Porn is the New Drug

My Secret Struggle

---

I started watching porn when I was 13.

7 years Later I am still trying to get out of it.

I don’t know about other people out there but I came to know about sex through porn.

I know watching others having sex is not a moral thing still I couldn’t stop it.

I am not writing to get sympathized from other people

I am writing this because I desperately want to get out of it.

I feel tremendously lost after watching others having sex.

I feel like I have committed some crime.

I feel like I am not worthy of finding love.

I feel like I materialize women.

But I don’t want to feel these things because these feelings make me worthless and meaningless.

We live in this world to find something which gives us the purpose and makes our lives meaningful.

If I am watching porn it means I don’t have any meaning or I am not taking my life as a serious thing.

I heard a quote from a book “The search for Meaning” which sits right in this situation

The quote :

“A man without purpose distract himself with pleasure”

If anyone out there undergoing this terrible thing, don’t worry man we could beat this Addiction by following some steps.

Now you will be like ‘How can you give us a solution if you still hadn’t figured it out?’

Actually I have tried different things for past 7 years and I should say that few things have really worked out for me.

But because of Lack of Discipline I couldn’t stick with it.

so Let me tell you what are the steps I have followed before to get out of the porn Addiction

1. Set a Task with deadline.

2. Fill up your Time slots.

3. Have a regular sleep routine.

Let’s Discuss the benefits of one by one

---

1. Set a Task with Deadline

Here Task should be about learning something, for example learning Web development with in next 6 months.

This would give you a purpose to focus on something and spend your time in a good way.

Builds discipline which is most important thing to master here.

You could take any task or a job the person who is disciplined enough to stick for a long run wins the game

Discipline is tortoise way of racing

Don’t care about what happens to you or surroundings

Just keep moving

But it doesn’t mean you should move slowly you could increase and decrease the Intensity according to your wish

The thing I am trying to convey here is Move!

It doesn’t matter how fast or slow.

The Aim is to get out of this Bullshit.

2. Fill up your Time slots.

This One could really play a major role in resisting yourself from going to Incognito tab

Because If you are busy the Whole day you wouldn’t have time to get distracted.

so Fill up your calendar and plan what you are going to do on the particular day before that day begins.

This could keep mind clear so that you could just do the work you have planned instead of thinking what you are going to do?

3.Have a regular sleep routine

Sleep is where our metabolism slows down and our brain gets time to refresh ,assume it has restarting a computer

so yes, I always felt like sleep as restarter for our brain.

Because after a good sleep I get a immense satisfaction and pure energy passing through my body.

so to add on to the list Journaling could be good habit to put down your thoughts so that your brain could feel free.

Hey Guys, this particular newsletter could seem more about me than sharing values because I got fed up trying to quit porn so I just wanna share it online so that I could remember this whenever I try to go incognito next time.
