Addiction

>>35779892
Fapping, Wish I never started, yet then again I don't

Sugar. Sugar. Sugar. That's what I'm addicted. Now, you might be thinking "well just stop eating sweets and other sugary food". And you know what? You're right. But I don't even have the willpower to do that. It's sad, isn't it?

>>35779892

literally 4chan, I just spend all day on here and freak out when my internet goes down

Masturbation and 4chan.
Its a wonderful life.

I'm addicted to porn. As a young buck, my porn use was normal, I'd think. I could watch porn and still want to fuck the girls I went to school with. Then I graduated, wasn't in school or going to work, and I'd spend all day in bed jacking it. Now normal women don't turn me on anymore. The only women who get me going are women in porn.

It kills my motivation. I'll wake up with a mind full of ideas and be in the mood to do something productive with the day I've been blessed with but I'll think "let me bust this nut first"

Hit up daftsex or spankbang and my mind goes right to "Ah, I'll do that shit tomorrow" "what's wrong with spending the day in bed? I work hard, I deserve it"

It's gotten worse recently as well. I've always been a pretty weird guy when it came to the types of porn I watched but more than half the time, I was watching "normal" shit, the porn you find on xvideos. Now everything I get off to is weird. Even if I start off with the normal shit, by the end of my session (which is usually a few hours long) I'm back on the weird shit.

I really need to stop.

That picture is what I hate most about my life. I look out the window and everyone's living. I torture myself by getting on social media sites and watching everyone I graduated with surpassing me in every way. Even the people who everyone thought weren't gonna be shit. And I'm here, in my room, with my dick in my hand.

I'm 21 and haven't even had sex before. It doesn't bother me most days but sometimes it just pops up into my head and I get this sharp pain in my stomach.

Wtf am I doing

>>35780710
>21

you are too young to be worried. Get out there and live your life.

I'm an alcoholic and I can't control myself after a few drinks. I go on auto pilot and drink till I pass out, remembering nothing. Usually do something embarassing like drunk dial my whole contacts list (which is all family)

>>35780710

if it's any consolation the average persons life is fucking horrible and they spend all day in a state of constant anxiety worrying about money and repressing memories of childhood abuse

I'm a recovering alcoholic. 1513 days sober.

If I stop watching it, I get very aggressive and depressed.
My fiance thinks I have stopped completely.
Have to keep it up to stop myself getting angry and the truth spilling out
It's tough being a complete and utter mug in my youth and just wanking away my future sex drive...

Sex / Masturbation / Porn

I've been addicted to porn since I was a teenager, since the first time I had depression. As soon as I got my own computer, I instantly had a double life. I consumed an ungodly amount of early 2000's internet porn. The shame. The isolation, all that. Way worse in college. I fucked up college because I couldn't handle stress. I would resort to porn. All the time. I created a dependence. I would rub one out, release some dopamine, and repeat.

It took me way too long to realize it was truly an addiction. I was abusing porn the way people abuse drugs. Same thing.

desu Getting better now though. I started exercising.

>>35780739
Thanks senpai. It's really relieving for someone to tell me something like that, especially when I feel like I've wasted a lot of my youth already. But I guess 21 isn't really old at all.

>>35779892
porn alcohol and crunchy snacks.

My life is fucked. Mostly due to the crunchy snacks.

>>35780961
How are you getting better? Do you have a smartphone? How do you not look at porn when you have a smartphone? It's like walking around with a suitcase full of an infinite amount of heroin needles while trying to get off of heroin.

>>35780839
congratulations. ill have a drink in your honor.

>i am not an alcoholic i swear
does 5 shots of vodka in an hour of waking up make me an alchy?

There's just so much good porn out there, I don't know what to do with myself. Of course I'd rather have the real thing but fuck, that takes way more effort than typing in a name.

>>35780668
This is me too. Trying to quit alcohol. Internet's the next one. I like smoking too much to think about quitting.

Sex, I would constantly be looking for sex and going out. I was having sex multiple times a day and constantly sitting on tinder. It's not as good as people think.

>>35779892
I really really like DPH and just came off of a 2 day binge, 600mg for the first day and 1000mg for the second.

