Addictions beside P anyone?

@TakingTheSteps
It's a start! Do you know when this addiction started and when you noticed it?
Do you get the shakes when you go without one? If you don't mind me asking that is

 

I've pretty much always drank quite a bit of soda, so I'm not sure. I only really noticed it when I tried to stop drinking it and realized it was way more difficult than it should have been for me to not have it.

I actually, surprisingly, don't seem to have any adverse reactions to not having it. No headaches or shakes. I might sometimes get a little tired from the lack of caffeine, but even that isn't a very strong reaction. So I'm not sure it is technically an "addiction," I just know it is really hard for me to stop drinking it. Probably just because I enjoy it and I lack motivation and drive to stick to things that make me uncomfortable. I'm working on that!

 

Yeah, man, like you and @King Carlsen said: YouTube! So much time waiting to be wasted browsing and subscribing and discovering. I think it's the novelty.

also: Doritos
(How is it possible no one has yet mentioned the mighty Doritos??)

 

i'm addicted to lot of other things besides PMO. PMO has changed my life or may be it payed the way for other bad habits like Binge Eatings / Wasting time on Internet / Binge watching TV.....

 

Cigarettes, YouTube, Procrastinating, Excessive Internet use, binge eating. All addictions of mine but the hardest to beat is PMO.
I guess I have an addictive personality, so move from one habit to the other.

 

Oh, yes. Definitely that, too!

 

Cigs (dont smoke anymore!), and addicted to codeine for about 6 months.. fun at the time but turned me into a dummie lol. No energy for PMO tho hahhahahah.

 

Video games but no longer addicted to obsessive playing online games, so now it's only PMO.

 

I struggled with my childhood as well. A lot of times my father would beat my mumma. She asked us to remain quite , me and my sister were quite young like 3 or 4 years old. She also yelled on us later for never doing anything for her and for remaining silent. Her family members also did accuse us for the mistreartment to my mother ..just to get rid of their guilt of doing nothing.

At first I didn't even realise these things affected me. My mother would beat me and my sister a lot of times out of frustration and misery but still continued with dad.

Jokingly now they are still together...my mother started to have feelings for her boss who turned out to be complete asshole. Now my father feels a lot of shame so as to why he can't control mom.

While my mother continues to be a complete narcissist to me my sister and a younger brother . We all had really bad experience in family
I started to masturbate and watch porn almost regularly ...one time even in public train...I was so damn frustrated wanted to end my life. Cause I hated myself so much . It was like from the childhood I was all discipline and no non sense girl.

One who asked everybody to refrain from making boyfriends in class10 also...was now addicted to porn.mo and YouTube..
I couldn't tell it to anybody out of dear of disappointing everyone.

Overeating till death has been my childhood addiction.
When I was 6 my cousin sisters would make me play a game where we would touch each other at weird places and kiss and all that cringee .

That led to me being fascinated by my body, I get attracted to both men and women body and I have a very high urge...it's damn frustrating

I have done only 5 days of nofap it feels a like a year I have urgent urge of watching po and masturbate ..

But I'm holding myself..I'll get over my addictions and emerge as a really strong person in my life

I want to live my life with absolute fredom and pece with my self.

I just want to say, I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that. I'm sure you know this now, but your father's abuse toward your mother was nobody's fault but his. Even if your mother hadn't asked you to stay silent about it, it still wouldn't be your fault or your responsibility to have fixed that situation. You were a child. That was not your job.

 

@TakingTheSteps. I learned it the hard way . Thankyou for telling these kind words to me ..they mean a lot .

 

I have an addiction to porn and marijuana. The porn I can't really go without it for more than two weeks. I start feeling huge discomfort in my genitals from not releasing but that's probably withdrawal symptoms that go away (I hope).

The marijuana is another one. I use marijuana as a creative outlet for my illustrations and my creative writing and it works but I wonder what my creativity would be without it. Weed is actually legal where I'm from and you can smoke it anywhere, hell I even get it delivered to me. I will think about quitting it when it stops me from getting job (no regular job drug tests because its legal) I was think of quitting once I get my CDL because you need to be clean while operating heavy machinery. It is an expensive habit so I might let it go in the future.

Porn is the big one for me I've been addicted since I was 6, which was really early. Hopefully I can quit porn for good one day, as it is the most detrimental to my mental health.

 

A little over a year ago I quit drinking since I realized I'd developed a dependency on it. Not full-blown alcoholism maybe, but very possibly heading that way. Giving up my long-term PMO addiction has surprisingly to me turned out to be much more difficult.

 

I've tiptoed close to alcoholism in the past, and that and PMO very much go hand-in-hand.

 

I'm addicted to being addicted

 

P is a gateway to M and a host of addictions. For me it started with P and M then went onto gambling and then also sex addiction.
