Struggling with Porn Addiction
Seeing all the young ppl out here discussing abt their Porn addiction makes me feel a little embarrassed sharing abt my battle with porn addiction
As a 30 yr old Single male seeing all your close friends get married is not easy. Life is blessed with really gud parents who support me with everything i do inspite of my failed career.
To battle the stress and anxiety i fell into the habbit of mastrubating bcoz of some bad advice. what initially started as once or twice a week now has led to daily. sometimes twice a day.
Every day is a battle where i decide that starting tomorrow things will be different. I will strengthen my will and fight this addiction. But Alas, every day the will looses to lust.
Every opportunity and every time gained in the day is spent not on gaining knowledge and advancing my career but on finding new material to ***, to find a better high than yesterday.
despair kicks in seeing your batch mates advancing in life, getting married, having kids, starting a business, buying a house, making crazy amount of money while i am left behind at home in front of the screen jerking off to false expectations and fantasies the entire day.
with no one to resort to for advice as to how to battle this addiction that has turned my life with a hollow feeling I decided to share my story Hoping someone out there can guide this direction less ship (my life) is heading.

I'm sorry you are struggling.
I appreciate it can be embarrassing abd not easy to talk about.
But it's a safe and non judgemental space here.
What you've described is a healthy and natural part of life, the problem comes, when it becomes a fixation and you are always chasing a new high, but the high is always temporary .
It never lasts.
The problem created is the unrealistic expectations it creates around intimacy and the rabbit holes people end up going down to find more highs
It's a constant loop.
It's hard to see our peers getting on but this doesn't diminish your own worth .
It's about putting your energy into something more effective, day by day, I step at a time and not giving up.
You are human.
We are not perfect
But if you change nothing, nothing changes!