I have seen some shit boys.

interracial porn

>threesomes

>creampie
>blacked
>nasty facefucks
>piss
>ass to mouth
>gaping
>breeding

if it is interracial then I love jerking to it. especially gangbangs desu. it has definitely affected my life for the worse I'd say. I can't seem to overcome it no matter how much I tried in the past. so I basically just accept it and fap long hours a day whenever I am free to do so.

of course I would prefer being in a relationship or having an easier time with girls but I do have trust issues with girls that holds me back.

you guys can say what you want about me but I've come to find out many guys are addicted to this porn to so it isn't just me. I would appreciate any advice on overcoming my addiction but I've tried before as I said.

>>35781000
Deleting my apps. Looking at my phone as a practical device, in general cutting my use a lot.

Obv i would consume a lot of porn at night via smart phone. But desu weed helps. A strong indica makes me comfy and content, not itching to grab my phone / my dick.

Keeping myself busy is important. Having something to be passionate about, even something small or nerdy, keeps my mind focused.

Sugar and Video Games are the big ones. They help me escape this wretched fucking existence.

>>35781033
Lol. Do you do that more than 2 times a week? Then yes, almost definitely.

I can't believe there was ever a time that I believed I didn't have an addictive personality. All these years I've just been doing with online message boards, porn and now actual prostitutes what my friends were doing with drugs, alcohol and cigarettes. No one ever seems to mention more obscure, abstract addictions like the ones I'm suffering from, but I'd argue that they're far more dangerous mentally and financially than those normie addictions. Since going to escorts, I've basically stopped trying with women and I can tell that it's had an impact on my mind in a general sense. It's as if I don't try as hard as I used to in a wider context. I don't think as hard, I give in to my impulses quicker, I belittle myself more. It's like I've been slowly destroying myself from within and it's only now that it's too late that I've become aware of the fact.

I've been on the path to recovery, though. I've found that hanging out with friends and keeping myself busy cuts down my time spent on the internet and subsequently reduces my urge to look for porn or hire escorts. Obviously, I'm just as unfortunate with women as I've always been, but I'm happier.

>>35781171
I'm not doctor, but the way I look at it, you have to start getting dopamine from regular, healthy sources, instead of abusing it like a drug. (1) Pick up a hobby, and (2) Exercise. These two things keep me occupied lately, and over the past year I've cut my addition by a lot.

Nobody wants to hear it, but fucking EXERCISE

>>35781345
>that I have an addictive personality
I meant to type that I do not have an addictive personality

I'm addicted to soda.

Will never even take one sip of alcohol for this reason.

>>35781376

believe it or not I actually do exercise. in fact I used to exercise a lot even though for years now I don't as well as I used to.

I can assure you that was of no help for me. however I do feel you are right about the dopamine thing.

I do have another related issue though. just didn't want to say earlier since I didn't want to make the post too long. the fantasy is so strong for me that I'm looking at girls no matter where I go and fantasizing about them fucking this way to. pic related for example.

so what does this mean? even if I go to lets say a /b/ wwyd or post your hot friends thread I look at those girls and imagine them doing you know what. of course I would want to fuck them to though don't get me wrong.

>>35781207

>>35779892
>Is there anything you're addicted to?

Caffeine and masturbation. Like, chronic masturbation. I have a subscription to Bateworld. Really into gooning and all that shit. Every detail about male masturbation is in itself sexually arousing, even the idea of helping other guys masturbate, or masturbating in front of them for their own gratification.

It's hard to quantify my sexual orientation, if I really even have one. I have no interest in relationships or actual sex. There's only my avid obsession with male masturbation.

I'm addicted to the chase of getting girls and conquering them sexually, I strive to have sex every single day , and I hop from girl to girl very frequently, I've had sex with over 80 girls in my life and I can't see it stopping anytime soon

>>35780591
>Now everything I get off to is weird

Just wait until you graduate to gay porn. It's going to be terrific, Anon. Believe me. And no, I'm not talking about traps and shit. I mean real men getting it on. Guilty / shameful orgasms are the best. Just make sure not to close the tabs when you're done. It's much better to revel in your degeneracy after you've done your deed.

Fap and sugar. I wish I stopped craving sugar the most.

>>35780021
How often do you fap?

I fap once every night. Am I addicted?

