    As i was going through many posts here i realize lot of ppl are being succesful in there nofap cuz they seem to going going out a lot and interacting more with ppl.As for me i am stuck at home ,not by choice but out of necessity .I am preparing for a very serious exam in my life so i dont have the time to go outside at all for the next 3-4 months.Also even if i wanted to ,i dont have many friends here so no point either.So i was wondering is there anyone out there in a situation like mine .Cuz sitting home all day studying is making me depressed and making me want to watch P

    Yes bro, i am all day home.. rarely leave.. and it's hard.. just be patient and if you have any free time, choose other activities e.g working out, playing the guitar, cleaning the house etc
     
  3. I know what you mean in fact I face a similar situation. I recommend that you keep yourself very busy while stuck at home.
    When I am home alone, I study. I actually enjoy studying.
    There are many people in your situation. I am just one of many.

    I understand your situation. I have been studying for various exams over the past few months and the only times I go out is for the occasional dinner with my friends or for shopping. It does make you very frustrated. I would recommend you try to watch some good (clean) tv show or movie when you need to relax. Read books, try spending time with your family, help out around the house and don't stress yourself out too much.

    I'm not home all the time like your sitution but I'm home quite often.i can give you a recommendation that has seemed to help me. I go to SAA meetings that help tremdously, but I attend phone saa meetings way more and this really helps. It helps hearing about other people's struggles,and it breaks the cycle of me feeling Withdrawn even though I'm in my house.The calls are long distance, just to let you know. I use a calling app where I get minutes so I don't have to pay. If your Intrested I can send you the saa phone meeting list cause there's several phone meetings going on each day
    I'm

    Saa stands fro sex addicts anonymous. It's a 12 step program with people who deal with sex, addiction, porn addiction,escorts etc. it's like AA which stands for alcohol anonymous. Here's the link

    I have freedom to go out for a walk, any time I want, but now, I need to stay at home without a choice, only because it's been raining and thundering for weeks.

    And what I can do when I'm at home is listen to music, read books, play videogames, watch movies or shows(without sexual stuff), meditate, and workout.

    Can't tell you much, since I'm bad at giving advices. But give em a try without needing to feed the urge to pmo.
