    Now this story is gonna be a long one, so please bare with me.
    I've always been a sexual person, since I was VERY young.
    The first time I ever jerked off was probably when I was around 5 or 6, back then when I first discovered this I used to come back from school, strip naked in my room and just play with my dick, I wouldn't watch anything, I just liked the feeling, sometimes I'd imagine some of the girls I had crushes in too. I used to have a computer in my room but back then I didn't really know how to use it properly, but it had a webcam, and I remember turning the webcam on and recorded myself jerking off (THIS WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT LATER SO KEEP IT IN MIND).
    I also had a TV in my room and eventually I found that after around midnight some softcore porn would play on tv, and I remember spending nights looking at girls stripping their clothes and jerking my lil dick to them, I was so young I didn't even cum back then.
    this slowly progressed as I grew up, when I was around 8-10 I used to watch hentai with cartoon characters I used to watch, as well as videogame characters like tomb raider or harley quinn, as well as look at picture of naked women, and play adult games online, but I had never watched "real" porn, because since I can remember I've always suffered from anxiety, and doing anything I deemed "wrong" always made me have extreme anxiety and ocd about the matter until I told my parents( also important).
    Around when I was 10, I became really found of getting completely naked and jerking off in the living room when nobody was home, it even excited me more to leave the windows open.
    Eventually I met a kid when I was 11 and he was 12 and he showed me "real" porn, I quickly started watching it almost evey day, became addicted to watching "oily" porn videos as well as girls doing anal because back then I thought the only way of doing doggy was through anal.
    when I was 12, I moved schools, and I found out about chaturbate, and that was a life changer for me, I spent so much time looking at girls live showing their bodies, and I used to love it.
    along with chaturbate, my porn desires also progressed. I remember at one point really liking "forced" type porn, as well as gangbangs, bdsm, latex, public etc...
    Mind you I was only around 13-14 around that time, I remember one time in particular I saw a video and of a girl stripping and then she turned out to be a transwoman and I was disgusted by it (also important).
    One day, around when I was 13 my friend showed me "lightsaber" condoms that glow in the dark, and jokenly said " people use it to swordfight with their dicks"!, but that got me wondering if that actually existed, that was the first time I looked up gay porn, because I wanted to see that, and to my surprise and disgust, I found myself getting aroused by it. at that moment I felt weird, my entire life I had only liked women, had crushes on girls, and never even thought about dating or fucking a dude, yet my dick got turned on by it, it was weird for me but I let it go.
    also around that time I really got curious about seeing girls my age naked, This is something I'm really disgusted about, and haunts me to this day, but you'd be surprised on how easy it is to find pics of underage girls on the surface web. back then that was a goldmine for me, but not enough, I wanted girls my age to see me as well, so I went on omegle, and tried to talk to girls my age and sext them (I was around 13-14 then). I found some girls ( who on hindsight were only pedos trying to get pics of me) and send them nudes and they'd sometimes send back, and I loved it, i did that a lot, but to no success most of the time. eventually I found out about 4CHAN, were I quickly got to know what Lolis were, I started jerking off to that type of hentai, but eventually I wanted to see the real thing, on 4chan it got very easy to get invited into kik groups where they shared pics of underage girls, and at one point I found myself having a collection (still around 14 there).
    also around that time I started going on omegle and showing my dick off, desperadly trying to find girls, but most of the times, to no success.
    both of those things kept happening, although eventually when I was 15 I got very disgusted by my cp consuming acts and deleted it all.
    I replaced that with just jerking off on omegle almost every day, to the point where I would sometimes go to sleep at 3 am after hours of edging myself, I was still mainly looking for girls, but it got so hard that eventually I would jerk off with guys too. with that I also started watching transwoman, femboy and sissy porn. it felt like a powermove to fuck a feminine looking man, and it turned me on, but as soon as I came I felt extremely disgusted.
    but it kept evolving, eventually It got so bad that i'd sext guys on omegle to add them on snapchat and do whatever they told me, I felt pleasure on acting like a "slut".
