Bad for your mental health everytime you fap u think the neighbors can hear

Discussion in 'Rebooting - Porn Addiction Recovery' started by Deleted Account, May 10, 2020.

  1. I've been living in this apartment for way too long and although I can barely hear them but muffling sounds when talking when they cough it's loud .

    When I watch porn with the volume down I think I'm pretty quiet but before you know it your not really paying that much attention and are probably breathing pretty heavily without realising , every god damn time i would finish I would feel instantly relaxed followed by paranoia and immediately begin to feel tense and find it difficult to relax .

    Do you think that is bad for your mental health that kind of lack of privacy

    Another good reason to NoFap .

    NoFap for other reasons but the fact you can't even relax in your own damn apartment is a serious strain

    you're going to need something to divert and occupy yourself with. it helps a lot with rebooting.

    take a pencil and paper and write down the pattern you take when you get the urges.

    here was mine for example

    shower time/late night --> lock door ---> turn on other rooms fan --> lights off --> PMO

    i stopped locking my door no matter what, it's helped me a lot.

    the lack of privacy isn't as bad as watching porn all the time. i've lived in apartments too, it can get annoying at times yea but never was it annoying beyond tolerance.

    I used to turn on my bathroom fan to drown out any noises that would give me away. Mostly paranoia as I was pretty quiet and stealth. Anyway, the fan was somewhat loud and unhealthy sounding so my landlord (who lived next door) came knocking on my door one day and the old coot barked “shut that goddam fan off! It’s driving me nuts! Why the hell is it on all day anyway?!” That was sort of when I realized that I had a little bit of a problem.
