Discussion in 'Porn Addiction' started by Victimofcircumstamce9977, Oct 12, 2020.

  1. I check this site almost everyday to help reconcile my own issues im faced with pertaining to this unfortunate situation. I posted my story a few weeks ago called porn ruined my life no shocker there lol, and Im still struggling with being comfortable living in my own skin, i still let the dirty perverted things i did in the past effect my mood and how i feel about myself overall. Just battling shame and guilt constantly right now. Sometimes those thoughts dont pop in when im being consistent with good things and working or doing something righteously and i can go about my day or night, but when they show up, and its frequent, its not a good feeling. Its like i still cant believe i went and saw a ts escort is whats killing me the most. And i knew how bad my addiction to pmo was and i still let it get the best of me fuck man. If theres any moment i wish i can take back itd be that moment when i was in my car and my heart and soul was telling me dont do this but the damn chemical imbalance in my brain pushed me to it anyway. I needed to “release.” Smh. The whole time I knew it was wrong, and I knew I’d regret it! To anyone reading this struggling with pmo, take it from me. I thought I had it figured out, i knew all the ins and outs of the habit and how it was effecting different parts of my life, yet it still helped force me into doing something i never thought in a million years id do. Then again , im no stranger to strange, reluctant, not really at all wanting to do a sexual act being molested as a young boy and being introduced to this sickness and what not but, it is what it is. Porn made it much worse than if i was just molested. Being exposed to porn on the web makes for a bad combination if you were abused as a kid. And in general even if you werent molested, its still molesting your mind if your a young kid looking at the shit we see on there. Fuck pornography and its billions of corporate dollars it generates and is pushed out and marketed by to make kids addicts to it. But im tryna continue moving forward thank you to whoever read i really appreciate it ❤️

    You were molested as a kid thats bad the people who did that to you should get their balls cutt off and get feed to the wild boars , they will suffer for what they did to you believe it or not , their day will come !
    But that wasnt your fault, you were a kid , couldnt do much, so dont hate yourself because of that .
    About escorts , its a bad move but ...you didnt got stds , alot of people go to escorts, its not healthy but still it could had been worst
    Ts escort....if you didnt liked it is a good signal
    And you can still have a good life if you putt in the pass the bad moves you did , because the pass is pass you cant change it , what you can change is the future and the present so dont compromise them because of a thing that is done and it cant be change, move forward do nofap and have a better life and love yourself

    You your mad if you have anger use it on a productive way to show that you can overcome wha was done in the pass , use that hate into a mobilizing positive energy
     
  3. Appreciate your words man thank you im gonna try my best im not gonna give up and let myself be miserable the rest of my life. In due time maybe itll all get better.
     
  4. And you know what man, at one point all i wanted was for revenge or vengeance to be shed upon them if you will and i still do its just not as prevalent a thought as before. Now i wonder if holding on to that is more of a detriment than not.

  5. You keep trying Brother. You’re young and have a better chance of keeping porn in check in your life. I wish you all the best success.

    Are you engaged with counselling or therapy for being a victim of sexual abuse? If so, good on you. If not, I would recommend it to help you.
     
  6. I should be talking to someone i met on here this week that is sorta like that i guess an accountability partner? So yeah im taking steps toward that surprisingly. Its hard to go through this alone. Thank you for your words

  7. Hey man, great to hear you’re connected with someone to talk things through. It’s a brave thing to reach out for help. Thing is, there’s so much help around these days. You (and I) may feel we’re alone but we really aren’t. We might be on our own but we’re not alone. I’m really grateful for NoFap and how it’s helped to support me through. And I’ve met some really great people on here. You keep at it brother, it works if you work at it. And remember, you’re worthy of help.

    I was molested as a kid too and this led to all kinds of fucked up shit. I had HOCD and tabboo porn addictions. I was struggling really badly for the past couple of weeks. Last year I did a 133 day streak. I can't wait to get back on track. I would recommend Elisha Long's Youtube channel or anything by Gold Jacket Luke. You're fine man. I know how it feels to struggle with daily shame and guilt but you're not alone. So many men are going through the same thing if not even worse. Stay strong.

    @Victimofcircumstamce9977 Been there, seen it, done it my friend. Was the abuse a catalyst to allowing myself to view porn at a ridiculously young age and use it and rely on it for the next 30 years of my life? I still don't know the answer to that. I have come through some incredibly helpful counselling which can't delete my childhood memories but did a fantastic job of spring cleaning my brain and compartmentalising my experiences into what I need and what I can tuck away and attempt to ignore.
    So now is phase two for me which is in some sense even more of a daunting challenge. I now have to attempt to undo 30 plus years of hard-wiring that has connected my life to PMO abuse. I don't want to waste any more of my time here sitting alone jerking off to pixels on a computer screen. It's a very sad and lonely image that I no longer wish to conform to.
    I'm struggling to get a meaningful run together of abstinence from pornography but I really would like to get to where you are in the high 20s if I possibly can. I think I need to work harder at persuading myself that what I want to do is achievable.
    Best of luck.
     
  10. Its a sickness that i will get rid of permanently. I turn 20 in a couple days and I’m making a promise to myself not to let myself or my family down again by feeding that “demon.” Its taken away a huge chunk of my childhood already and Im gonna take back control of whats mine. I recently because of all this nonsense and how it effected me, threw away a potentially good and healthy relationship with a really sweet kind and pretty girl who was really into me. I wont let that happen again. I wont let what this thing is impact and effect my personal life and what surrounds me anymore. The only thing keeping me sane about the whole ts thing that happened with me not to long ago is Richard Pryor and the stories with him lol. I gotta keep reminding myself theres much worse that could’ve been done and that does happen to people all over the world, unfortunately, and so i gotta find a way to be grateful amidst all this turmoil. Gotta learn to let go of the past and not have it define me so damn much. I know its simple and I understand why that needs to happen and be that way but jesus i still give the past to much power. I know it must be because im not far away removed from those sick experiences. The amount of time and money i spent on pmo and recent money on a handful of escorts was the bulk of my time the last 4-6 years or so. So of course i still feel like shit today. I need to readjust and redefine myself. I need to change course and walk on a different path of righteousness towards peace and enlightenment. Thats the only way i can negate the mistakes ive made in the past by taking actions that are of value and of meaning instead of the perverted acts that have hacked its way into my decoding process since i was just a young kid. Its all uphill from here.

    Yes. I turned 50 last week and it was only recently that I worked out that just because I was treated like shit as a child, actually that doesn’t make me shit. I’ve had so many failed relationships primarily because I felt I wasn’t a good enough person to deserve any happiness. I was wrong and thank god I married a wonderful woman last year who knows all about my past experiences. I owe it to her to dump this porn thing once and for all. Small steps, tomorrow I hope to get my 1st day of the rest of my porn free life underway. You’ll do it, you’ve made a fabulous start and you have time and your side. Don’t rush it, take some time to love yourself and once you do, others will love you and you will allow them to love you too.
     
  12. I appreciate your words very much sir thank you for that Also you being 50 im sure you can clearly see the advancements porn has gotten since 20-30 years ago and how now kids basically are set up from the start to get this depleting habit. Its not natural. I understand completely what your saying and im done with it, the only reason i go back up to this point is only because of the chemical imbalance, the “need” to do it. As of late i havent even enjoyed the moments im in it cuz i just feel stupid and guilty the whole time then after obviously, worse. Again thanks man reading the replys on here really helps, yours did. Your a badass and a GREAT person and keep rocking on! Best spirits on all your pursuits.
