    I haven't had a successful 30 day streak since late 2014. I know right? That's a long time! I've realized that a LOT of stressful events have happened last year including a near death experience, a car accident, and being hospitalized for a week. Even though I finished college, which is a good thing, I'm now dealing with NEW challenges. As of now it's too much. I don't know what to do.

    Life is clearly not getting any easier. Before these new life changes, my PMO streaks would easily exceed 30 days and I've done it several times. However, things are different. My streaks are not going the way I want them to. I'm also planning to move out, looking for a full time job, and so on. Should I just get a girlfriend or something? Most of my friends are in a relationship, especially my best friend. He ALWAYS wanted a gf, and now he has one. His life isn't any better, but he has someone in his life to support him, and hopefully help him deal with his PMO problems (I'm assuming).

    Maybe it's about time I should do the same. I mean....everybody including my best friend is encouraging me to get a gf. Others have been trying to hook me up, but I'm very hesitant because of negative past experiences. As of now, I just need some support for all this stress. Maybe a gf can help, I don't know. It helped my friend at least.

    Life is always gonna be stressful no matter what you do or who you have in your life. You could get a gf and see if it works. Practicing karazze helped many here dealing with this addiction. Meditation works best if you are ready to go through its process. Good luck!

    True! Life is always going to be stressful, it's how you handle it. Because of your past experiences which you state maybe you're becoming hesitant with women, if you really want a gf maybe you should take one step at a time (which is very helpful) looking back at these experiences maybe you can feel more comfortable or accepting of them if you challenge yourself by talking to a few girls your friends hook you up with. OR, you can not get a gf until you're ready (not saying you can't get one lol) You say you've been having a lot of stress lately which you clearly have (hospitalized, death experiences) those are really heavy things dude, what I would PERSONALLY do in this situation is take a break. You don't need a girlfriend to be happy (even though it helps) I would relax for a few weeks and do what you love(and stop putting pressure on yourself) and when you're ready;feeling generally happy, you can give it another shot and have more success and confidence with getting a girl.
