Intense Emotions

Discussion in 'Rebooting - Porn Addiction Recovery' started by Kamikaze_Aeroplane27, Mar 21, 2018.

  1. Okay, I didn't know where to put this, but I think I chose the best spot for it.

    Before jumping in, my life in general is a sucky one. I don't mean that in the stereotypical way either. I had cancer at 11, my mom was diagnosed with cancer when I was 12, and she died from it a week before my sixteenth birthday. (More details and such can be seen in my journal). Because of all this, I've used pmo in the past as a way of dealing with intense and complicated emotions. Now, I'm finally trying to break free, and these emotions sometimes become overwhelming leading to a relapse. pmo numbed me for so long, and now when I try to go without it, my emotions begin to snap into focus and it's hard to handle. Recently, that's been the cause of all my relapses.

    My Question: How do y'all deal with the sudden rush of emotions that come from quitting pmo? What are some practical applications I can do (and potentially others) to help deal with them?
