Help me

I’m done. Don’t know how much longer I can do this. Keep breaking the addiction just to go back to it. It’s killing me. I hate this. I’m lonely. I love this girl and I can’t hide my feelings but I don’t think she feels the same. Just want to leave everyone and everything behind and start a new life. I can’t do this man. I need help. Seriously. I’m always the shoulder to cry on but I never get a shoulder in return. And maybe I don’t need one because I’m a man. But I’m a human being and I have feelings too. I’m not sure anybody truly cares about me or if I’m just another person in their life. I don’t even get urges anymore I just do it for comfort. I know how fucking terrible this addiction is but it still holds me down. Everything goes good until I fall back in. Mentally I’m not alright. I can’t connect with other people so I just want to isolate once I graduate. Get away and get rich. Find myself. I don’t wanna end it anymore but I did before. I can’t. I have too much potential and too great of a purpose. I just can’t fight this anymore.

Bro, I’ve been exactly where you are. I know how crushing it feels—like you’re stuck in a loop you can’t break no matter how hard you try. I used to think I was weak or broken, but I realised I was just hurting and tired—and using porn to numb that pain. It feels like comfort, but it’s not. It’s a trap that creates even more discomfort and stress. What helped me was understanding that urges are like a telephone ring. They come and go. If you don’t respond to their call, they will leave. But if you do, they will fill you with shame and regret. I also found an accountability partner which I believe helped the most. Find someone you trust that can hold you accountable daily and support you through this. Could be a family member, a friend or even a therapist. Finally. Don’t isolate yourself. Let a few real people in. Start small. You’ve already taken the biggest step by admitting you need help. You’re not alone, and you can definitely climb out of this. I did, and you can too—one honest day at a time.

My man, I have been where you are many times. I’m praying for you man. At times prayer is the only thing that gives me hope for my future. I’m not trying to convert you, I’m just saying, if you’re willing, try prayer.

I know how good it feels, my whole life changed when I stopped but somehow I always find my way back to it. I don’t know why. It’s sunk deep. I’ve lost the drive to stop it.

Think of how good it would feel to stay away from porn, and how it will benefit your everyday life. My life has gotten so much better after i stopped beating my meat
