Hey I’m new but I’m about to hit my week mark of being sober. I’m very excited trying to be positive about this. It helps to know we are all going through this together. I told my girlfriend about my addiction and how I need help. We kinda broke up for now so I can worry about myself and get this taken care of. It sucks not seeing her but it helps motivate me to be a better man. Porn has ruined the way I look at sex. To be honest i don’t really get turned on by my girlfriend because I need to porn to do that. And I hate that. I want to rewire my brain and not feel so detached from her. Anyways I’m fighting hard and trying to work out more. Keeping busy has been the key for me. It’s hard when you have dreams about it all the time though. Anyways I hope we can all beat this together.
Great job on 1 week! I’m 3 days sober from alcohol and pills, and I really find staying busy help to keep my mind off it. Even just doing chores around the house helps. Keep up the good work!
Hola jordan, cuida mucho tu relacion con tu novia.
Yo llevo año y medio lamentando haber roto un matrimonio de 20 años, todo por culpa de este habito que durante muchos años ha desestabilizado mi vida.
La soledad es muy dura, y mas para personas como nosotros.
Son muchas las lagrimas que han acompañado mi soledad.
Mucho animo, se que lo podras lograr.
Siento escuchar acerca de su hermano matrimonio … Aprecio el estímulo y estoy luchando duro! Oigo después de 60 días que el cerebro puede curarse a sí mismo de querer mirar porno. Estoy disparando por eso a punto de golpear el día 10. mantenerme informado sobre su progreso! ¡Buena suerte!
Te cuento que estoy feliz porque el dia de ayer complete una semana de sobriedad…Voy por la siguiente meta, que son dos semanas.
Me gustaria que me compartieras mas informacion sobre ese dato del cerebro y los 60 dias, seria genial!!!
Awesome! It’s great that you realize the affect it’s having on you and your girlfriend.
My BF stopped watching open several months ago and while there are other things for us to work on, our connection and even the quality of sex for us has improved so much you can’t even compare.
He also used SMART recovery worksheets and found them very helpful.
Great work!
Hey man I struggle with the same thing, but I want to support you! You are created to love and be loved(feeling I should say that)
I’m at day 23 now. Lately for some reason it has been really hard… Its hard to beat something that is becoming more and more popular in society as I’m sure you know. I just went and saw a movie and it had naked women all over it which didn’t help haha. (Idk if that counts as a reset or not) but I’m still steadfast in beating it. I guess if its getting harder must mean I’m doing something right? Anyways thanks for the support! Keep me posted on your progress as well! Good luck!
