    I feel hopeless and frustrated right now; I was staying up late, mindlessly binging degenerate filth last night and the night before and I ended up feeling ashamed of myself each and every time. I have never felt satisfied and proud of myself after watching disgusting rubbish. Ever.

    Normally, I am a sex-repulsed asexual but at the same time, I have the tendency to give in to my sexual desires almost every time I have an urge (usually 1 or two times a month) and this vicious cycle has been happening for over 1 1/2 years and I want to end this addiction forever and dedicate my heart to the NoFap lifestyle for the rest of my life.

    I am not going to wait until tomorrow to start the NoFap journey, I am going to start right now. There is no such thing as "one last time" when it comes to addiction. Why? Because all that would do is lead you down the rabbit hole and continue the vicious cycle of addiction. Trust me, I've been there before and I do not want to experience that feeling ever again.

    In conclusion:
    I want to end this addiction to porn and masturbation and dedicate my heart to start living the life of my dreams and becoming the greatest version of myself. I want to become a human BEING, not a human DOING. I want to eat to LIVE, not live to EAT because after all, you are what you eat and a human being feeds through their five senses.

    Feel free to share your advice on how to prevent relapsing and I will gladly read it.
     
  2. Im more of not believing the bullshit that “masturbation is perfectly normal”. Its like a damn drug. Once you try to quit look what happens, its like quitting cigarettes. Trust me, I quit both and really got my ass kicked by myself lol. One of the first things I did was asked why I had the urges and why I want to walk away from that mess. Then when I reflected on my feelings, I proceeded to ask why I had these feelings. When I was able to reflect on that, I kept asking why. Its all about letting the situation speak. I feel it is the true art of letting go. Its one thing to hear but another thing to actually listen to the situation.

    For example, one thing I found out with my urges is that I have an aspiration to be one of the best parent ever. I never knew thoughts like this drove me to PMO. But then I went backwards and discovered that, it changed my view.
     
  3. Scatman reference detected. Good on you.

    By the way, I support your desire to change, but I want to encourage you to not be motivated by shame, but by positivity. Good luck on the path.
