Over the last year I’ve watch myself shrink from constantly being disrespected at work and in life and my anxiety now is constantly through the roof. My brain is always in fight or flight mood and it’s absolutely exhausting. I’m supposed to be training for a half marathon in September yet I’ve used porn to deal with those insecurities and now I don’t enjoy my life at all. I just want to isolate and be away from the world. I dread waking up every single day. I had no idea my life could go from being on top of the world to barely being able to make conversation with my parents. I really don’t know what to do

If you feel like you’re at your lowest right now, you could only go up from here even though you feel like you have strayed away from God he is still waiting for you to come back home with open arms he will never ever give up on you

Just keep trying and stay with it. It’s gonna be a lonely road at times and keep telling yourself that you want this and can do it! I’ve been taking countless walks and listening to my audio books just to keep myself busy. I don’t have many friends to hang out with and my friend lives out of town and try and keep in touch. Reach out as much as possible and you’re doing it now. Also don’t be too hard on yourself you’re doing something new and be gentle man, you got this!!!

I am religious and I just feel like I’ve strayed so far away from him and the person I want to be so badly again that I don’t recognise myself anymore

Hey man you are worth it. You might not feel it right now but you are loved, by people in your life and everyone on this app. You can do this and will do it. I don’t know if your religious but god hasn’t forgotten about you, he has you in his hands and wants the best for you. You can do this bud.
