Going to extremes
Hi, I just started my journey back up again after I tried to do this a while ago but soon after I relapsed and gave up. My reason for all of this is because my porn addiction has made me go from what would be considered normal porn to extreme types of porn and because of this I feel disgusted in myself and ashamed that I would ever go to those lengths just for an orgasm. Thankfully, I’ve had this epiphany again but this time I want to be better and I actually want to stick with this and not give up; so if anyone has been in a similar situation or just has good advice can you please share it because I’m scared for my life and how this addiction is affecting it and I really don’t want to give up this time.
One thing that helps me is my age and my goals. I have a very similar situation to you. I just remind myself that continuing this habit is self-destructive behavior and will prevent me from having a healthy relationship and I’m only getting older so I have to fix it now or I won’t be able to have a family. Some may view that as harsh, but reality can be just that, harsh.