Lol nigga gay porn is old news. I have a folder on my iPhone browser called "I'm not gay" full of gay porn bookmarks. I jack off to it at night and wake up and see it the next day and feel disgusted.

I'm most curious about what sub-genres of gay porn you've fapped to. I'm currently on non-BDSM domination, like guys spitting and pissing into each other's mouths before sucking each other off and having sloppy make-out sessions where their spit and piss and cum are all drooling from their mouths.

Weed.

It's true. I smoke all day everyday and can't stand to be sober. I know I'm numbing the pain of 22 years of loneliness and rejection but weed is literally my only lifeline allowing me to make it through another day. I'm coughing up phlegm and my place smells like shit, I'm always broke but when I'm high I'm happy.

Haha what a bunch of sick disgusting faggots you two are. I've been watching porn for over 10 years and no matter how degenerate I got I never wanted to watch gay porn.

Beer and clonazepam
Drank 1 bottle of beer and 8mg of clonazepam. Feels fucking great.
I do it often when I don't have to work.

>>35779892
depression
I take drugs and drink, but only occasionally and spend 95% of my time sober. But if I go on antidepressants or mood altering prescription drugs, and actually feel not sad and shitty all the time, I don't feel like myself. Like I'm living in someone else's skin with the ghost of the person who is supposed to be here just out of reach.

>>35782598
Yeah I can't watch all that because when I see too much of the man's face, I feel shame and disgust.

I see that you're trying to show me that you're into worse shit but really, I've seen worse than what you've described.

I want to stop the porn. I know it's fucking me up but it's hard because I can't fucking ignore my sex drive.

>>35783439
Are you as degenerate as the gay guys? If not then you are in a lot better position you know. Also if you are young then that explains your sex drive.

>>35783491
>Are you as degenerate as the gay guys?
I'm not sure what you mean. Am I kissing other men with piss and cum in my mouth? No. Have I jacked off to things worse than that? Yes. I'm still pretty young but I feel like a sex drive was supposed to drive you to have sex, not to watch strange, extreme porn.

I really want to fuck a normal fucking girl but I can't find the motivation to do it. Put in all the work to find one, then hope she's attracted to me, then take her on dates and shit and fail horribly when trying to have sex for the first time.

Porn is so much easier. And I'm not sure I'll ever get a girl to do the things the girls in my porn do. I'm not even sure if I'd want to.

>>35783558
If you are watching gay porn that means you want men not women. So why are you even concerned with getting a gf?

Also don't even tell us what this so called extreme porn you keep telling us about is. I'm pretty sure I know what you mean and I'd rather not hear about it since you aren't even special among all these sick fucks on here.

I swear I don't know how so many of you guys don't recognize that you have to limit yourselves when it comes to porn. You wouldn't rob a bank so why watch sick shit just because you feel safe behind that computer?

>>35783712
I want a gf because my use of gay porn is more about novelty and shock than it is attraction. If I pay too much attention to the guys face, I get grossed out.

I grew up jacking off to the thought of the girls I went to school with. I remember being in my overcrowded middle school trying to touch a girl's ass in the hallway without her knowing it was me.

I never thought about men. I still don't think about men. I don't fantasize about fag shit.

And the sick shit you know I'm watching, I don't like that either. I realized it in the past few days. It's actually really fucking weird to see and I'm kinda forcing myself to jack off to it. The orgasm isn't even good anymore. It's disgusting.

>>35784053

guy who has the interracial porn addiction here.

crazy enough I am way more addicted now then I was back then. at least back then I had more going on in my life and school to keep me occupied. I also wasn't neck deep into my fetish yet.

>>35784430
Is that crazy? I think it makes sense that the more you indulge in something, the more addicted you get.

>>35784510
well I always used to see or hear about how teens have crazy high sex drives because of hormones.

so somewhere around my early-mid 20's I actually started to use a lot less porn. then I eventually started to use far more porn. much more so than even as a teen. I think this site has contributed to fucking me up a bit though. too much damn porn is posted and it is hard to avoid.

if you browse here daily you are constantly going to see hot girls or hot porn. back then I wasn't ever browsing sites like this or even anything close besides shitty sites from back then.

Cigarettes and Alcohol mostly.

