Glad you're here fighting through it FSP, keep up the good work man! It'll get easier when you put some distance between where you are and the last time you PMOd.

Yeah, I hear ya georgebou7. It's hard to accomplish your goals when you're feeling down. But on the bright side you're making some big leaps forward with laying down a healthier foundation to work from. You're doing the hard work of looking at yourself deeper and trying to get to the root of the problem which is great! It can be difficult to control areas of your life when you're not in a good mood; believe me I know. I've been working my way through some heavy heartache over the last 6 month from a breakup and at the same time working on regaining control of my life. In that time I've managed to quit smoking, eat nutritionally, and exercise regularly as well as hit some pretty good nofap streaks. My advice is to work on taking care of your body as best you can because successes tend to snowball from there. One success leads to another and your mood follows with it. Once feeling pretty good becomes the new norm, a lot of doors open up as far as what's possible to accomplish. You're right that it's easier to talk a big game than it is to follow through, so work on your follow through skills first. Start small. Make a goal to do some laundry or wash the dishes, then do it. Check it off the list. Then make a goal to do two things and then do them both. Maybe it sounds overly simple but it works. You start your successes really small, and you train yourself to feel the experience of accomplishment in very easy to manage bites. Then you move up to a slightly loftier goal, rearrange the book case, wash and detail the car, whatever. Then you follow through with that. Eventually (and much sooner than you might expect) you start to break out of negative habit patterns because you're creating a new normal where your word is law. When you say you're going to do something, you do it. Now you're not just talking a big game, you're on the path. You're dealing with some power because you know when you say you're going to do something, it gets done. Eat healthier because it's good for your body and your mind. It puts you in a better mood in the long-term. Give yourself some daily exercise, even if it's just walking for 15-20 minutes a day. Challenge yourself to make some improvements in your life. But start small, really small, and work your way up. The point of all this is to get yourself healthier so you're feeling better but also to build your follow-through skills at the same time.

Thank you for these nice words and advice. And first of all congratulations on you big changes, you managed so many accomplishments and its praiseworthy. I agree a lot with your strategy and i try this way. I am not anymore at Instagram because i i thought it disturbs me and lose my concentration, i am taking cold showers and a few more changes in my life. I do many things during my day (working out, studying, walks with friends) so my deeper reason is like anxiety and not exactly boredom. With boredom i mean more that everyday seems the same to me. Its like there is a missing part. I dont know what. Maybe i stick on the thought that i am 23 virgin and impossible to find girlfriend. I am very bad at approaching girls. Or maybe because although i am a good student i dont know what i want to do in the future. My self esteem is bottom low. I will keep trying nofap of course. 1 year ago i was constantly depressed so i see big improvements. But now with such a low self esteem honestly i dont believe that there is space for general self improvement. All because i am bad at fundamental things of life. I want just to continue trying so i keep my mind active with something and dont lose my mind.

Sorry for this negativity guys but its what i really feel. Even so i keep trying, i won't give up but I don't expect miracles.

This is great advice. Starting with small goals helps us gain confidence in our ability to control our own outcomes. The first few days are hard to break out of that negative cycle. But as you start small and start accomplishing your goals, you enter a positive cycle that builds you up instead of tearing you down.

Life is teaching me great lessons. Negative feelings are great lesson. Negative feelings make me conscious of what negative i have caused to other in this or former life. When i become aware and conscious of that I transform negative into beautiful,
I am gracious that existence make this life for me to learn about my imperfections.
Beautiful things are coming to me.

Lately I have had a few doubts come into my mind about being able to overcome MO. I think I need to develop a more positive outlook. I need to be able to picture my life without MO. What would it look like? I would be in total control of my sexuality. I would not have to sink back into the negative spiral again. I could keep a patient temperament. I need to look forward to those benefits. My grandfather used to say that “if you don’t have dreams, they’ll never come true”. I think that the power of hope is real. If we can visualize success, we can eventually achieve success. If we think that it’s impossible, it will become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
