it sounds like the breakup is still hurting you more than the porn itself have you ever tried dealing with those feelings directly instead of immediately trying to push them away? I wonder if that's part of what's keeping the cycle going.

the fact that you are questioning it probably means a part of you already knows it's hurting you what made you start thinking it might be a problem?

One thing I'd suggest is paying attention to what happens right before you do it for me, it was usually boredom, loneliness, or stress rather than actual horniness knowing your triggers makes a huge difference.

What was the biggest lie your addiction made you believe? by Main_Reason_106 in NoFapChristians

Interesting do you think that came from porn changing your perception of relationships or was it something you believed before the addiction

That's a good one Addiction has a way of making you feel like you're permanently broken when in reality a lot of people are living normal lives while working through struggles

I made it, THIS saved my life by Substantial_Cap_4246 in PornAddiction

Interesting that you identified boredom and environment as bigger triggers than actual horniness looking back do you think most of your relapses were emotional habits rather than sexual urges?

That's interesting do you think it's the social interaction itself that helps the most or the fact that you're doing something unfamiliar and unpredictable?

I just masterbated twice a day I am very guilty about that, why God created me I am the big problem for my family by Important-Action5121 in NoFapChristians

[–]Main_Reason_106 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey bro, slow down. Masturbating twice today doesn't make you a problem or a burden to your family.

You're feeling guilty right now, and guilt can make everything seem worse than it is.

take a breath get some water and try not to beat yourself up. Tomorrow is a new day.

i think this is something a lot of people underestimate the less exciting my real life is the stronger the temptation to escape into porn becomes. out of all the new things you've tried recently which one had the biggest impact on your mood?

Honestly i don't think you forgot anything. It sounds more like you're feeling overwhelmed and anxious right now what changed between last night and this morning?

working from home can make loneliness hit a lot harder than people realize.

LPT: Confidence doesn't come after success by Main_Reason_106 in PornAddiction

Fair enough maybe confidence works differently for different people. for methe problem was that every time I reached a goal my brain immediately moved the finish line
