Relapsed:(. Anyone help me?

What changes are you anticipating or expecting from recovery?

 

Whenever one has more self-mastery and self-control, then self-confidence will most likely ensue. You would probably experience increasing degrees of this self-confidence as your recovery progresses and as your return to addiction diminishes and is extinguished. Being tired can come from other factors as well, not just this addiction - but as far as this addictions contributes to being tired, that may well improve.

 

@Daviesmark1 dude you're 17! Masturbation is normal. You say you rarely look at porn, thats good and keep it that way. But really maturbating once in awhile, hell! even once or twice a week is fine. Men have been doing it for....ever! Porn is the gamechanger so as long as you dont let that creep into your world you'll survive. As far as the tiredness and depression is concerned what makes you think its from masturbation? Id reflect on that a little, perhaps theres something else causing your problems?

 

Oh my, I am so joining this argument. Why do you think Ming while thinking of a girl is something that should be encouraged?

 

it's different for everyone, but basically when you start realising that your life is what you make it to be and you stop pitying yourself. That's when I'd say you see the changes.

 

Don't feel down, you did a great job so far, keep going. I know how hard it is to control the addiction when you are alone, I relapsed recently due to the same reason but you can always find something to do. Its a great opportunity for you now because you have loads of freetime. Try to learn something new, programming, learning a new language like french or playing an instrument, you can even pick a page and write a story or something. don't think about the output, for example decide to spend 1 hour a day on learning programming, another hour for learning french and so on. after a month you will be amused at how much these little chunks of time have produced, do not have any worries

 

10 days is a good start man! Just keep trying and take it one day at a time. You can do it man, you just have to create some new habits to support this lifestyle! Wish you good luck on your journey!

 

Well I wouldnt encourage it but its not abnormal for a 17 year old to masturbate every once and awhile and I think we must be careful to box it as a shameful act because its not. I think for a 17 year old boy to feel that amount of guilt and shame over an act that is completely natural (unless of course you're coming at this from a religious angle which Im not) is concerning. Look Davies dont get me wrong if your gut is telling you to stop then fair enough but please dont be too harsh on yourself if you masturbate from time to time. I have no right to tell you what does or doesnt cause your depression but I think your issues lie beyond the odd fap to a mental image of a girl.

 

I BELIEVE IN CELIBAY yay! I want full control over my body, if you wanna M sometimes, go ahead, as for me I want 100% CONTROL. I'm not satisfied with 70% or even 99%.

 

Hey manI'm 17 too. Iam a mess myself and it's allright man. Yes it's bad somedays where we don't sleep,we are out of energy,we are in pain and we just hate ourselves. But we can do this man. NEVER EVER GIVE UP. I made this mistake twice. I left nofap twice. Iam in a pretty bad state myself and was about to leave nofap. But I didn't. I learnt from my mistakes. And now I'm kinda okay. We can do this. Keep believing in yourself and keep saying no to every small urge that u get. Get busy doing something. Work-out. Exhaust yourself and eat healthy food. Trust me when I say this works. It worked for me when I went 28 days once. One good act propels you to do another one. So hang in there,DONOT leae nofap and Stay Strong.

 

yeah cool good luck with that, you'll be the first human in history to achieve it.

 

Next best thing to having a job, is preparing for it and make yourself needed, irreplaceable, e.g. make a new position for yourself (almost) from thin air.

Go read this book, it will give you HUGE (to say the least) advantage in your whole life from the day you read it on + it will keep your mind off Fap + there's a little sth written on sexual transmutation in there.

Good luck and congratulations to discovering this at only 17yrs of age, it's a huge advantage to do this ASAP. Many of us a have an 10+ yr porn overhead, it'd be a joy to discored this at your age
