My journey to reboot

Discussion in 'Rebooting - Porn Addiction Recovery' started by Deleted Account, Aug 17, 2022.

  1. Hi, I'm a 24 yrs old boy, being addicted on PMO for over 11 years now, I started at a very young age to watch porn, that shit fried my brain since then.
    I wasn't able to approach guys and hang out or have fun with them (I'm gay), nor to have friends, my life is full of unhappiness.
    This is a story of relapse, in January of this year I got circucised, passed almost 40 days doing nothing.
    I didn't know anything about NoFap or things like that, during that period I stopped watching porn and masturbating, GOD I rebooted without knowning it, my depression was gone, my days were all full of joy of living life, my PIED disapearred.
    But after that period, I stupidly went back to PMO and that destroyed my brain again, PIED appeared again very quickly, social and general anxiety kicked in again, all of those bad feeling again and again.
    So I decided to get myself on the straight line of my life, no more shit on me.
    I'm on day 6 of NoFap and no PMO, I gotta be honest with you guys, the first 3 days were so painful, bad headaches, insomnia, sadness.
    Today is the 7th day and I'm experiencing a lot of porn flashbacks or fantasies about friends or guys that I like and mood swings.
    My goal is to stay sober at least for 30days.
    I'm here to share my experience or journey, maybe in the next days I will post new updates, I'm planning a couple of things in my life to change it, getting a new job in another city and improve my social life.
    I need to grow up, I feel like I'm a stupid kid joking about his life.
