Is it possible to overcome PMO addiction in 4 months, if I did PMO for only 2 years?

    Next year I'm going to a new school, I want to be be in a great mood, etc. Or at least, I really do not wanna have a flatline. So is it possible? Of course it is. But how? What should I do?

    I believe that after 4 months you won't be in a flatline anymore, regardless of how long you PMO'd. 2 years is indeed quite short compared to the average "addiction duration" you will find on this site and 4 months could be enough to cure the side effects, but you will want to continue your porn abstinence nevertheless to not evoke your addiction again.

    Abstain, of course. And apart from that the magic formula is: Replace bad habits by good habits. It works. Be productive, creative, sportive, keep your room tidy, be social, do whatever you aim for. That way you will fill the hole inside yourself in a healthier way than by using PMO.

    Thanks! :)
    I'm 14 years old by the way, that's why I PMOed only for 2 years. Well, my goal is forever and not 90 days - it's somehow not motivating me. The only thing I really dislike about the reboot process is the flatline period. I'm quite sad or very calm at these days, and I am simply okay alone. Here comes the problem, that I want to socialise, and I am quite extaverted, too, but in this flatline periode, I just don't have the mood to interact with new people (but my [small] social anxiety have gone away), which could be bad in a new school...

    I am sure that once you have established new routines and "the new you" stabilizes, you will feel comfortable in your skin again and be the social person that you are at heart. Moreover, even if you have flatline until the day before you start at the new school, the actual start will probably shoot enough adrenaline through your veins so to make it all work out.
