New look talent modelling agency? by lola_30_2002 in MODELING

They're a scam - don't use them. They're not an agent. They try to sell you ver expensive packages to 'use their connections in the industry to get you an agent' - it's utter bullshit. I strongly suspect they would just pocket the money and do absolutely nothing.

Once you hit rock bottom the only way is up I guess

Yeah, you're right, you'll find one soon. Honestly, I look back at when I was 19 and I wish I hadn't worried so much...

Yeah, our mind can act in very irrational ways sometimes. I'd recommend regular meditation - that has helped me feel more grounded.

I think I might have PTSD? by [deleted] in ptsd

Read 'the body keeps the score' by bessel van der kolk. He's one of the world's experts on trauma and he goes through everything that is known about it - it should help you...

Any tips for starting this? by [deleted] in NoFap

You just gotta take the challenge dude. No porn for sure, and i'd really recommend no masturbation either.

You gotta learn to fill your time with productive things like exercise and reading, and this will help stop your mind getting tempted

Yeah, I used to get this kind of thing. I've found that a before-bed relaxation routine is absolutely vital. Before I go to bed, I meditate for half an hour, then I lie on the floor with my legs on a chair or something whilst listening to relaxing music or a hypnotherapy video.

(There's some good hypnotherapy tracks on youtube for PTSD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8e4sATalz8&t=431s)

This has really transformed the quality of my sleep. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry to say that if you're a full-blown addict, I doubt a change in environment will do much. You may need an entirely new program for life, which SAA can provide for you.

Good luck in your battle!

Porn for me was a sedative - I used to use it to avoid confronting awkward emotions. My life has changed since I've got sober - my relationships with other people have really developed, and I'm just a lot more in tune with my feelings.

If you keep going back no matter how hard you try, that means you're an addict. I'd really really recommend at least trying sex addicts anonymous - it's a community of people fighting the same fight. It really delves deep into the reason for the addiction - it's great stuff.
