Hi everybody, I am glad to come by this site and people willing the better them selves, Rock on!! I am audio & video engeener (too be hehe) and I've been faping for quite some time now. Since when I was about 12-13 years old til now (21). Im very introspectial and I'm always looking for things get better at but last year I noticed that something was bloking me. Something was always making me feel bad no metter how good day I had and pulling me back into depression. So i searched searched and finally I got it! It was porn sucking all the enegry out of me! I've red many posts on this site and other forums aswell and I gave it a try. I succseded in no fapping for 5 days tops. Sometimes I felt better even from 2 days NoFap, the power is defenetely there! xD But the addiction or just a bad habit keeps me pulling. It may be the short period of NoFap but I sure did feel good changes and here are some of them: 1. First I was more confident and didn't care for was others think 2. Social depression was waaaay lower that before 3. I was more opened to my girl and I was able to feel the "game" 4. Sometimes I was very and I mean very energetic but that lowered as I relapsed 5. And over all I was just feeling much better, noticed my feelings coming back (some really good ones and some sadnes aswell, but I guess thats normal after years of blocking bad feelings). I've blocked and filtered porn sites with my acc and I get tempted sometimes to unblock them but I don't think thats the real barrier you make. Filters are just giving you time to get over temptation, the real barrier you make in your mind. I really want help myself to get my old confidennce back and too help out other guys awell. I'm glad that people are aweare of this, because personally I think this could cause serious problems and YES we are not going to let that happend! Cheers everybody!
Welcome fellow, I'm new here too. And as you say, my porn and masturbation addiction took me to a point where I didn't know who I was. Best of luck
Thank you man. Who knew that something so "good" is actualy so fatal to our personallity. I was stunned when I realised this. I've also came to a conclusion that I erase every thought about faping when it shows it self, because if I take a moment to think about it I always end up disapoiting myself. The other thing is to do some execises when I'm horny as hell to use that extra energy on something productive rather than going back to the same old story. I'm not sure will this work for everyone but its defenetlly worth a shot. Hope it helps
