HELP ME! SOCIAL ANXIETY AND POM TRUTH?!

Discussion in 'New to NoFap' started by Deleted Account, Nov 25, 2018.

  1. Hi everyone,
    I hope you are all doing well but I have a problem that is destroying my life and it is my social anxiety. I am an 18 year old virgin who has never kissed a girl and I am honestly a great looking guy but I feel like no girls want me because im just so awkward. I seem to feel so socially awkward and nervous whenever im in a social situation. I overthink absolutely everything like even walking now at this point and its gotten ridiculous to where now its hard for me to say "here" for attendance at school, I cant look at people in the eye really, etc. I have been masturbating pretty much every day for a year or longer but I just dont see giving up PMO curing my social anxiety and making all those problems go away into a confident person. It is honestly just really sad for me because social anxiety pretty much ruined my life and its a disaster trying to talk to strangers both male and female especially women. ALSO, could someone tell me what a "relapse" truly means because ive been doing nofap for 20 days now and I havent orgasmed but I would sometimes catch myself touching my dick or watching a porn vid but only for like 30 seconds. The thing is also is I havent noticed any changes that I can clearly notice really so can someone also tell me the exact rules to this stuff and what is and isn't okay. If someone could PLEASE answer all my questions ESPECIALLY THE SOCIAL ANXIETY aspect it would mean SOOO MUCH. Thank you all.

    Best way to do NoFap for best benefits is HardMode:

    HardMode = No PMO. No Porn. No Masturbation. No Orgasm. Not even glimpses or edging (fapping but not ejaculating)

    Do this for 90 days and you will 110% notice a huge difference.

    Just watch this youtube video:



    Good luck bro!

    Probably you need a good therapy. Social anxiety could be a cause of your addiction, but if you quit pmo, you may have still problems with relationships and social skills. It's a big psychological trouble. I have social anxiety too and I have a therapy and drugs (SSRI). It helps me. I have 21 yo, only one friend, I have never been on any party... I have never had a boyfriend or even kissed a boy too... I understand you, it's realy horrible, it's a huge pain... Sorry for my English, I don't speak very well in this language.
     
  4. Appreciate the reply, would you be able to answer as to why PMO would help with social anxiety? I just can’t seem to understand it. Thanks.

    Social Anxiety is difficult. When I actually stick to an excercise routine I feel much more confident when talking to others. Maybe this will help you to.

    Before this streak I was hella depressed and suicidal even. I was abusing drugs and PMOing non stop everyday for like 3 months.
    I reached a breaking point and I made a 100% commitment to NoFap.
    I am now on 16 days+ and it is my best streak in over 2 years!!!

    Some benefits I already noticed:
    - More energy: better at the gym can lift heavier than usual, energetic to do new things etc
    - Increased confidence: easier to talk to people, you feel better about yourself, better self esteem.
    - Decreased social anxiety: I don't feel the need to please people, I feel like I can be myself with anyone.
    - Decresed overthinking
    - Better focus

    And a bunch of others. It is only day 16! The first 2 weeks you will get these usually cuz of increased testosterone.
    Once you reach days 30,60 and 90 that is next level.

    What everyone else has said. But dont worry. 18 is still young, sounds patronising I know, but I was the same. First girlfriend at 21.
