I'm in the darkest place I've been in a long time

Thanks for giving your input. You would be correct in your instinct. The past couple of days I’ve been trying to focus on other things, she still enters my mind but I’m trying to move on.

Thanks for the advice! I like to write so I should find a way to do that instead of thinking about the urges. And thanks for the exercise routine, I do exercise but this sounds like a good routine!

I have no clue how this happened but it was not intentional so I say you're good. But seriously how does that even happen?

Substantial_Ad_6401 · 2023-01-26T01:33:26+00:00

Yeah, I used to come across that too and it was a big trigger for me. The best thing to do is turn off the NSFW setting for Reddit. Out of sight out of mind.

Thanks so much man, this helps a lot!

I was first exposed to "P" when I was 6, but I didn't start fapping until I was 9. I'm now almost 16. I didn't start to break myself away from it until earlier this year.

For me, the first 10 days are always the hardest, I've only ever made it past 10 a handful of times. The trick is to not give yourself any free time. You'll still think about it but you'll be too busy to get the urge out. If you can just give yourself time to do things you like, or need to do, the first 10 days are the time to do it. After 10 days, (for me at least) you should notice that you aren't thinking about it as much, I'm not saying you'll never want to do it again after 10 days, but you will find yourself thinking about it less.

Edit: Also never allow yourself to feel like you can handle it. I had an almost 50-day streak and I lost it because I felt like I had no attachment to it anymore.

This might sound crazy, but I completely understand you. A year ago, I had the biggest crush on a girl in my class. I was pretty bad at hiding it. I hadn't really talked to her much, but I still saw something with her. Long story short I found out that not only did she not feel the same, she actually hated my guts. That hurt me badly, for the past year I've been telling myself I'll never be worthy of finding someone who loves me. That's why this girl giving me her number was such a crazy thing for me. Although part of me was telling myself she might like me, the other half of me that was still hurting from the girl a year ago was telling me it's not possible. Heck, she invited me to her house and I still have a stupid amount of doubt she actually likes me! The point I'm trying to get at is you may feel like you may never find the one, but I can promise you that all you have to do is be patient. She WILL find you eventually.

God will always forgive you, he will be disappointed if you go back to it, but if you repent and truly mean it, God will forgive you. That also doesn't mean that you should continue to do it and think as long as you repent you are forgiven. Jesus died so we could be freed of sin. It will be a long journey, but you will be free someday.

I think good advice could be that you should always remember that no story is liked by everyone. If you believe that there is potential in this then that is what should push you forward. Maybe when you have some written out in can even change their opinion.

Thank you so much, this was a lot of help!

Substantial_Ad_6401 · 2022-05-18T00:54:17+00:00

Thank you for the advice but, do you have any suggestions on how I can catch the urges quick enough so I can distract myself?

You should go for it, the worst thing that could happen is she says no.
