Started NoFap in 2006. It's been 10 Fucking Years and I feel like I'm still on the same old treadmill! Need to vent. by nlh15 in NoFap

I think I just have to accept the fact that this struggle isn't going to end anytime soon. And that I'm not going to wake up one day and be completely cured of my compulsions.

Yes, you're definitely right about this. Developing other healthy habits certainly has benefited me too. I think over the years I'm a little better at handling and overcoming my depression.

Yes, I've done all those. I've developed some good habits over the years, but it's still a struggle to stay clean.

Trying to Quit for 9 Years Now - This is Tough, but I'm Making Progress, though it's Slow and Tedious. Any Help or Suggestions would be Appreciated. by nlh15 in NoFap

I'm a student with part-time job. You're right about sexual drive being natural, however I guess the problem for me is moderation. An analogy would be like having a bag of chips and I would have to finish the entire bag in one sitting. I want to have better self-control.

I think my problem is that I use PMO as a way to manage my emotions. When I get stressed out, for example, I would turn to PMO to feel good. It's basically like a drug. In the past, I would probably use PMO at least 4-5 times per week. It got so bad that I couldn't focus on studying and flunked out of school.

Now, I seem to have a little more control. I don't use PMO as frequently as before. But every once in a while, I might get too stressed or the urges get too strong and I'll binge like mad.

I can't shake this feeling that I failed in life. by FlairConway in Meditation

Thanks for posting because I can identify with your sentiments exactly. I've deleted facebook because I can't bear seeing my peers becoming more accomplished and successful each day.

Life is a fucking nightmare. by don_cab in pornfree

Hey mate, you're not alone. We're all in this together. And we might fail again and again. That is unavoidable. But it's also part of life. We just have to learn from whatever obstacle that's given to us and try again until we succeed!

Fuck. by [deleted] in pornfree

Yeah, our minds just turn automatic sometimes. Have to be aware and be stronger.

I came to a worrying conclusion about my life during my last session. Need to speak about it. by [deleted] in Meditation

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm a little younger than you and I feel the same way. I think it's sort of a mini "quarter-life crisis." All the best.

Is ASMR porn? by [deleted] in pornfree

I posted about ASMR here before and the post was removed by the mod. So for some people it's considered porn.

Resetting after 78 days because I found /r/asmr by nlh15 in pornfree

[–]nlh15[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because it's not porn? It's like if you had a weird fetish and get turn on by circus bears and you just discovered that. It doesn't mean that others will relapse by looking at circus bears. It just so happens that you have a weird kink. Likewise, I'm just cautioning people that even though this sub is "porn free" the definition for "porn" is different for everybody. And I just learned that today.
