Addiction to sexting
Hey all ! I used to watch porn to masturbate . After some time, I start talking to girls online and soon become used to sexting . I am single , so I spend a lot of time looking for girls .
Is there someone who are going through something similar or have been through it.
Please help me out . Open for your advice and messages.
Hi fearlesscranberry. I went through the exact same thing and I WASTED hoursss and hours of my life. I can totally relate to how you feel.
What worked for me was Idecided to quit cold turkey. No matter ehat happened. Obviously I relapsed a fee times but now I'm free of this crap finally and I'm very grateful.
A very very good alternative I found useful was video games. They trigger the same instant gratifiction centers in the brain. It really did help in fighting this urge. If you feel the urge to sext, let those thoughts come to mind and experience them but choose to not act on them. Let them stay in your mind. Experience them in your mind and acknowledge their appeal. But don't act on those urges. Instead put on your davorite game and play.
Another good way is to be in a public place or among friends. Don't take your phone in the bathroom with you. Delete all the apps that trigger you.
Also this is a big one, don't look at girls. Trust me. Not even on the street or videos or whatever. Try to avoid looking at someone you find attractive. Trust me this will help you
Same here, I do the same for watching poor and texting ladies a few times for sexual fantasy events. Did it when I was single and partially with someone. I stopped and switched to different activities like watching movies or playing videogames. Helps distract your mind from to reduce the obession. Got scammed in the process and freaked me out for a while. Reduced my addiction partially.
