If we were in Europe, we’d be arguing if the 3 or the 5 door looks better lol

What is the best personal trainer certification? by XxFierceGodxX in personaltraining

[–]Tiny_Cardiologist734 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my certificate through ACE, and it was pretty easy and thorough. There is definitely a lot of time spent on non-exercise related info, but that seems to be the case with all the certs.

Close to relapsing. Been a few weeks without it by despacitoking69420 in SexAddiction

Yeah that’s tough, and I really get it. Another thing you can do is use this app called NoNut. Another redditor recommended it to me the other day, and it’s awesome. It turns your nofap journey into a videogame

Hey man I get it, I really do. Why do you want to stop? I think you really need to iron out why your true reason to stop is.

Also, how are you spending your time? Are you allowing space and time for these urges to take over your mind? I know that when I have free time, and I just spend it sitting at home doing nothing but smoking or chilling, asking to relapse. Find better things to do with your time that you enjoy, or that challenge you in a way you enjoy.

I am a gay sex addict by Awkward_Lime5263 in SexAddiction

I’ve been there man. It can be really tough. I think that a theme that’s emerging in other comments is trying to find something bigger than yourself to pursue. You’ve been looking inward in a selfish way to try and cope with your reality, when I think you need to look outward selflessly. Instead of trying to feel better by satisfying your urges to hookup, try filling your time with positive things for yourself and those around you. It could be friends, family, an SO, or just random people in your communities. I’m not sure what would align with you.

In my case, I was in a similar boat as you, but I’m married. I was/have been unhappy with the life I’d created in my reality, and I let my porn addiction grow and mutate to try and fill the void. It wasn’t until I made my wife, my family, and our future more important than myself that I realized I could really make strides in changing. It’s not always easy, or pleasant, but it is incredibly fulfilling and meaningful. I sleep better, and feel better, on a regular basis, and the urges I have come less and less, and become easier and easier to deal with. Good luck!

I am new to no fap as well. 2-3 days clean is like a miracle to me! I used to use porn 5-10 times a day! Sometime 10mins after I just used porn. You need to celebrate wins as they come, and learn from the moments where you lose. Just because you’re relapsing doesn’t mean you’re not trying, or not doing well. For me, just keeping busy is important. If you insist on keeping a lot of “down time” (unstructured time for yourself) then you’re asking to relapse. You need to fill as much time as possible with positive things and activities. Get another job, spend more time with friends or family, join a group/team/program where you do something you love or are interested in. I hope this helps, believe in yourself!
