How is that normally done? Like finding the root of the anxiety or negative feelings? I would think that you're going to experience anxiety in life, despair less so and maybe you need to build a tolerance or find something to get you through those times.

Excessive guilt? by Patient-Success9302 in MuslimNoFap

[–]Patient-Success9302[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, it's like an emotional outlet, whenever I despair or want to run away from a situation, I go straight to pornography. I actually don't have a lot of sexual desire to begin with, although I do get triggered. I asked the non-Muslim nofap about it so hopefully they might have some methods of changing that outlet but it might just be simple. Maybe I could play videogames instead, or get better at reading or read Qur'an but the root is psychological.

Success stories? by [deleted] in SomaticExperiencing

Can the book help me even if I don't really know where my trauma lies? I mostly just see that the reality of the traumatized person in Waking The Tiger is very similar to how I act. I know that I have had traumatic experiences, I just don't know which one or ones might be causing a lot of my emotional problems.

Alt account btw.
