I’ve been addicted since middle school, but it got increasingly worse during the pandemic. Fast forward now, I’m a junior in college with an outstandingly supportive girlfriend. A couple days ago, I witnessed for the first time how disappointed my gf was when I told her I relapsed again. It really broke me. So I made a promise to myself to never make her feel like that ever again. The first step is self-awareness. The second step is knowing how the addiction affects those you love. The final step is taking accountability and stopping for good. I will overcome this addiction.
You got this man, just have to be serious about it. I ruined my own relationship when I was younger because of porn addiction. I couldnt quit no matter what, but my gf was different that she told me she didn’t want to know or help. When i would tell her my urges she would actually get mad at me and make me feel even more like shit. Do it for yourself brother, and your girl. You CAN become that better man
