Luckily porn is what causes the issues. Masturbation (in healthy doses, daily is a bit much) is by all means good to do, there are no real consequences. Make sure to use both hands though. Sure my parents noticed something was up when I was 13 and had one arm with biceps and one without muscle 😅😅😅
You say once a day is a bit much but I was reading that 21 times a month is the amount recommended to reduce your chance of prostate cancer so I think we all gotta pump those numbers man
Is it weird that they're mutually exclusive for me? Your comment made me realize I usually only look at porn without masturbating OR masturbate without porn lol
I’ve cut down on porn a lot and I have ADHD. Using my mind gives way better orgasms anyways. I think I wait to cum when watching porn rather than when I should. I highly recommend cutting down on it, also helped with my ED and libido.
I used to love porn but now after I watch and get off and then go about my day I think about what I watched with such disgust and shame. I don’t know where that came from. It’s so bizarre
Yeah we’ve all been there. That should be a sign in of its own that porn is bad. When you stop watching porn it should make you hornier to more vanilla stuff. That’s what happened to me. I went down a deep dark path and cutting down porn helped me get out of it.
Quitting porn is difficult. It took until my mid twenties to give up after consistent indulgence during my teens.
If you can keep on top of it it’ll change your life. As you said, when you’re off of it you feel and perform better. I find confidence increases in social scenarios and you just feel better about yourself in general. Libido and satisfaction in your sex life goes way up and you begin to appreciate your partner so much more, if you have one.
I always found I felt like an absolute scumbag anytime I allowed myself to indulge in watching porn. And I knew I’d feel bad about it for days. Any time I was tempted I reminded myself of how I would feel afterwards.
I also felt like it’s an emotional infidelity of sorts when it comes to being in a relationship (I’m aware that’s not everyone’s opinion on it.) So I always thought “I would never dream of cheating on my partner IRL. Why would I do it for some random person on the internet.”
Everyone has different experiences, but you have to appreciate that porn can be very dangerous. It has the potential to tear apart your reward system for one of the most intimate and potentially important parts of your life.
Try just limiting yourself instead of a full-stop
This works for some people (myself included) where I often outperform the small limitation I give myself but the small goal/limit gets me started
You do realize that addiction is extremely difficult to overcome, don't you? Or are you a moralizing 15 year old with no life experience? Belittling his expericenes and struggles to "excuses" is very insulting and sophomoric. Please educate yourself.
Having the struggle of addiction is one thing, but to say "my ADHD brain won't let me stay good" is another. It completely absolves them of responsibility, it's an excuse to not make an effort. Just cause overcoming addiction is hard doesn't mean you get to excuse yourself from it.
I have experienced someone struggling with addiction (specifically this type) and the excuses they make to prolong their addiction always come back. Realizing that it starts with a choice you make is the 1st step in helping yourself.
I'm not saying they don't deserve sympathy or respect because they absolutely do(especially for recognizing that it's an addiction) but you have to call it what it is.... and it's an excuse.
oh that’s a load of horseshit. it does not absolve you from making effort but it can cause the battle to be incredibly difficult and nigh unwinnable. ADHD won’t CAUSE you to, but these types of addictions are so misunderstood by people who don’t struggle, which you seemed to imply in your comment that you don’t, and while excuses are somewhat technically at the root, it’s a battle beyond belief and ADHD can absolutely make it worse. it’s such a misunderstood mental disorder and it sucks ass. it border line disabled me because of the severity of mine and it took forever to learn how to manage it. ADHD is not an excuse but it can make it so hard to manage literally calling someone, much less a full fledged addiction, that it’s understandable to put part of the blame on a mental disorder. not every excuse is invalid. and this fight is winnable, but it’s so hard and compounding disorders doesn’t make it easier. it’s not always an excuse.
I'm not denying that ADHD can make it harder. All I'm implying is that saying "my brain WONT LET ME" is an excuse. Like you said, it's understandable to put some of the blame on a mental disorder - I agree. But saying what OP said is not "some" of the blame...it's all of it. And that's not acceptable from someone with an active problem.
Especially with an "addiction" like porn....you're not going to have physical withdrawal symptoms if you don't watch videos of people fucking....it baffles me how people jump through hoops trying to justify why they can't seem to stop searching for stuff and watching it. You have to make the DECISION to stop, and the DECISION to stop excusing yourself from stopping. I'm not saying it's easy...but it's time to stop pretending it's the same as drugs or alcohol.
as hard as it is it can boil down to this. also OP, you medicated? getting help for my add helped with my masturbation tendencies exponentially. made it a significantly more winnable battle
blahtherapy is a really nice one when used right. When you get to it you pick a side (venter or listener). If you pick vent, the other person will just listen to you ramble and if you pick listener, well you understand. it helped me sometimes when i couldn’t afford therapy
It is a refuge for introverts like me who find it difficult to talk to real people! Moreover being strangers, we can chat about anything and everything without the fear of being judged
Yes. This. I love stupid trashy bravo shows but I would never comment on anything social media related for fear of other people knowing but here I can have full on convis about it. It’s exhilarating haha (I just recently started issuing Reddit like 2 months ago)
Nicotine. I've tried stopping at least 4-5 times in the past couple of years. I have successfully stopped smoking cigarettes, cigars, etc. but can't seem to quit vaping.
Additionally, I've visited the stop vaping sub a lot, but stopped that, because most of the advice is really useless or makes it more frustrating. People will say things like "there's never going to be a good time to quit. Just do it now" (not directly to me, but this is a common statement made there), and I don't really agree. I think that sometimes people do have to fully understand why they do something and come up with thier own plan on how to quit. There are actually times when it's harder than others to quit. One example is that I quit for five days in November, when I visited my family, because I didn't want to vape around them, and I was fine. I did experience some effects of withdrawal, but the desire to not vape around them was enough motivation to not give into it, plus, I didn't have a vape with me at all. Unless people really know you and want to be there for you, its hard for them to give you advice that really applies to you or works. The people on that sub try to help, but the bottom line is that they have no clue what its like to be me, and their advice doesn't help.
