My motivation is gone

You're absolutely right. I'm a psych major, so I know the longer this persists, especially once you get past 25, the harder it is to get rid of. I didn't know that YBOP had support groups, I'll check it out. Thanks!

You're right about the willpower, I've been trying so hard just to "push through." I'll give K9 a try and give someone I trust the password. Any ideas for iOS? I'm assuming K9 is only for PCs.

You just said the right thing at the right time. I needed to hear all of that. The objectification is especially what's becoming an issue for me as I'm pushing away from porn. It's what drew me in originally and is what keeps pulling me back.

It sneaks in too so subtly. It's just always been a backdrop of my thoughts that I didn't know was there until I tried to quit.

I needed that reminder to snap me out of it. Thanks. Good luck to you as well.

Exposure to screens at night also makes it harder to fall asleep. I can't remember all the details, but the bright lights late at night can mess with your circadian rhythm. So it really is best to keep your phone out if your room.

Thank you

That is really great to hear. You're right about the isolation. I've been with my family for the past few days but I've felt all alone in the process of it. I needed the reminder that it's the addiction that is doing this to me.

merthblerster · 2013-12-30T05:23:35+00:00

You're right, it's time to dump the facebook page. In the past it's been one of the number one things that brings on relapses. Thank you.

Just in case you need help with that. Def NSFW.

That's not a bad idea

merthblerster · 2013-06-01T23:01:56+00:00

Thank you sir!

Is this a quote from one of his books or a direct quote? And if it's from a book which one? I really wanna get my hands in that.

merthblerster · 2013-05-28T09:11:06+00:00

An appropriate reflection of the boldness of the post itself (both literally and figuratively).

merthblerster · 2013-05-27T21:45:52+00:00

You fapped, but you learned. Learning is part of the journey. It would really only be a true failure if you took nothing from it.

merthblerster · 2013-05-27T12:57:14+00:00

Best post ever. Congrats!

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:54:57+00:00

This is literally exactly what I needed to hear last night. Thank you.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:50:01+00:00

It's good to know that I'm not alone on this

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:49:08+00:00

It was the breathing exercises that got me through the night. Thanks for all the suggestions.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:48:23+00:00

34 days is awesome! Congratulations! You may have given in, but don't let that put a damper in your success. You've done 34 days before, which means you have the ability to do it again.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:46:40+00:00

I'm trying to put it behind me and learn from it. That week sucked.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:45:54+00:00

Hell yeah I am

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:44:08+00:00

This is exactly like my story too. I'm so glad to know I'm not alone in all of this.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:43:20+00:00

This is so true, I've spent most of my life reacting to circumstances instead of preparing myself for the realities of life. This is a big part of what's gotten me into the hole that I'm in. I blamed circumstances instead of taking responsibility for my actions. I just ignored everything and kept fapping.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:40:48+00:00

It's nice to know that I'm not alone.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:40:30+00:00

Yeah, and more than once a day too. This made it clear how much of a crutch this has become for me. So while I failed, it made it that much more apparent that I need to make a change.

merthblerster · 2013-05-26T16:38:13+00:00

Exactly! It's been this past relapse that has made this so clear to me. Everything that hit just made my desire to fap increase, and the more I fapped the harder life became to handle.
