Hello everyone.I'm one of those long time chronic abusers that have apparently wrecked their brain.I haven't felt an honest emotion or cared about anything for a very,very long time.(I started at around 8 years of age or so,I'm pushing 40 now) The horrific level of 'brain fog' and loss of concentration have utterly destroyed my life from the bottom up and I am at the end of my rope here.To best describe it I would say it's like someone else is living my life(poorly) and am viewing from a distance,untouched by any of it.It's like seeing the World through a filter that obscures the fine details,and worst off all,it takes a great deal of effort to actually care enough to fix it.It's like being dead inside.If not for early memories of how things used to be,I believe I would have checked out years ago.Yeah it's that bad. I have been chasing symptoms and miracle cures for as long as I can remember to no avail.However I recently stumbled across a Tedx video that explored the relationship between masturbation and changes to the brain and BINGO!Sounds like me.Further research has led me here so I'm going to give abstinence a go for at least 90 days even if it kills me.Something has to change. Two days so far and no problems yet.
