Porn ruined the person I used to be and stops me from becoming the person I should be
I’ve been addicted to porn since I was 11 in 6th grade when my cousin first showed it to me at a sleepover from that day on I have never been more than 3 weeks clean from porn. Watching porn has not only wasted plenty of my valuable time on this earth but it has also caused me distance myself from my family it has taken my energy and I have ruined several great relationships with amazing people and treated people in ways that make me ashamed of myself. Coming up on 10 years of being addicted does something to you it really made me take a big step back to a look at my life and the path I have gone down, and I’ve realized over these past few months I cannot continue this addiction for another 10 years and live the happy successful life I’ve always wanted for myself. That is why I hope this app can help me and so many others on here just trying their best day by day to be better. Let’s stay strong and we can all get through this together and remember we are not alone as long as we all support each other though the ups and downs of our recovery
All of these reason resonate with me and I’m sure with everyone else here. The type of addiction I had specifically ended up taking up to many, many hours from pretty well every day I wasn’t physically doing another activity, which is time that could’ve been spent doing much more beneficial things. I love that we can all chat and help each other on this app it looks like it’ll be very helpful for me. Have a great day my friend.
