My Advice

I see alot of people struggling and feeling that strong urge to fap, or view some type of porn. Whether it’s just the thought, a picture, social media. In my experience, this is just your brain trying to convince you that giving in to your craving is ok. It’s like a drug addict saying “One last time”. It’s never one last time, because that excuse will come back , maybe in a different form. I’ve been slowly working away from porn for the past year and most of my relapses have been me convincing myself that “it’s been a week, I’ve earned this” or “it’s just a picture of a woman, this is natural so it’s okay” and next thing I know, I’m doing it everyday and the content gets more aggressive each time. Please do not let your brain trick you! Once I understood this and understood that what I truly wanted was to improve, a meaningful relationship and to feel confident in myself, it became slightly easier to resist each time. I went from not being able to resist for even a day, to making it a week easily. This does not mean you have required your brain! It’s very easy to fall into bad habits again. I have gone 1 month in the past, and still, it only took 1 time to throw it all away. So no matter where you stand in your progress, don’t give in to any temptation, don’t let your brain convince you any variation is okay! It will get easier and easier the longer you don’t fap, but it remains just as easy to fall. Stay Disciplined and Goodluck.