    both those things kept happening until I was around 18, when I eventually joined chaturbate and thats when things got even worse, on chaturbate the majority of people watching me were dudes, and even though I very much identified as straight, I still loved their attention and loved when they said they wanted to do things to me. but again, that feeling of disgust will take a hold of me after I came every time. mind you even though I lead that life I was still very much attracted by women too, but straight porn started not doing it for me as much, i'd always be excited to come back to school and jerk off on chaturbate.
    I eventually even started filming myself and jerking off to myself too, it turned me on.
    that however took a toll on my sex life, I had my first sex expereince with a girl when I was around 17 and she gave me head, I liked it and wanted to fuck, but my anxiety started to kick in, I was so stressed about cumming to early that I did, I came before I could even fuck her and it was embarassing, she slept over, and the next day, we tried again, but this time my anxiety was such that I couldn't get hard at all, and that became a recurring theme in my sex life afterwards.
    I went a long time without sex until I was 19 (mind u all the chaturbate thing still happening occasionally)
    I met a girl from tinder, went to hers, and couldn't get hard again, I was so fucking anxious that i couldnt, eventually I chilled a bit and we managed to have sex, and that was my first experience, I felt like the man, I felt like I could fuck anyone. but I didn't I was still scared of disappointing.
    jump to 2020, I was still doing the chaturbate thing every now and then, still watching femboy, transwoman, twink porn, and now I had even started watching "babecocks" which consist of videos og guys jerking off next to videos of celebrities, most of the times encouraging you to do something with the guy.
    that started really messing up with my sexual identity, so I went on tinder and evenually met a girl, who I started dating, after I did, I completely quit the whole chaturbate thing, but history repeated itself as I couldn't get hard the first time we fucked, and the second time I got so excited that I came to fast, she was very understanding and eveyry time we fucked from them I got a bit better.
    eventually we started having a lot of sex, and I really fucking liked it. I even quit porn, and for a few months, I no longer had sexual anxiety and no longer wondered if I was BI or gay, I knew I loved her, and I knew I liked to have sex with her.
    that is until we had our first break up and I immideatly went back to chaturbate. after that, our relationship was rocky, it wasn't the same anymore, and I was constantly wondering if I did actually love her.
    we got back together and after that sex wasn't the same anymore, it became more boring, she eventually said she wanted to chaturbate WITH me and we did, I really liked it but she didn't , so i kept doing it by myself, and I started realizing I liked chaturbating more than having sex with her lately.
    that obviously put a strain in our relationship, which got even worse when I met a girl there and she started treating me like a "slut" and saying she wanted to see me fuck men, essentially becoming a real life babecock.
    I still had sex with my gf, but now I was constantly scared that I wouldn't be able to get hard because I had a voice in my head telling me I must only be gay.
    So I started questioning myself, I went on reddit, and posted on all types of forums about my questioning, most people saying I must be bi, some saying its porn addiction but it didn't matter, I was back down this rabbit hole.
    eventually she looked into my phone and found out about my posts and broke up with me after claiming I'm a "closeted fag".
    That hit me hard, because I had actually ruined a relationship due to my addiction, and it got me wondering if she was right, so I kept on testing myself, I watched lesbian porn, to see if i'd still get off, i'd watch gay porn to see if i'd like it better. and it did get me somewhat harder.
    but what turned me on the most was the chaturbate chick, when she treated my like a slut, it wasn't even the pictures of the men she sent, because most of the times I didnt like them, but just her ordering me around, I liked it. something similar my gf used to do was sit on my face, and I fucking loved that, I loved when she pushed my head towards her pussy.
    But now all that is over, and I'm here, asking for help, because the few times I did a nofap I did feel less attraction to these more "extreme" types of porn.
    I blocked all types of porn from my phone and laptop, and I'm trying to start a nofap, but I keep waking up with the urge to jerk off, and watch gay stuff, I feel like this whole thing just made me gay. although I feel no attraction for men outisde of a sexual setting. I'm constantly worried about it now and I don't know if it's who I am or if it's my porn addiction and anxiety speaking. I got anxiety meds that I'll start taking, along with the nofap, and I hope it helps. does anybody have any advice?

