Hi guys. Check out my 36 months post for more background information. I really don't know how long my PMO past will haunt me. I am really tired of it. I finally want to close this chapter for good. My PMO addiction was beaten a long time ago. But I still have the negative consequences (PAWS)...

Month 40 and still PAWS.

Month 40 and still PAWS (post acute withdrawal symptoms).

Yes you got it. I am in a PMO PAWS group and all report the same. It is strange that people believe in PAWS from alcohol, drugs or medication, but not in PAWS from PMO. PAWS - Wikipedia PAWS - American addiction center I am tired of explaining obvious issues to people. Either you want to...

1. "well to be fair i think what he is saying is that P use long term has messed his brain up and is taking him forever to recover even with abstinence," Answer: It seems like it will be forever, but according to my research, PAWS should last a maximum of 4 years. I am now at month 40. 2. "not...

1. "Experiment, if you're sure that abstinence is the source of your misery, then why are you still on your streak? This doesn't make sense to me. I can see staying away from porn if you're convinced it caused problems for you, but it makes no sense to blame abstinence...and then continue...

How were you during PMO ? How were you when you stopped PMO ? If you notice a big difference there, it's PAWS. If you get symptoms you didn't have before, it's PAWS. If you get withdrawal symptoms in general, it's PAWS. If those around you don't recognize you, it's PAWS. If you can no longer...

That’s your opinion. Abstinence from PMO is the cause of my anhedonia and PAWS in general. I have no doubts about this.

I am 39 months without porn, masturbation and conscious ejaculations.

No relapse.

I get up in the morning and I don't feel any emotions. I don't feel happy and I don't feel sad. I feel no motivation to do anything productive. I feel no drive and no energy to do anything productive. I don't feel any positive feelings or so-called vibrations in my body and in my brain. I get up...

"A classic sign of PAWS is the amplification of stress. The tendency is to freeze and we don´t even know why, and then we become stuck in an endless confusion loop and scattered thoughts. If you pay attention, you will notice that if something goes beyond your routine, you will feel stress...

We have a similair story. My social anxiety started when I started PMO at the age of 13. Before that I didn't have social anxiety. It's so good to hear about your progress. Your story gives me hope. I feel stuck in the flatline. Every day is the same.

1. How was your frequency during your PMO time ? 2. Did you do "edging" during your PMO time ? 3. Did you escalate in fetishes ? At which age did you escalate in fetishes ? 4. Did you watch other categories than heterosexual ? At which age did you start watching other categories than...

Interesting. My social anxiety started when I began with PMO (porn, masturbation, orgasm) at the age of 13. Before that I didn't have any social anxiety.

Nope. It's 100% social anxiety...

Lately I'm mostly outside in the city, because the sun is shining again. I walk every day for about 1 hour. I watch people eating, drinking, walking, talking, chatting, laughing, etc. I look almost every person in the face. Sometimes I am at the train station at a special place where a lot of...

Oh man. What a story. I can relate with many many things. I am 26 years old and I did PMO (porn, masturbation, orgasm) from age 13-22. By end of March I will finish 39 months hardmode. No relapse. No conscious ejaculation, so no masturbation. "I could not go further to the store and ask...

NO! I will never do this. Most people are just not patient. Everyone wants to be cured immediately and looks for something that does not bring the cure anyway. I let my brain and body heal naturally without any medications (drugs), injections or anything else. Time and abstinence will lead...

@TakeActionNow @logicprox I don't agree with you guys. You apparently did not read my 30 months post. There I wrote the following: "And I just find it funny when people always write the same things like the following: Do sports, go to nature, you have to be more social, you have to meditate...
