Can a porn addict be successful ?

Discussion in 'Porn Addiction' started by Deleted Account, Oct 16, 2019.

  1. Why not you can have high paying job or be entrepreneur and spend your time home watching porn. I think many people can keep their addiction outside of work. Porn addiction does not mean either that you have to be spending a lot of money on it. Same way you can be addicted to a drug and still be functioning drug addict while earning money but it will sooner or later bleed in and become more serious.

    For many people their addiction is their private type of thing and without knowing them personally you would not even tell that they are addicted.

    Hello there. Yes this is the matter I am about. To me, a normal dose of pornography can be justified as one of the friends told above. But the point is, whether you exceed it or not. I wholly understand your state, yet, I do not believe that a deep pornography addict can be a success in any way. Because an intense use of porn means you have already spent most of your time with it. I mean, you just wasted it. And in terms of psychology, It has so many negative impacts such as disabling the willpower or weakening it. As a pornography addict, I certainly believe from my experiences that it has always had negative effects on my daily routines, my desire for a better life. Pornography is a poison to everything in your life.

  3. Yes, I agree with you. You can't work to succeed If you are masturbating 1-3 times a day.

    I had some problems with confidence and social skills before I started NOFAP, but you said that it effects your desire for a better life, I don't know but I didn't experience that, it maybe did but I don't think so. What are the negative effects that pornography did to your desire for a better life?

    I remember Kanye West saying he was a porn addict and he's successful... Well sort of.

    I mean it debilitates me, I feel like that. You know that pornography is not anything you do only by using your eyes, when it contains masturbation with it, causes a lack of passion to go on with your daily routines. I mean I feel like a monster after hooking up with the explicit stuff mastutbating for hours and you do not even realize that it has been for hours that you ingulged in it. I do not feel like that I wish to have even a brief talk with someone I could come across, just feel disgusted. It takes all the positive energy, the energy that I ought to canalise for a better life, I mean, instead of finding a real love, girl it just puts you into a state that you are not even able to have the desire to grab a girlfriend. I hope you understand my point.
