Men's issues
I was addicted to porn for 9 years.
When I say porn ruins young men's lives, I speak from experience.
This is what it did to my life:

I first saw soft porn on a wallpaper app on an iPod touch.
I was 9 years old then.
By age 14 I watched porn every day. If not multiple times per day.
Age 16 I realized I had a problem.
At age 17 I tried to quit.
I let porn control my life for far too long.

I had terrible separation anxiety as a kid.
It turned into social anxiety when I reached high school.
I was scared of what other people thought of me.
Especially women.
Porn ruined my self-esteem and confidence and all throughout high school I suffered because of it.

I would freeze up whenever I talked to women.
And everything had to be just right for me to approach them.
(Which I did maybe 3 times.)
I was bad with women.
Yet a horrible simp for them.
All thanks to porn.

I suffered from something I can only describe as a type of body dysmorphia.
I would compare myself to the male pornstars I saw in videos.
I was obsessed with looking as good as possible.
Yet... I looked like that.

In high school I did start lifting weights.
I went from 126 lbs to 156 lbs.
(I'm 5'10")
A lot of arm and chest days, not enough leg days.
I wanted to become as attractive as possible. Hoping it would cure my anxiety.
It didn't.

Porn ruined my ability to attach to people.
My anxious and avoidant attachment styles made it hard for me to pursue women.
And whenever I was close to a girl I liked, I would self-sabotage it.
Nobody taught me otherwise.

In 2018 I got into my first relationship.
She liked me. Someone told me she liked me. Then I started liking her.
I was starved of affection. Of course I latched onto the first woman who showed me any.
She was 20. I was 18.

"You are what you attract"
My brokeness drew in her brokeness.
Our relationship was not healthy.
I entered the relationship weighing 156 lbs.
9 months later when she broke up with me I weighed 138 lbs.
I was in a bad place.

Before the relationship I watched porn.
During the relationship I watched porn.
After the break up I watched even more porn.
You can see it in my eyes.

During our relationship I became addicted to nicotine vapes.
After the break-up I got hooked on even stronger ones.
My second addiction began (and my life spiraled even further out of control).

My second addiction began (and my life spiraled even further out of control).
After the break-up I was heart broken.
All of my worst fears - letting someone in and having them abandon me - came to be.
I was chronically stressed.
And OCD symptoms I suffered from were at their worst.
You can see it on my face. I held so much inside me.

A new chapter began in 2019.
I was tired of being the victim.
Time had passed and I knew I wanted a new relationship one day.
So I got back in the gym.
I picked up more hours at my job.
And I started hanging out with new people.
But I was still watching porn.

I had to learn how to deal with that stress and my anxiety.
Otherwise it would keep ruining my life.
In 2019 she broke up with me.
But in July 2019 I broke my porn addiction.
Then in January 2020 I watched porn for the last time.

Quitting porn (for me) wasn't easy.
What started at age 17 took almost 3 years to quit.
It got worse along the way. Which made it harder and harder.
If I knew what I know now about quitting...
I would have been off in 31 days.
(That's how fast my clients quit porn.)

But what people don't know...
Is after I quit porn I picked up smoking weed.
And I was still addicted to nicotine.
In January 2020 it was a few nights per week. Maybe just the weekends.
By April 2020 I fell asleep high every single night.
This did NOT help my anxiety.

In November 2021 my weed use was causing nightly panic attacks.
I didn't want to quit but my body demanded I did.
So I quit cold turkey.
The next month was some of the worst anxiety I ever experienced.
But nothing compared to the weed panic attacks.

When I quit weed I set out to quit nicotine.
February 4th I decided to quit nicotine.
I used all of the strategies I teach my clients to quit porn.
In 7 days my nicotine addiction was broken.
Now I am 100% sober and 100% better.

I mean this when I say this:
Breaking an addiction is the best change you can put yourself through.
If you want to change your life, quit porn, quit weed, quit nicotine, what it is...
And after you break free...

Start eating healthy.

It took me from July 2019 to February 2022 to lay the foundation.

Keep seething, coomers.
You'd be happier porn-free, but I remember how delusional I was when I used it.
You'll wake up one day.
