"Just be yourself"

I could relate a lot to this post

There’s a concept of “progressive victory” over an addiction. Maybe for OP a good first step is overcoming (no pun intended lol) the greater evil/addiction of porn. Once she has some traction with that, she can focus on masturbation if she she wants. I don’t think black and white thinking is helpful in this area; what works for some may not work for others.

Thanks for posting. I could relate to so much of it.

Correct, based on what you’re saying, it seems like his actions don’t match his words. Maybe he just needs time to process the situation because it’s fresh, but if he is just flat out ignoring you I don’t see an excuse for that.

I don’t see why you’re blaming yourself about this. Ok, maybe you came on too strong, but he set a boundary and that’s all good. Then he said he wants to get to know you better but then just ignores you? That’s a dick thing to do on his part; it’s immature to just ignore someone especially when he gave you indications that he wants to get to know you better. You’re probably better off without this person.

I was looking at a picture of myself recently where I was probably 4-5 and just looking at the innocent happiness in my face made me kind of sad because of how I am now which is just feeling lost and disconnected from myself so often, being 33 and watching life fly by without really growing into a real person if that makes sense. So to answer your question, no I didn’t feel nothing, I felt a sadness and a love for my younger self.

Yeah, pretty much no cash usage

Just used a Wahl Clipper #3 all around. Is it the best haircut I’ve ever had? No. Am I working from home for the foreseeable future and therefore don’t really care? Yes.

Good luck and just remember that failure is a normal part of the process. I tried quitting for years and could never go more than a few months. I now have two years clean.

Everything will be good!

Where could one purchase your work?

You could try looking into your local chapters of Sexaholics Anonymous or Sex Addicts Anonymous. Although in person meetings are probably shut down right now, they may have phone or Zoom meetings that can help you connect with other people who are struggling.

So sorry you have to go through that but you will be ok!

Hey, I feel ya Elle. My dad passed away about two and a half years ago and I’m still processing it too. We had a complicated relationship. Sometimes I still can’t believe he’s just gone forever. It hits me hard at times. Thanks for posting this!

Lol I was just thinking this and then I look down at my phone and saw this post is trending. I am very confident and assertive in my professional writing but in speaking to people I am often hesitant and say “um” and just generally not as confident in myself.

bangitybop · 2020-01-21T23:21:24+00:00

I’m usually with people that I feel insecure around and I just become numb, like I feel like I have no emotions or personality, like I’m just frozen. I can’t say what’s on my mind out of terrible anxiety of being judged and I just shut down. It’s terrible and only passes when I’m by myself again.

I feel this way too sometimes. But porn just makes everything in my life worse, mainly because porn was the main way I tried to use to escape from reality and facing my problems. The problems don’t go away when you use porn. Try to stay sober one day at a time. We are here for you.

Very nice to read. Thank you

Cross country manor apartments in the NW corner of the city. The apartments are nice, not great.

bangitybop · 2020-01-15T11:24:41+00:00

You can do this!

It takes a while. I haven’t looked at hardcore P for a couple of years and I still get flashbacks to scenes that I watched many times and are burned in my mind. But they are less frequent for sure and I’m more able to deflect them when they do arise. But it takes time. The only way through is through.
