Can’t get back on track
Hi guys, have been on this app for a few months now. I made it 30 days a month ago and ever since falling off I cannot seem to get back in track. I’m feeling hopeless again, it’s like my mind just gets attacked when I don’t even want to watch porn. Like some darkness that just drains the life out of me. can anyone relate?
Hey Emil — what you’re going through is something a lot of guys face after a relapse, and it doesn’t mean you’ve failed or lost everything. That darkness you described is real — it’s your brain and body adjusting without the dopamine hits porn used to give. You’re not actually craving porn; you’re craving peace, relief, connection — and porn just became the quick escape. But every time you get back up, even after falling, you build resilience and learn more about yourself. The key isn’t white-knuckling it with willpower, but finding real purpose and daily structure that gives you something meaningful to aim at. Don’t isolate — talk to people, move your body, simplify your routine, and focus on just winning today. You don’t need to feel strong to start — action creates strength. You already made it to 30 days once. You can do it again — and go further. Keep going.
