    Sup everybody.
    Today would have been my 8th day of nofap but I relapsed the past week. I watch porn and fap then I think fuck it, I've failed so I guess I'll watch porn for hours on end and cum multiple times. the porn I go to isnt nice either, it's usually humiliation or degredation stuff where I put myself in the mindset of the abusee. It's this weird link I have in my mind with shame and sex... mental anguish and sex. I think what am I doing right now, I'm intentionally hurting myself, I'm hurting my mind, I'm hurting my body. when I cum it doesnt feel good. I look at my body and I feel disgusted.
    I look at my tabs and I feel disgusted. I'm haunted by the imagery for days. I feel embarrassed around people. I feel anguish that I'm not 100 percent for the people who need me.
    I tell myself I'll start nofap this month or next month, or the start of the week. it will be a clean slate, the porn and fetishes aren't you. I told myself I'd start again yesterday. then hours into the day I broke and watched porn for 2 hours straight. I know I have to take responsibility and I know this is an addiction. I know I shouldnt feel shame or guilt but I do. I know I'm distracting myself from dealing with my life when I do this. I just blaaaahgh. I'm whining now.
    so my goal now is 90 days. I just want to say you guys that have completed this challenge are a huge inspiration, and I wont stop, because of you guys. this thing can be a motherfucker but we can do it. I'm looking for a partner too so if you sound like someone that relates to my experiences let me know. thanks everyone
     
  2. Hey man, keep at it. I've made several month-long breaks since starting a year ago, and just went through a horrible, terrible binge.

    I can tell you that not everybody is fully addicted to porn. I am confident that I am, because of how much I change when I'm off it. It's night and day. One particular thing I noticed is that I couldn't stop watching anal videos in the throes of this, and never even thought I would be attracted to the vagina, this caused me a lot of shame and made me feel weird. However, after about 2 months free, I noticed I started being attracted to the vagina more and was almost disgusted by thought of anal.

    My point is that you aren't defined by your PMO usage. In fact, once you start making it out far enough, you'll likely start losing those strange fetishes as your brain rewires to lower-stimulation, "regular" sex. Once I stopped feeling attracted to those weird fetishes that I thought I liked exclusively, I knew I was addicted, and could never go back.

    Keep it up!
