    Dear brothers and sisters
    It had been 6 days I haven't watched porn and haven't m*********d. However I know this won't last forever. Porn gives us 0-60 jolt of dopamine or reward which we don't get other sources.
    I don't drink, don't smoke, don't have a gf or casual sex partner, Don't have close friends or family near me. I'm a single father recently divorced with a lot of pain. I'm Catholic but focused to much on sin causing me religious OCD. I live in a small town. Catholics here are very judgemental.
    I came here for non religious advice and empathy (no God please).
    If I buy fleshlight and use it say every two or three weeks as an incentive instead of mas*******g and watching porn will this be a good start as a reward? Something to look forward to since I have no intention to date for a while.
    Non religious advise and empathy please.
     
  2. Hi Orjoon,

    I feel your pain comrade. You feel judged by you fellow Catholics. FORGET THEM! Concentrate on Catholic teaching and your own personal relationship with God. Do this and nothing else will matter. I know you wanted non religious advice pal. But your expressed religious issues with yourself and others can't be ignored. I felt compelled to address it.

    You must of course have compassion for yourself and others. But when does compassion turn to self indulgence? The simple truth is Orjoon we must have boundaries. Otherwise anarchy reigns. Often, and this has been the case with me, we want healing and abstinence. But we want it on our our own terms!

    Such immaturity, and selfishness, is the root cause of PMO addiction. I wish I could give you a magic formula Orjoon. But nobody can! I advise you to find an accountability partner and an understanding, but firm, therapist.

    Good luck comrade!
