    I was never really addicted to porn (at least that's what I thought). I fapped on average one time per day, and my "sessions" rarely lasted longer than 10 minutes. I was never into super weird stuff, and it never interfered with my "normal" life.

    That's what I thought. In reality, I often fapped as a way to avoid doing things that I had to, or because I was bored (so I wanted to see some excitement). I had severe delayed ejaculation during sex, and only orgasmed when I thought about porn scenes. I had no real interest in pursuing girls.

    So right now I feel the withdrawal symptoms of not watching porn: depression, lethargy, sinusitis (I wondered where I have that from and saw that it's also a withdrawal symptom), no libido (so flatline), anxiety, and wanting to isolate myself.

    So I know that it will get better, but I don't know when. So to those who also experienced withdrawal symptoms and have gotten over them, how does it feel like to be porn-free? I read that you feel a lot calmer, is this true?

    For me, it feels as if it takes work to achieve.

    Introspection, abstinence and most importantly getting involved in the community.

    Welcome to NoFap!

    I am a regular user here and nobody special.

    In some ways, there are three communities here.

    The forum posts
    The profile posts
    Private messages
    You've already found the forum posts.

    To find the profile posts click the Members link in the black bar. This will bring up a new blue bar below and one of the choices will be New Profile Posts. You can like, comment or ignore them as they fit your program of recovery.

    If you find a person you want to communicate with, you can send a private message to them. Sometimes they do not respond. Don't let that worry you, keep looking. The members and the literature are the community on here.

    Again, welcome.
