To Quit Porn, Change Your Beliefs!

We usually use our willpower and self-control to quit porn. Some of us have greater willpower and hence, are able to abstain for a longer period of time.

However, there are many people who have relapsed after a year or two.

Why did they relapse after such a long period of time? If they abstained for such a long period of time, that itself proves that they do not lack willpower and self-control! Then, where is the problem?

The answer is: BELIEF.

To quit porn forever, you must give up false beliefs. We continue to hold some wrong beliefs even while abstaining from porn.

When we are abstaining from porn, we don't feel we are liberated. Instead, we think we are missing something. We believe we are sacrificing something. We believe we are not getting pleasure which porn users are getting.

All these are false beliefs. In fact, porn does not give you pleasure. Porn makes you desire more porn. It makes you lose interest in other activities.

Porn is addiction (dopamine addiction, to be specific). Productive activities release dopamine in lesser quantities. Hence, you find them boring.

So, when you are not watching porn, you are NOT missing anything and you are NOT sacrificing anything. You are liberating yourself.

I'll suggest reading The Book To Quit Porn or The Easy Peasy Way to Quit Porn to get rid of false beliefs.

Liberate yourself from the porn trap. Do not look at porn users with envy. Look at them with pity and help them to get out of the trap.

Porn addiction isn't a choice. You didn't choose that you will watch porn everyday and destroy your life. You became its slave. You regret everytime you relapse. It's time you liberate yourself from this.

When you abstain from watching porn, you get withdrawal pangs. You watch porn because you believe that it's the cure of these withdrawal pangs. However, you are getting withdrawal pangs because you are addicted to porn. Those who don't watch porn, never get these. Porn is the cause, not the cure. The cure is NoFap (abstinence from porn and masturbation).

Has there ever been a time that you didn't regret after relapsing? But why could you not stop yourself from watching? It's because you were brainwashed by your dopamine addiction. You never wanted to watch porn. Your dopamine addiction did.

You do not like porn. Your addiction does. You are not your addiction. It's time to attain freedom.

Your dopamine addiction will always misguide you. It will tell you that it's okay to peek. It will try to mislead you by saying this is the last time. It will try to convince you that it's okay to masturbate just this time.

Do not let it misguide you. Do not argue with it. Your dopamine addiction does not understand logic and reason.

Please read The Book To Quit Porn or The Easy Peasy Way to Quit Porn to defeat your addiction.

When you understand the nature of your addiction and learn to ignore it, you will never watch porn again. You will never masturbate again. You will never peek or edge again. You will never be misguided by your addiction again. Your addiction will be powerless. It will completely disappear with time. You will recover very fast. All withdrawal pangs will go away with time.

2021-10-04 23:17:39 A SHORT MESSAGE FOR THOSE WHO RECENTLY RELAPSED :

Hold your head up high. You are not dead yet nor have you committed a heinous crime.
But you inflicted serious self damage on yourself.
Luckily it can be healed and quick recovery is possible.

Most people don't even acknowledge their 'journey started'
Don't give another half hearted attempt with new streak now!
But you're commited this time more than ever, aren't you?
Congrats, you've already decided to make amends and your integrity would be tested over time.

NO overthinking
Journalling today/tomorrow :
Before you start your streak again, suggested questions to self (write on paper or in your TG saved messages) :
Why did I Relapse?(learn and don't repeat)
Why am I doing NoFap?
What would happen if I keep on relapsing?

Do NOT fall into guilt trap today!
Drink plenty of water
Eat a nutritive meal
Listen to soft instrumentals
MUST sleep/nap whatever time of the day it might be
You must already be tired from the acts of today.
Rest you must so that you could Re-start better, stronger tomorrow!
Forgive yourself this very last time! Never look back!
Lessons must be learnt and must be remembered!
Now take care ओपन / कमेंट
