I broke down to my mom
Last year I moved away to college and since I moved I didn’t feel like i had to sneak around to watch porn anymore. I’ve been deep for the past 5 years but recently it’s gotten to the point where I couldn’t go a day without it while smoking and drinking on top of it. I’m at my dream school watching days go by as I procrastinate work and spend my days masturbating and smoking and playing video games. Today I finally just got overwhelmed by the amount of work and as I was on the phone with my mother for the second time in a week she asked if I was using or abusing anything. I told her everything through tears and as we set up the plan to work through my stuff I realized today I had to quit. I’ve tried before but it never stuck. I want to be clean of all my addictions but this one is by far the biggest and longest one I have. I made it through day 1 and im praying I can motivate myself for many more days to come.
I’ve been there. You got this man. Nobody supports you like family. Lean into the support.