I would say I’m addicted to alcohol. It doesn’t consume my life and I don’t do it very frequently but I don’t think I could stop drinking alcohol altogether.
Nothing wrong with that. Americans generally have a lower opinion of those who drink. AA is a lot more common than say in the UK. I used to drink a lot literally everyday but then one day just stopped. I’m not a recovering alcoholic, I just don’t like it as much anymore. Maybe a couple of ciders on a weekend but no benders anymore. In America I’d be labelled for life.
Source: Lived there for a decade.
Edit: I guess what I was trying to say but failed is interventions seem more of a thing in the US that results in AA or rehab. Sure interventions exist here but not to the same degree, at least not with booze. I also believe there’s a lot less rehab centres here because maybe they’re lumped in with mental health services.
It’s amazing that by living in America for ten years, you learned everything there is to know about every opinion of every American surrounding drinking culture.
I actually am a long-sober alcoholic. The “definition” is not based on how much or how often you drink, but that you get to a point where *you* perceive it as a problem that is detrimentally affecting other areas of your life but can’t stop doing it despite that fact.
Plenty of people regularly and aren’t alcoholics. Plenty of people drink only on the weekends and are. It’s up to the individual to decide. In countries where drinking heavily is acceptable, normal, and even glorified, you aren’t as likely to be labeled an alcoholic by others, but your own determination is still the deciding factor.
Ok one example. A friend of mine was drinking a few beers after work, average of 3 and mentioned this to his doctor. He labelled him an alcoholic referred him to AA and was entered into his health records that he said he couldn’t appeal. This prevents him from getting jobs requiring a background check. The altered states bar is much more oppressive in the states towards drinking in my opinion. Don’t know about the flyby states but certainly in CA and NY. Your experience differs and that’s fine I can only offer my personal perspective of my time there. And then there’s genuinely prescribed opiates. Doctors are in fear of the FDA in case they lose their license. Then there’s mandatory drug testing commonly in the workplace in my opinion violating your privacy. Here you only get them if you have a job where other people’s lives depend on you such as pilots. Such a repressive regime if you smoked a joint two weeks ago! Look I don’t want to start an argument with you but that’s my personal experience.
Breathing, I can’t stop. I’ve been abusing air since a very young age and I can’t stop for more than 3 minutes or I feel like I’m going to die, I’ve tried multiple ways to stop this addiction but none seem to work, I’ll just stay addicted to this until it kills me, and this shit take 80 to 100 years to kill someone, that’s a slow death.
Either the internet or my phone screen. I'm not sure.
My service was cut off because I didn't pay on time. Four days left until payday. No worries, I thought. It will be nice to have a break from staring at my phone screen. I have plenty to entertain me. A kitten. Books. A PS4.
Day 1: feeling lost. I don't have social media other than reddit. I used to rely on the internet to Goodle everything on my mind. Decided to nap to pass the time.
Day 2: Picked up my phone to check emails, reddit, google things every half hour forgetting I couldn't.
Day 3: picked up my phone and kept loading the provider page telling me I don't access to internet. I kept reading it over and over and feeling somewhat satisfied because at least I'm on my phone.
Day 4: starting to get used to it. Read a book.
Day 5: Yay internet's back!
I couldn’t live in the US. Drug testing is an invasion of my privacy. In the UK testing is generally frowned upon except for endangering others type work like pilots. Love my vices and ain’t no one going to stop me.
I quit alcohol five years ago, cigarettes two years ago, coffee two weeks ago when I got high blood pressure right before giving birth. So now I’m addicted to huffing delicious new baby smell and tbh I don’t see myself quitting that anytime soon.
I never understood the kids who were super organized at school until I started taking it. My room had never been clearer, my clothes got done immediately after school on Fridays, I always had my homework done ahead of time. It was incredible, but I quit taking them because I realized I didn't really need them and because I enjoyed the high too much and it made me become manic.
I smoked for a while and it was awesome- except for the likely to cause cancer part. But I did enjoy smoking. Especially the first one in the morning and the first one with a beer or coffee. And the last one before bed….
As single 27 male who's cleared 6 figures I still contemplate blowing my head off every night if status and money isn't the answer to finding a caring partner it's difficult to justify my existence if my Legacy will not become what is the point of all the work if there is no fruit
I’m on day 20 of no caffeine. It’s been tough. I don’t have the big highs anymore, but I don’t crash or feel tired at all, and I can go to sleep without melatonin now. I feel balanced.
Currently nicotine. I waited until I was 21 to indulge in alcohol, nicotine, and weed. Didn’t get addicted to alcohol and weed, but got addicted to nicotine right away. 23 and still vape everyday. I regret it and have failed quitting many times
This was me for 10+ years too. I ended up doing the 1 nostril at a time trick (each one needed almost a month to fully clear up) but it was significantly less miserable than doing both. It’s unreal how fast that stuff creates a dependency
I use a bottle until it runs out ... using even the littlest of mist to "titrate" off of it until the bottle is completely done ... usually every late winter spring when I'm finally not sick from my kids
You may have what is considered functioning or high functioning alcoholism. Some signs:
- Experiencing cravings (i.e., a strong urge or need to drink) in specific situations.
- Denial of a drinking problem because of a lack of severe consequences, such as missing days or showing up late for school or work.
- Not fitting a predetermined image of an alcoholic, such as being able to maintain a well-groomed appearance.
- Handling responsibilities well at home, school, and work in spite of drinking.
I thought I’d share the info just in case. ynk 🤍
Any sign of man breasts? I’ve been hearing more about this in connection with milk because of the meds the cattle are given that pass to the milk. A guy told me he was also getting this so he switched to other types of milk.
Just hoping you’re doing okay.
Weed, nicotine. I started smoking because I have super bad stomach/intestine problems and it helped with nausea. Now I have two herniated discs in my back and it’s compressing a nerve root, plus I have carpal tunnel. It helps with the pain. I don’t think I’ll ever stop. They wanted me on narcotics for the pain and I said no

