What Porn Taught Me

Community topics: 

I'm officially starting my reboot over today with a stricter attitude. I'll still be having sex with the girlfriend infrequently (and that's fine... if I notice it causes any flashbacks or anything I'll try and cut down even more)... I can't yet orgasm anyways so there's no worries of that happening at the moment. One thing I've done lately is tend towards more gentle sex... and overall it feels more fulfilling. I always found those scenes of passion in movies boring... must be what porn taught me.

25 years old, male and struggling

I have been addicted to internet porn and masturbation for as long as I can remember, I think it was since I was 15. It just started over normal porn (penetration and straight porn mainly), nothing deviant, extreme or of a fetish nature, but over the years i developed a taste for more fetish/extreme material, particularly lesbian porn with an anal/domination theme - analingus, face-sitting and anal penetration by one of the girls, usually the dominatrix.

sexual attraction vs sexual arousal?

Okay this is where my therapist really got me confused. What is the difference between these two terms? I know what sexual arousal is....it is when my wee wee gets hard. But what does sexual attraction mean? If sexual arousal = sexual attraction...that must mean I am sexually attracted to porn.

Article - Why the Lack of Libido?

I thought this article might be of interest to you guys, so I translated it:

More and more people, single or in relationships, are seeking professional help over this reason

Here's something I came across that I found intriguing. A couple of articles on computer generated female models for a clothing firm. If you look at the pictures carefully, you'll notice that their body postures are identical.

14 days no PMO - 13 years of habit

I'm almost at two weeks of abstinence.
A little bit of background on me: I'm almost 31 years old and I'm a professional in a field that provides social services to others in need and I have access to research materials that have helped me in choosing to pursue this as a means with dealing with what I consider to be an impulse control disorder and/or addiction.

Repost as a blog.

So i'm going to re-post my first post but this time in my blog and then continue updating from here. This is it:

Hello people!

Well, i've been reading blog entries and posts from multiple users for weeks now. At first i didn't really want to share my story, I thought it was unnecessary since there are already a lot. But maybe my story can help others, who are new into this, or who can relate to it. Or it can help myself. So here it goes.

87 Days? Make it 365.. it's all the same from here on.

Ah, I can't believe I'm finally doing this, something I've been wanting to do for a long time. I don't know where to start. My journey here wasn't an easy one, but it sure wasn't expected. smiley

I will kick this thing for good.

This is my first blog post here. I relapsed yesterday. It felt bad. Real bad. It was on day 21, a personal record for me. But I didn't feel proud, not one bit. After 2+ weeks of not ejaculating I was quite pumped up. I was feeling uber confident, completely uncaring of what others thought of me. My libido was high, my mood was consistent. I was exercising harder than I ever had before. I was being more "alpha" than I ever was. My confidence got a bit too high in fact, I was getting cocky. I started looking at things like bikini pictures, and other "soft" erotic material.

Anybody heard of No-Fap October?

Well, October is starting tomorrow, and I've been seeing this challenge popping up around the internet. I'm assuming we are all trying to recover here, I've personally been at it for about 2 months, although I've relapsed probably every 2-3 weeks on average. I just messed up earlier today, on day 21, which was my longest current streak. After 1-2 weeks of not masturbating and viewing porn I feel massively good effects, but I've never managed to breakthrough to that 60-90 days you need for a full reboot. If you're in the same boat as me sign up for the challenge, NO FAP OCTOBER.
