This has to stop. Help me!

You can check out yourbrainonporn.com and use the images of you being in the moment with your friends and fily and also waiting on your wife as motivation to stop PMO. Keep yourself pure for your future wife.

 

Realize how young,dumb and full of **** you are at 25 years of age. Then imagine how absolutely terrific you will feel after a long period of time of not jerking off will be !! There is no way it will not change you in some way. By the way, I don't think you are dumb. Just an old saying I use to hear.
Put a rubberband on your wrist; snap it hard when urged. Purchase alot of rubber bands. Don't look at naked ladies and minimize the time with the dick in the hands. Wish I knew to battle it at 25yrs old. You can be an outstanding individual in 3-5 months. I'm sure you'll have to fight extreme horniness. Learn to accept it. I've been at it since Dec 2013. No joke, it is hard but so rewarding too. Most people that hang here that long will eventually meet their individual requirements. PMO is a complete waste.

 

Hey bro. I'm 24 and I've tried to stop since I was around 15. I was introduced to PMO during sexual abuse in elementary school . I was literally taught how to PMO by the abuser before I could orgasm or ejaculate. In a sense, my sexuality and my brain were not "rewired" by PMO. Rather PMO "wired" it that way. I have struggled. I have cried. Been depressed. Felt underaccomplished. And Hated myself.

Two weeks ago, I told my closest friend about all my struggles. He was very supportive. We're both Christians and our faith in God has really helped me. Today is Day 15 for me and I am more determined than ever. Like you I've thought about my future wife. I want to be the best husband I can be to her but it is really up to me. I CREATE THE ME TOMORROW.

Take some drastic practical steps:
- Delete all your porn stash
- Deactivate your social networks that could tempt you
- With the above two done, you'll need new hobbies to fill all the spare time and help you reach the chemical highs in your brain previously induced by PMO.
- Tell a loved one you trust.

I'm just beginning my journey but mahn I feel soo good and I know I will become the man, husband and father that God wants me to be. I am a Champion!

You can do this. You're a Man! God's got a bright future for you and that future starts now.


p.s. let me know if you want an accountibility partner

 

This is a copy of my post a few days back. Hope it helps.

1. Diversion tactics work best for me. When I am in temptation the worst thing I can do is expect to overcome the temptation by sheer willpower. I had more success when I would do something I enjoy in the meantime. Sometimes that is singing, then it is running or physical labour, I might go on a visit or read a good book or watch a good film. Learning and other intellectual activities are normally out of the question.
2. My wife and quite a few friends know about my addiction. While I always thought I would get judged I always found compassion and often the same struggle. NoFap is helpful, but real life relationships where you can be open about your problems are indispensable.
3. Naltrexone is a drug that relieves the craving in different addictions. Sex addiction is one of its uses. I haven't resorted to that yet, but I might in near future.

I don't know how far you're into the battle. There are many other strategies. I hope you find some of the suggestions helpful.

 

Some good suggestions here. The main thing is to get some self-knowledge - yourbrainonporn.com + 3-circle exercise etc - and formulate a plan. Check out my signature for some start suggestions.

We have freedom of choice so permanent change is possible.

One day at a time.

Strength!

I have been addicted much longer than you and have recently celebrated my 150th day without PMO.
First off you must realize that your addiction is porn everything else is secondary. The only way to rid yourself of this addiction is to STARVE it.
I noticed from your post that you are soon to be married. I got married because I thought it would cure me of the porn addiction. It did not and I continued to PMO and eventually failed in my marriage. Have you thought of seeking the help of a professional? It helped me in that I discovered a good part of my problem was related to depression. Medication and determination to starve the porn has worked.
Think of how good you feel when you wake up the next morning realizing the last day was PMO free and how terrible you feel when you give into temptation.
I hope this was helpful. Please stay in touch if you think hearing more will help.

 

I m 19 and I m dedicated to stop this fucking useless brainwashing thing.Things will be more different from now on and I think if we post our daily obstacles here we can do it more easily and motivated

 

Good for you! Remember the problem is porn. Stay away from form of it and find other activities to be of interest to you. Take one day at a time and you will find it easier as time goes by. i know to well how difficult this effort is and will be here to answer any questions you have. I promise you that if you do not stop this habit your life will continually be burdened with failed relationsips and a guilt ridden mind. Please search for a professinal counselor.
Good luck!

 

Bro I m so happy that you can help me.yeah I'm not motivated enough maybe but dedicated to stop this bullshit because it steals all my precious energy and also my social intelligence.it is unbelievably important to have fellows like you to stop these garbages.I m gonna post here daily and if you mind thathat would be avesome.

 

Try this, and apply it to porn. It can also help you with other difficulties/addictions that may present themselves throughout your life.
