Another major change

[grateful78]

Hello everyone,
Every time I think I'm done with changes in my life I discover something else to work on. I never thought I'd ever try to tackle this. I'm sick of the social awkwardness caused by today's hard-core porn. It's not natural in any way. I finally met the most amazing woman and porn is holding me back in so many ways. I need as much support as possible. Peace

Nope, porn is not real. Its just pixels on a screen that your brain decodes into images. Nothing more than that. DOnt let something so trivial destroy your life! (and penis).

Hello everyone,
So I hit a week today and I already notice a difference. I am also in recovery so I have plenty of support. This subject is different from anything else I've faced thus far so I reached out to a close friend. I'm being cautious. I never looked at it as a problem until I started really changing other aspects of my life. I always figured it was a normal thing until I really thought about it. The guilt & loneliness. Not to mention the social awkwardness when I'm around women. Sex is about emotional attachment; not anal gangbangs. I'm taking things a day at a time just like drinking. I have almost 6 years off alcohol and 7 months off cigarettes. This is the next step for me. I wanted to give a big thanks to Gabe for speaking out and starting this movement. God bless you brother.

Hello everyone,
So as of July 20th I hit the 30 day mark. I'm going through the flat line phase right now. For one thing I definitely feel calmer & less anxious. My confidence is way up as well. I am noticing myself taking to women and actually Interested in what they have to say. The porn images flash in and out of my mind on occasion and it helps me to realize how much damage I've done to my mind. I'm rewiring and staying strong. I get through the day and don't have to deal with that guilt and shame. I remain focused on exercise, music, reading healthy things. I had to come to the realization that I will never find a lasting relationship with that kind of mindset. Women are beautiful,they don't want to be choked and spit. I quit drinking and smoking and now this. I am far from done on this journey called life. God bless
