I saw a girl I had a thing for post for the first time in months. My heart dropped when she revealed she’s 6 months pregnant and while I’m happy for her, I was sad I was missing out on a gorgeous woman like her. She looked absolutely stunning in her pregnancy photos. I thought to myself, these are the things I’m missing out on because of my addiction. Not just her but finding a beautiful woman to create a family with. I’m not only addicted to porn but I’m addicted to doom scrolling. So many hot chicks on Instagram and a rollercoaster of emotions as I scroll through TikTok & X. I have so much potential I’m wasting because I spend too much time on this nonsense and it stresses me out. I dig myself an endless hole and I end up filling that hole with the hit of dopamine I get from masturbating. Today I realized I want to be a father within the next 5 years. I want to marry a beautiful woman with strong, traditional moral values. In order to do that, I must be a man with strong, traditional moral values. I must be disciplined and consistent with my work ethic and not fall into the instant gratification I get from these vices. I must be a provider. I must be confident. I must be in shape. I must be financially abundant. Most importantly, I must be faithful to God. I can’t do any of this by myself and I certainly can’t do it while falling for temptation and instant gratification. Pray for me..

I was reading up on the parable of the talents today, and thought about what it took to be a “Good and Faithful Servant”. This is it - God has given you immense potential, skills, abilities, etc. Wasting your life away by being unproductive for the Lord is not the way. You must take action and change, get on the path that God has set out for you, and become a Good and Faithful Servant. Love you brother, God bless

Not to sound like an asshole but the reality is, you can say all these things, declare what you want for yourself, but the reality is, if there’s no action, then you’ll just be the same person you are now in 5 years…..

Doomscrolling was a big vice of mine too. Delete social media. Or rather, ask yourself: “what value does social media bring to me? Why do i have this in my life? Is it a necessity?” As you explore the answers to those questions, i hope it leads you to confidently taking the step to delete social media and fill that newfound free time with substantial hobbies.

Hey man, that’s awesome. I hear you, I was in the exact same situation. Feeling unmotivated, leaving my girlfriend unsatisfied because I took forever(because I was addicted.) But it gets better. I promise it does man, stay strong, stay focused on your goal. I downloaded this app recently to keep track with myself, I used to struggle big time. You’ve got the right head on your shoulders man, that’s the hard part is getting your mind right. Half the battle is won my man, now all you have to do is act on it. Stay strong. Fill that doomscrolling and ogling girls with reading, working out, cooking, etc. that’s what helped me get over it, find something to replace it and get your mind off of it. Unfollow these girls dragging you into temptation and follow better accounts. Search for things your interested in and replace those half naked girls with your interests on social media. Stay strong brother. I know you can do it, and years from now you’ll remember where you started and be greatful.
