My major breakthrough

Discussion in 'Self Improvement' started by Deleted Account, Mar 20, 2020.

  1. Hi everyone my name is Leon and I'm severely addicted to pornography.

    This is my first post that I actually talk about myself and not just lurk on any social media sight not speaking my mind.


    There’s been a major break through in my recovery process.

    I've been doing NoFap for just over a year now, I've had my ups and downs (mostly downs) my highest streak is about 15 days, i know it sucks but this is the point of this thread.

    I have recently discovered a new horrible addicition, an addiction I subconsciously chose to ignore, an addiction no one sheds light on... just like pornography, an addiction that has been accepted as normal.... just like pornography, what is it you ask? Video games I know how it might sound, and I don't want to be a buzzkill but I think that's where I go wrong on my journey.
    for the past couple of years this has been my routine:

    Wakeup, work, play video games, relapse, sleep and so on

    Believe it or not this has been my regime for the past 6 years! and thats not even counting my school or college years!

    I've gained no social skills, have developed serve backproblems, social anxiety, self esteem issues, physical issues etc. (Evidence for video game addiction, pmo addiction)

    I'm running out of time, I feel my life slipping away from me, so many opportunity missed. I don't want this anymore I feel like I'm losing my mind, insainity in fact one day I fear I will just implode and I don't even what to imagine what that must feel like.

    So. This is it, I'm going to be making a very tough deicion, to delete all my video games on my computer and ps4 and hope that it changes something in my life.

    I will update my progress (hopefully) in a couple of weeks and let you guys know how I'm doing.

    Thanks for reading what I had to say, I don't want live like this anymore.

    Good first steps, thanks for sharing. I'd go one step further and get rid of the ps4, too. I'd download a couple of parental blockers for the pc, too. I recommend K9 and Qustodio.

    Ruminate on this. Is it actually a very tough decision? Or is it a very simple and easy one?
