Addiction

secretSummer8749 May 27th, 2021

I started watching porn when i was 12 yrs old. In early years before I turned 18 i watched porn moderately but as i turned 18 i got my own smartphone with internet and after that there is no going back. I became addicted to porn and masturbation. The addiction has took over me so much that I'm now experiencing hair fall, hair greying, low immunity, anxiety, depression, guilt, fatigue, low self esteem, objectifying women, etc. Im 21 years old now and due to this addiction i can't even focus on my studies and I feel so shameful because I used to be my class topper and now I'm failing in exams. Please I need someone who can genuinely help me

To quit masturbation, you need to quit porn first.

Brother I can totally relate to you.I am also 21 year old.Porn destroyed 7 years of life.It destroyed my perception of women & I made me see them as sex objects.I would recommend you the following 1.Check the website of nofap & also join the nofap community(It is basically a committe of people getting to get rid of porn addiction.Try nofap hard mode once(No porn,no masturbation,no orgasm).I have done it for monre than 90+ days.Yes,you will have some withdrawal symptoms while doing it & it is very hard to do but it is worth doing.(telling from my own experience).You can also watch videos of people doing nofap.Not only men there are some women also who have been addicted to porn you can check videos of women such as Kasumikriss & Aahana who have tried nofap & have shared their story on youtube 2.you can also read stories of people on nofap on reddit website. 3.try to replace porn habits with good habits like exercising or going to gym,meditation,socialising etc during your process of recovering from porn. 4.you can check Gary wilson’s tedtalk video with the title “The great porn experiment” to understand how porn damages your brain & life.you can also watch Dr Trish leigh’s videos about nofap & porn addiction.

Yeah watching Dr. Trish's videos really showed me how much more damage it was causing in my life.

I am going through the same situation right now…. Have been trying to quit it but I can’t …. I used to be a class topper and now I’m barely getting pass marks….. porn and procrastination have affected me that badly…it’s been three years since I became an addict and I can’t still quit porn and get over procrastination either 😢

@secretSummer8749 I totally get you and I'm going through something similar atm. I went porn free for 3 months and they were the happiest months of my life. But I got tempted because I thought I wouldnt get addicted again and here I am, trying to quit every week but my impulsiveness keeps winning. It makes me feel so ashamed and I feel like I can't talk with anyone that i know about it. I also share some of the stuff that you are experiencing so know that you are not alone and that we'll go through this.

@tallSugar3657 I'm on this too, I have been *** for 4 years now, I always promise myself that I wouldn't do it again but at the end of the day I go back doing it, it's really sad and disappointing

I have the same problem, and I find when I have time on my hands I go back to it. It still happens to this day with me.
