Start of My Life Transformation

Discussion in 'Rebooting - Porn Addiction Recovery' started by LifeTransformation2017, Mar 22, 2015.

  1. Today is day 1. Yesterday I relapsed 3 times. In the thread I wrote I said I relapsed twice. I relapsed again after writing that thread. I said I would never masturbate or view pornography again, but I relapsed a couple hours. What really got me was that I relapsed during the NASCAR race. I gave up watching my favorite sport so that I could sit in front of computer and masturbate. This has to stop! I have been battling this addiction for more than two years. It's had so many negative effects on me. It's caused me to develop social anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder. This addiction also caused me to have trouble concentrating and paying attention, which makes school very difficult. Another negative effect my addiction has had on me is it's lowered my overall confidence and self-esteem. I need to turn my life around and beat this addiction. I don't want to still be battling this addiction years down the road like some of you are. I'm 15 years old and I was fortunate enough to discover I had a problem. There are many kids my age who masturbate and view pornography on a daily basis. I can't live like that. When I PMO I feel like I ruined the day. When I binge like I did yesterday I think about all the more productive things I could have done during the time I used to PMO. PMOing is the biggest waste of time. I've said this before and I'll say it again: Nothing good comes out of PMOing except for 10 seconds of pleasure. Those 10 seconds of pleasure are not worth all the frustration, disappointment, and regret you face after relapsing. Today isn't just day 1 of NoFap. It's also the start of my life transformation. I want to live a happy, healthy, porn and masturbation free life. One thing I want to do is start making healthier choices when it comes to eating. I need to start eating less junk food and chose healthy snacks over unhealthy ones. I'm hoping a can lose some weight by doing this. I also want to start exercising more often. I heard that exercise can keep you from getting urges and relieve stress so that could definitely help with my addiction. I'm willing to do just about anything to beat this addiction. To do that I need to take the right steps to resist urges. If I get an urge I need to immediately stop thinking about the urge and find something to do. If I can't get my mind off the urge I need to read my relapse prevention note to motivate me not to relapse. I also need to always keep myself busy so that I don't get an urge in the first place. Lastly I need to come on this forum more often. I will be posting an update every Saturday. I'm hoping all these steps will help me finally end this horrible addiction. Today is March 22nd, 2015 and I will never masturbate or view pornography again.

    Way to go bro! I just joined nofap and am hoping tonight was my last PMO ever (though I've said that quite a few times).

    Set your heart on your goal being free from porn and masturbation. Keep your mind on what is the correct things to do. When you feel urge or temptations are near, change what you are doing. Find good things to replace the bad. Prayers for your strength.
