    Hey guys, important point right here- Think/ imagine your addiction is as a lion, every time you feed it, it will get stronger, every time you don't it will get weaker, imagine then if you don't feed it for long enough what will happen to it? It will die.

    Of course its not gonna be easy as your lion will put up a fight, but the longer you last the easier it gets. Until eventually you reach a point where its easier to make him starve than to feed him.

    This is the same for all addictions, by the way hi I'm Dave I'm new here, I've just turned 18 and i wanna quit PMO!

    Welcome Dave, im also new to this. I have been addicted to this shit for a long time since i was 10 years old. Unfortunatley i have been feeding this lion allot the past year, 20-30 times per week and im trying to cut it down and quit this addiction once for all. it has caused me allot of problems. but together, we can beat this for sure!

    17, soon to be 18. have you noticed any differences in your life? depression, anxiety attack, fatigue, irritation/angry, thinning hair, afraid of meeting new people. Im afraid that masturbation have caused all these problems for me.

    Yes definitely! dude i didn't realise at first that it was because of to much PMO, i thought it was just the way i was, and I've definitely realised now... like I'm sorta on the verge of developing a stutter, like sometimes when i speak to popular people in my school i get a bit nervous, unless I'm doing something like playing football then i feel normal, in talking to them. It seems like its getting worse but I'm not sure if its because of the PMO or the drugs i used to do... do you do any drugs? and mix them with porn?

    Yes, i have the same problem. No, I dont use any drugs. i think most of my problems are because of Masturbation.
     
  7. Hello man. I liked your comparison of the problem with hungry lion.. and I agree that masturbation causes many problems of which you have mentioned the obvious ones..more subtle problems that happen to me are that it has taken away my sexuality..hijacked it and destroyed the concept of my emotions altogether.. I don't appreciate opposite gender as much as i used to just because it caused such a desensitization inside of me.
    there are many problems that it causes and it seems that only we are talking about it openly..I hope that other people around the world start to talk about the issue because it is a general problem concerning everyone..btw five days ago I turned 20
