Got on stage and told nearly 300 people my story of being addicted to porn.

[Spangler]

Hello, reboot nationals! A few weeks ago I publicly told my story of being addicted to porn from age 9-24, PIED, NoFap, recovery, love, sex, life, etc., and I wanted to share it with the people here. I hope it inspires someone.

Dude it must been tough to open yourself and people start to laugh. Were you expecting that? How did you deal with it?
Congratulations for your courage. Your video was very inspirational!

Cheers

Haha yeah I was more than expecting it, I was planning on it. People are more receptive if you make them laugh first. It may not have seemed funny to you guys, but that's because you know so much about porn addiction and have a lot of pain associated with it. I think many were laughing at first because they saw themselves in the story.

I saw this even before you posted it here.  It is on NoFap. Brilliant, brave.  You just told the story of almost every guy here.  Thanks. 

Will I AM.

Just Brilliant! That was amazing and inspirational.
Thank you.

Powerful!!

The part about listening to the murder on the radio was almost identical to what I've experienced. Also talking about the sound of a woman's heart beat really hit home too.

Good on you!

Im basically a film editor and i recently saw a crappy film. Seriously boring without a proper plot. For a emotional dialogue with melodramatic music i actually cried. And i thought to myself "why the fk m crying fr this shit?" and aftr u seeing ur speech makes perfect sense. As i numb my porn area my emotions emerges out. Wow.
Brilliant talk man.

[knowledge is power]

Wow, thank you so much for sharing your experience. Your boldness has given me the strength I needed. I really appreciate you.

 

[Hetrix Mex]

Good Stuff, I laughed too tbh cuz I saw myself in the story. Thanks for the share man.

 

[Innocence]

I loved the video!
Love how you gave that presentation, great intro, really good info.. It just was great in general!

 

[Jason]

Awesome video and thank you for posting it.  I will be watching it many times.  Many blessings to you.

So brave! I found the laughter at the beginning disturbing. But a great video. The raw emotion was touching. So true that porn destroys life and giving it up means living again. Thanks for sharing.

 

[TodayIsTheDay]

Spangler, this was really powerful bro.  I saw a lot of myself in there.  Your story is super inspiring, and respect to you for having the stones to openly talk about the issue.  Guys like you who can open up to the world inspire guys like me who were lost in their addiction to make a change.

 

[Anders]

Wonderful stuff man. Everyone who watches that will be in awe of your courage.

Erotic woodcuts made me laugh out loud. I'm glad that you can use laughter to weaken porn's control over you while at the same time not lessen its significance as a serious problem. I've suffered from PIED with a woman more times than I care to count. Thank God for neuroplasticity! Thanks for sharing!
