So it is my 6th day without PMO, the first 3 days were easier a bit but now it is harder and i am confused about what goal to aim for. I dont have sex partner and my aim was to recover my sex addiction ,I did that by deleting all my hookups apps and blocking porn websites. abstaining from all sexual activity is my purpose to be in control of my life,when i noticed that my addiction distracted me from studying and achieving things i wanted i got the will power to make a change ,but by now i am also distracted because i stopped satisfying myself and i cant concentrate again, got some testicular pain and agitation. It is really hard for me to manage the situation and i dont know what goal to choose, Im afraid to suffer from depression or anxiety if i abstain for too long from any sexual activity. I hope i will gain the power and the motivation again
hello welcome to nofap. very good u have started ur journey to stop PMO . lets help each other and ourself .
The first 2 weeks are terrible, but it gets easier after that. Keep in mind that depression and urges are temporary, they pass. Stay strong! it will be worth it.
These feelings are perfectly normal. This is how recovery goes. You must suffer to come out of this addiction. If you are ready to suffer temporarily, you will come out of this addiction and then you can live your life with fullest. Good luck!