    It's just the side effect of PMO. Do hard mode for 90 days+ and you'll be fine. And don't resist the urges just accept them and move on.

  3. These are the side effects of bombarding your brain your brain with dopamine over a period of years. It’s takes hardcore, more extreme porn to get you through the finish line. These are normal side effects of porn addiction. I’ve been in a similar predicament and know it takes a lot of strength to admit the crazy things our addiction has drove us into being aroused to. The good news is you’re young and these side effects are completely reversible. I’ve been where you are and have completely recovered, so I know you can too.

    Bro how did you completely recover. Recover 100% to fge point where you don't have ho to deal with anything related to gay of course ??
     
  5. I had a 80 day streak in which I also started going out with real women. I think the combination of not watching porn & being in a healthy relationship did it. I feel sex can be used for healing, as long as its done for the right reasons and I recognize how controversial of a topic this is, but it helped me heal some of those porn fetishes I was drawn to. When I have relapsed I've also stuck with non-hardcore, non-fetish porn which has helped maintain my tolerance to pornographic content. This is what you want, now don't go out there and relapse because of me saying this. All I am saying is you have to reset your receptors to their default, factory settings, if you relapse don't go down the deep end of fetish town.

    Another helpful tip I received was that if you have to alleviate yourself, ejaculate, do so without porn. Imagine yourself having sex, not with a porn star, but with a real women. That is also a very controversial topic but it's helped me stay away from porn.

    I've tried nofap before, I think my max was 2 or 3 weeks, and it did make me feel "straight" again, I even checked gay porn but no longer felt interested in it, although I think this is probably the worse thing someone can do, is like a coke addict taking a line to prove to his friends that he's not addicted anymore.
    I'm gonna try to go for longer now, I do want to reset my brain to its default settings, or at the very least see if after a while without porn I'm still attracted to that sort of stuff. but I don't think I can go 90+ days without jerking off, specially now that I'm single so I'm not having sex. is jerking off without porn still relapsing?

    Wow. You could find out your identity by yourself. I still do not find the answer, am I bi or gay. I wish I could get the answer sooner.

    Hi @anonymous115 what a detailed story, thank you for sharing. A porn addiction affects us in different ways, yet the drivers are the same. You are worried about the effect, however the root causes remain.

    Regarding the effect, it is completely normal given the nature of hedonic adaptation (i.e. we get used to more pleasure, and that becomes 'normal', thus we seek even more extreme porn to get to the same spot). It is habituation, becoming used to one kind of vanilla porn, and it no longer arouses us. So we seek for something more extreme like anal, and then go on from there. We have all had different kinds of experiences like this - something we'd never consider in Real Life but in the fantasies inside our head we pursue all kinds of craziness.

    You may or may not be bisexual or homosexual, however getting rid of the porn addiction is the first order of business. Advice is to delete all porn accounts, get rid of all porn in every location, and delete all contact info on the individuals you used to act out with online.

    Next you need to think of how you can get connected to a group, whether SAA or SLAA or other Sex Addict groups. PAA is another option too.

    Third you may consider therapy or connecting with a church leader or SAA sponsor.

    Plenty to learn on this site, plenty to learn from books - I can recommend the SAA Green Book as a good place to start. I wish you the best.
     
  16. Stop masturbating. Stop Porn. Eliminate stress, depression and anxiety and it's causes. Stop questioning yourself FOR REAL. End it. It may take a year or more to see yourself again fully.

    I cant stop it, ill see something slightly sexual and I'll go right back to it, not gay porn anymore just babecock videos, I feel like now when I watch porn I pay more attention to the dick, even the videos I made with my ex, I feel like I'm constantly paying more attention to myself. I don't like men, but im constantly afraid I might be gay, I enjoy sex with women, I feel attracted by women and by vaginas, but whenever I watch straight porn is like my brain purposely starts questioning it and I get so anxious about it I don't get hard, and if I switch to babecocks I try to deny it but end up getting hard. I'm not sure if I'm addicted or if bi or gay, I just know men in general are not attractive to me

    I'm not even sure I can call it a porn addiction, I just really like showing myself off on cams, It's an addiction nonetheless though, I really try to st it but every time im alone it happens, I managed to stay off it for a week, then I saw 1 girl on tinder that had a nice ass, started getting horned up, started watching porn, and then 2 days later right bck to the bi stuff

    After reading this it seems to me that the general theme here is low self-worth. At some point in your life the idea of low self-worth has entered your mind perhaps even your subconscious and it has grown from there. Maybe your parents shamed you or mistreated you or your friends , or insecurities passed down from parents it could be anything really. From then on anything that would align with this idea of low self-worth would really click with you and your subconscious. For example doing what most would consider shameful acts, showing yourself because you feel you have no value, being treated like a 'slut' - a slut is someone anyone could fuck because they aren't worth much - it complements the low self-worth. Enjoying being told what to do, enjoying the attention - again it's arousing, how could someone with such low self-worth like me be worth the attention of other people? Or the idea that someone with low self-worth can carry out an act which gives pleasure to someone else. This is my take.

    I think you have HOCD, which NoFap will definitely help with. Don't think about it as getting to 90 days b/c that is difficult to do. Try to take it day by day and say "my goal is to not masturbate at all today". I didn't feel any attraction to anything IRL when I was watching porn, but now I can't keep my eyes off of girls walking down the street.
