    Hi,

    So I wanted to express my view on PMO addiction and the way to utterly overcome it.

    I personally believe that it all comes down to you & your thoughts/beliefs. Many of those who are trying to stop, including me, and fail miss out on a very important point which is "their beliefs". Why do we keep failing over and over and over again? Very simple, because we feel deprived and missing out on a precious thing. We don't see the NOTHINGNESS that P provides.

    I know you're now like "what're you talking about dude"? well let me explain further:

    Let's face it, many of us just try to stop by saying I'm not gonna watch and masturbate using this BS anymore and they might start off doing healthy things such as working out, eating healthy food, etc, and they succeed for a couple days, some who are lucky enough can survive for a week or 10 days or even 6 months -like me- but they eventually fail.

    This sounds discouraging right? don't worry, optimism is coming up next!

    Some say that as long as I'm around people I will never fall into that trap again, others say you know what, I'm just gonna fill my schedule up so that I no longer have time for this. Whichever strategy you follow, it doesn't matter because it could be and would be helpful to a certain extent beyond which you'll go back to your little fake online haram. Because as long as "your beliefs" are not set up correctly, all of what you're doing is just putting off your relapse.

    Seriously, this might be discouraging but based on my years of addiction and fighting it and trying to deal with it, it all comes down to you, yes to you and your beliefs and goals.

    Because you will never feel happy everyday
    You will never be fee of stress everyday
    And if you don't fix your

    Welcome to earth!
    This is life which is NOT perfect.

    This is why it's a VERY difficult type of addiction, because in reality you HAVE TO do everything on your own.

    And you've just supported my claim. When we don't care about it, we don't feel deprived, hence, we can go months without even knowing that were addicted in the first place. But as we start thinking about it -for whatever reason- and we know that we're no longer entitled because we've decided that we kicked it out then we suffer. On the other hand, one who changes his/her belief about it won't suffer at all because there is NO deprivation involved.


    To me time doesn't matter anymore. It only matters in terms of getting sexual ability back! but in terms of the overcoming addiction itself, once the belief is amended and strongly stuck to one's mind and kinda practiced every few days in order to make sure that it's there, then it's over. It's even enjoyable!

    So true. The first step is for people to realise they are wasting their life.
