    few years ago, i had high energy, big goals, very positive attitude towards life.
    i know what to do with my life. i tried but kept failing, that made me depressed. porn and media(youtube,movies,tv shows) became my distraction.

    everyday became same. i didnt work toward my goals. free times are spent mindlessly online. i got used to this.
    i am still depressed...but this new year i made a resolution to avoid negative self talk. i decided to not think about any of my negative feelings.

    i decide to not watch youtube/Movies/Tv shows.

    there is some improvements. i unsubbed from depression subreddit.

    i used to browse those negative subreddits every single day. its hard..but to this day i avoided all those negative dark places.


    stopped binging videos and other media except porn.


    so far i fapped three times in first month. i just cant control this.

    because of this porn addiction. i have low energy levels.

    if i wanted to do something productive, i suddenly lose energy. its kind of hard to explain.

    i know this doesnt make sense.. but thats just how i feel. maybe the fear of failure is the reason why i am easily distracted or just lose energy level.

    by losing energy level i mean i just want to sleep forever. i dont feel like doing anything. its either porn or sleep.

    yes i do feel like opening youtube or netflix but i am pushing myself to not waste another year. i can control this. porn is the problem.

    Hey man, good job of on your own cutting down on media that just numbs you - old stuff that you know you need to quit to make way for new things. I was in a space where it was also porn or sleep. I was sleep deprived. The more you get adequate sleep, the more aware you’ll be. Pros/Cons as you’ll be more mindful of all the good and bad, but it’s a fire you’ll need to walk through to keep bringing on change to your life.
     
  5. Welcome to NoFap! You're among friends who are in this journey with you! I totally understand what you mean about wanting to sleep forever. I felt that way last night after work and ended up having to reset because of MO'ing. Don't worry it can get better! That sleepiness is sluggishness in our brain because of the chemical imbalance. This can be fixed for the most part. A little jumpstart in the morning with a 7-minute exercise app on my phone has helped me tremendously. It is difficult, because our body does not enjoy forcing itself to be active especially after a sexual orgasm. The app I use doesn't have half-naked women on it.

    This won't take care of the sexual problem but it can help!
