    So i relapsed 4 days ago and have been fapping excessively since then, like 4 times a day and now im completely at the end, its like my fucking feelings are completely numb. I just sit here in front of my damn computer and look at it like the biggest loser i feel so much guilt and shame i dont know what to do next. Im feeling awful, exhausted and just fucking empty. I was on a 20 day streak and relapsed after that. Then i got to a 7 days streak and then a 5 day streak. Im just disgusted by the shit i look at. I want to stop but its like my brain is just in Autopilot its awful.

    Hey, man. Have been there thousands of times. Don't push yourself too hard. Yeah, we're addicts, that is the sad truth. And addicts do relapse. What options do we have here? Keep relapsing or keep trying not to. nothing else. We're all in the same boat here, and no one is totaly safe, even those who have years of porn-free. Our brain have backdoors for porn now, and that is for life. But at least during streaks we're alive. Relapse is always hard, due to all those lost hopes, but we have to live on. Keep trying. No other way.

  3. Honestly I used to be the same way, I would relapse and I would feel so helpless. What helped me was actually engaging with members here and having people support me in my journal and the posts I made on my profile as well as vice versa, helping others truly does help yourself

    Gotta take responsibility and control of yourself and your actions. Meditating is a great activity to help ground you and keep you in the present moment. When you're in the present moment, thoughts and "urges" as many like to call them, do not exist. You need to look at what you're doing, understand how shitty you feel and what you're doing to yourself and use that as motivation and drive, and passion even, to stay strong on your journey. Many people do not like to hear it, but not relapsing is as easy as 1, 2, 3. The secret many don't know about is that you can't just give in to your mind, when many people feel this sexual energy they completely give into their mind which isn't them, and they let the primal urges take over, once they relapse they come back to themselves and realize what was just done. When you are present my brother you will not worry about that, you will see sexual energy for what it is and learn to sit with it. I recommend meditation highly as it is one practice that has gotten me on my year long semen retention streak.

    Don't call yourself an addict. Honestly being an addict to porn and this shit is pretty rare, believe me. You might be highly into it and aroused by it but I doubt you are an addict at all. You can and will be able to beat this so keep your head up and learn some preemptive measures.

    I don't think that's the best way to encourage someone. You don't know if he has a porn addiction and he can certainly beat this if he really puts his mind to it. It requires great self discipline and action but it isn't an impossible battle. Just giving in isn't an option and not being too hard on yourself isn't an option either. You have to understand you're completely fucking yourself up, your sexuality, your brain, and any chance you have of ever being what could have any semblance or be referred to as a normal human being. Beating your dick all day is totally optional and "addict" or not anyone can beat it, and I mean anyone. I've seen men that are fucked up from head to toe beating their dick daily like a smoker would smoke cigarettes on the DAILY mind you. Guys that are completely losers and wasting their life and they're able to beat it. If they can so can anyone else in this thread and anyone else on this forum. The keys to freedom are sitting right inside of you, laying dormant and scattered upon the path less traveled by. If you want to beat it you can, you have to want it.

    I know what it is. But in the way it’s used in this forum and by yourself you believe that you’re hooked in this for life and the only thing you can do is try to fight it, that isn’t true.

    People in this generation are so quick to fall into labels or give themselves a self diagnosed disorder. You can be the man that you want to be brother, I can bet a large sum of money that you’re not as bad off as you think you are. You’re stronger than that

  11. Good news is you can turn off autopilot. I know it's hard. Give yourself something to aspire to - start a new workout routine or start learning something or being more productive in your daily life. Quitting porn is hard when you have no reason to be motivated. There are still 246 days left in the year - wouldn't it be nice to have a streak that high? You can start now.

    I'm just glad I'm not sticking a needle in my arm every time I relapse, we got the easier of the addictions, we got lucky
     
  13. I'm not so sure about that. Everyone will agree that hard drugs are a bad choice. But there are a lot of advocates for porn and deniers of porn addiction in the mainstream. Besides, porn addiction affects us on a chemical level as well, and it can have hugely damaging consequences. On top of that, it's easy to obtain - you don't need to find a dealer for porn. The list goes on.
