell you none of those things matter anymore. because either they have gone away(like acne) or I just found a way to expect them as they are(like my height).I've been going to gym for a year and half and I've gained some weight and increased my BMI from 17 to 19.5. I'm not saying this stuff to impress you just saying to let you know that you can accept things you can't change(believe me a lot of thing won't matter in next 2 years so why worry too much?) and change what you can!
Who said you're not handsome or good looking? you? after watching porn and jerkin off you can't possibly feel good about yourself, I get that. But jumping to conclusions and saying that I am not good enough, handsome...is not sensible at all.
you have so much potential and remember you are only 16 years old.I can see a smart teenager who knows what he's exactly doing! I mean come on I joined this community 2 weeks ago after losing a lot of things I could have kept because of PMO. You are here and that says a lot about you.I can imagine a determined man like you can achieve so many things.Things he has written in his journals as his goals for his next 2 years!
Every achievement can influence our self esteem so your school grades just show you that you can achieve more than that.You're the same person who got those grades right?Why in the HELL you shouldn't be able to achieve more?!
You need to believe in yourself and you need to take it easy!
Life has much more to offer and you are gonna experience a lot of nice things.just wait for it!
You're on right track keep going!
Good luck!

 

Your welcome buddy!
