Hi I'm a 24M living in the USA. For years I've kinda known I masturbated too much and probably watched too much porn, but it wasn't until recently that I realized I have been using it not just to 'relieve depression' but to also hide from my anxiety. keeping myself in my room for hours, and avoiding conversations with potential sexual partners. I've also developed PIED and 'Death Grip'. The last time I was with a partner around 6 months ago it was a struggle to stay hard and I wasn't able to finish, and that wasn't the first time something like that has happened to me. Now the only time I stay hard is with myself and only while actively masturbating. All of this lead me to today, while hanging out with friends on their couch I found myself just looking at porn and reading sex stories for about 90 minutes. At the end of that time I realized just how unhealthy my urges have become. I'm now determined to start a 7 day 'Hard mode' challenge. Hopefully I will be able to stay strong and remain PMO free for longer.
