    Hi guys,
    I make you a question: Could be the excess use of pornography related to incapability to express emotions?
    I think in my life I have never been able to express my emotiotions, but not only negative also positive. had I a success? So I PMO. had I a failure? SO PMO. am I bored? So PMO. So I have learned in these years to PMO as an answer to my feelings.
     
  2. Too much time in front of a screen will do that to you. There is nobody there so you become disconnected and your interactions with real people really suffer. You need to have real life connections meeting real people. If you spend all that time in isolation fapping off over people you are never going to meet, then of course its going to mess up your emotions none of it is real.

    You will just turn into a wall, unable to express yourself because you have forgotten how to. Simple solution. Just go out there and talk to random people, do loads of approaches every single day until it feels natural. Then your emotions will return again.

    Thankyou for your answer. It is reasonable what you say and I want to follow your advice. For long time I have lived in this fake world, I fell as an empty container. As you say I am in wall completely unable to interact with people but not because there is something strange in me but because I spend too much time in front of pc suppressing all emotions. Now I understand also because recovery is long, it takes time to learn to live again...thankyou very much , you let me reflect.

    To be fair it could at one point I became so emotionally numb I felt like a machine I didn't feel human I saw all these people around me people I call friends and I just would feel nothing now being 37 days clean Im growing attached in gettting feelings for people so yes porn and sitting in front of screen I feel just makes us emotionally void
