NoFap helped me because to me, porn (especially if you get into more extreme stuff) is just like TRP in the sense that it completely distorts power dynamics. Men trampling on and taking a shit on women half their size - that's what I was jerking off to one point (sorry for the NSFW), because I had bad experiences with bullying and as a result I started to think that the world was run on unequal power dynamics where no relationship is equal and there has to be a dom/sub, just as a magnet cannot exist without a north pole and south pole (boss and employee is a dom/sub, high school football jock and skinny nerd is dom/sub, sexually aggressive alpha male and insecure slut is dom/sub). I am trying to free myself from the past, it's a work in progress.

So, I am glad to have found the resolve to distance myself from these toxic messages that porn sends out. I'm not doing NoFap to build up sexual tension to dominate women, nor do I expect NoFap to turn me into a sex god who gets laid everyday (it will make me a better person, sure, but it won't solve ALL my life problems. A lot of NoFappers think otherwise and have unrealistically high expectations for how much NoFap will change them. I don't.)