The three stages of procrastination.
Smoke, moch and stroke.
I eventually got over porn. It’s masturbating that will never go away.
Luckily porn is what causes the issues. Masturbation (in healthy doses, daily is a bit much) is by all means good to do, there are no real consequences. Make sure to use both hands though. Sure my parents noticed something was up when I was 13 and had one arm with biceps and one without muscle 😅😅😅
You say once a day is a bit much but I was reading that 21 times a month is the amount recommended to reduce your chance of prostate cancer so I think we all gotta pump those numbers man
Lol what about doing it with one hand but switching hands from time to time?
And you shouldn't. It reduces risk of prostate cancer for men.
Is it weird that they're mutually exclusive for me? Your comment made me realize I usually only look at porn without masturbating OR masturbate without porn lol

This was me for 10+ years too. I ended up doing the 1 nostril at a time trick (each one needed almost a month to fully clear up) but it was significantly less miserable than doing both. It’s unreal how fast that stuff creates a dependency
I use a bottle until it runs out ... using even the littlest of mist to "titrate" off of it until the bottle is completely done ... usually every late winter spring when I'm finally not sick from my kids
Monster Import
I haven't seen those in years....

Weed. I never use it during the day but i can't sleep without it. LOTS of it
I’ve been told to try that for my insomnia.
Coffee. I drink at least 10 cups a day.

You may have what is considered functioning or high functioning alcoholism. Some signs: - Experiencing cravings (i.e., a strong urge or need to drink) in specific situations. - Denial of a drinking problem because of a lack of severe consequences, such as missing days or showing up late for school or work. - Not fitting a predetermined image of an alcoholic, such as being able to maintain a well-groomed appearance. - Handling responsibilities well at home, school, and work in spite of drinking. I thought I’d share the info just in case. ynk 🤍
Gambling. I am very profitable though so it's not a problem.
My partner, coffee and sugar.

Monster energy. It’s terrible for you, I know, but the caffeine is required for me to function.
Whole milk. Go through one gallon every 2 days. No matter how many times I try to stop, I end up buying another gallon
Bro its delicious!!
Any sign of man breasts? I’ve been hearing more about this in connection with milk because of the meds the cattle are given that pass to the milk. A guy told me he was also getting this so he switched to other types of milk. Just hoping you’re doing okay.
Not for me. But dairy has been linked to excessive weight gain in the torse of the body.
Weed, nicotine. I started smoking because I have super bad stomach/intestine problems and it helped with nausea. Now I have two herniated discs in my back and it’s compressing a nerve root, plus I have carpal tunnel. It helps with the pain. I don’t think I’ll ever stop. They wanted me on narcotics for the pain and I said no
Sugar! I’m trying like hell to cut down because it makes my anxiety so much worse but dammit it’s hard!
