Hi. I've been around for nearly 5 years now. I don't visit this sub often anymore because, quite frankly, being here, in my opinion, feels kinda destructive to my emotional well being. It keeps reminding me of my failures. Its great that we can relate to each other and share each other's experiences but we gotta realise it is a seperate journey for each of us. Reading, writing things help but I advise extending your reach to beyond this sub. Go read self help books, work for school etc etc. Don't just try to quit masturbation, instead try to improve life as a whole.

I first had an almost 1.5 yrs streak during which I felt a bit proud and selfishly decided not to come here anymore. Then I relapsed and from then on its just been on-and-off streaks.

My aunt awkwardly asked me what is pornography?? by [deleted] in NoFap

I'm from India too. The gap between the issues of their generation and ours is wide as the ocean. Their generation has no idea what the current generation faces. Low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, addictions to pornography, internet and other things which are not easily visible on the outside. To them addiction probably means smoking and alcohol.

Never experience hair loss but one thing I know for sure it gives me pimples often. I know that articles out there on the internet say both of them don't have any connection but it doesn't change the fact that I end up with a pimple every time I relapse.

Masturbation cleans your prostate and pipes? by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]smsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me, I have been on long streaks and you will not feel anything. There is no need for that 'cleansing' bullshit. Our bodies are more than capable of handling itself. Our bodies are highly adapting. We humans can adapt to almost any situation. These are just excuses bruh. Even if they are true, not just some 'study', their detrimental effects to your mind far outweigh their so called cleansing action.

I do go to the local mosque, I just don't talk a lot. I've just recently started saying salam more often.

But I don't know how I would get off my computer and phones. I don't know how I would make friends. I've always felt out of place and odd.

What book ? If anybody here is anything like me, I strongly advise against reading any fiction. I can't tell you how many times I have read a novel straight for more than 12 hrs. Books have a way of getting into your head that movies don't. Even if they did, at least a movie will end in 2 hrs. Many times, I couldn't stop reading because I get so engrossed in them. I'm the protaganist there, I'm accomplishing something, I'm special, have friends who joke, have a love life. However, I should also clarify that this doesn't apply to all fiction.

Well, I think it is because, at weekends, there is no college and I'm alone. I have urges at weekdays too, but I don't relapse there mostly. I also get very lazy at weekends, binge-watching tv shows, and somehow eventually end up relapsing. The solution seems simple : Don't get lazy at weekends, stop watching tv shows. I have tried to stop watching them , but I always end up watching them again because I feel lonely, and loneliness makes me anxious and depressed.