I did quite a bit of drugs when I was young but none of them really compared to Alcohol. Never liked being high on marijuana, it makes me too lazy and I always end up falling asleep a couple hours after smoking it.

I don't have the time to do Psychedelics anymore, and imo the long-term effects of taking them aren't really worth the fucked up experiences you get (inb4 psychs are the safest drug, tell me that when you have to deal with early on-set schizophrenia or drug-induced derealization). If I had the time I'd try Shrooms a few more times but that's about it.

Anything "harder" than that as far as drugs go aren't worth the trouble. Overdosing on prescription benzos and shit like that is fun but the come down is fucked and they can be addictive, etc.

so then it circles back to Alcohol. It's easily accessible, legal, and gives a great buzz/intoxication. I'm not sure why drugs are even relevant when you can just get shitfaced.

Call me crazy but it looks to me like barely any people here got any actual assistance from anybody in the thread. You know considering that this was one of the points of OP's thread in the first place.

I got a 4chan addiction. How do I stop that?

You wanna trade? I'm like you, but I'm more introverted so I'm like a spider and fly when it comes to sex. I wont really hunt you, but if you get caught in the web its fucking over.

Moderate, functioning alcoholism here. I don't get drunk every night but I do feel the need to drink every night. The amount of alcohol I consume and the frequency with which I consume it has definitely taken a toll on my health.

I'm 23, about to start a serious job so I am telling myself I am going to quit when my work begins. There just won't be enough time in the day for me to get drunk and sit around on the computer, besides, I'll be naturally tired.

I also used to be addicted to adderall. Glad I kicked that, although I will probably never be as sharp/mentally quick as when I was on it. Problem was that I was paranoid, irritable, and spent tons of time thinking/working on useless things. Like, for example, I would spend hours on end copying passages from books into my computer. I guess that's not totally useless, but everything I was doing was too intensely theoretical. Eventually it caught up to me that I was wasting my youth in a hermetic obsession and I started to get crippling anxiety.

>but u can't be addicted 2 da internet anon :))))))

An addiction is where you can't go a single day, or even a few hours, without something.

It's also bad for your physical & mental health.

Last but not least, it prevents you from functioning properly in society and having a normal life.


Pretty much everyone here is addicted to the internet.

Also caffeine/energy drinks, as well as weed.

>>35786788
>Also caffeine/energy drinks, as well as weed.

I should point out that I WAS addicted, but quit those, as well as cigarettes.

The hardest to quit was energy drinks by far.

>>35786581
Pfft. Opiates are the best. Nothing bad about them. The only nasty one is fentanyl.

If opiates were legal and pure, noone would ever OD.

Very nice trips.

I get this, I never went down the gay porn hole; but I beat it to a lot of strange things (the idea/watching people being asphyxiated, people fucking food or trees, the thought of being kidnapped and tortured) really demented shit that I don't find appealing in any way that exists outside of masturbation sessions or and would never want to live out.

I can't fully explain it, and the orgasms aren't good... but I think that's more about depression. Either way, the idea that watching gay porn = you want to have sex with men is not an a to b kind of connection, the concept is reductive and incorrect.

I'm quitting too and 2 weeks on withdraw. Am I supposed to be getting ticks, and muscle jolting? It's preventing me from sleeping at night, and during the day it's hard to concentrate. How did you guys manage?

>>35787844
Also, used to take xans for the comedown. Nowadays I feel like a zombie, and tend to give into urges more. I feel like I'm in a dream or a video game of some sort. I start thinking about thinking and also feel like I'm shifting through different levels of consciousness. Anyone known this feel? When dose it stop?

>>35786834

Sure if your 5% of the people that I ever saw try them not get some type of addiction issue.

And most people are doing vicoden or even OC's anymore, they're doing U47, Fu/Bu/Acetyl-Fentanyl with maybe some #3 mixed in because of the cost.

I smoked weed every single day pretty much for 5 years up until a month ago and finally I have started to quit. I still have a tiny bit left and I vape once a night a few nights per week but even then I don't feel good when doing it any more and I just get insanely paranoid

I drink too much beer than is good for me but I don't touch any other alcohol and I haven't had more than 4 or 5 beers in a night in a long time

I masturbate to diaper porn everyday though. That one is tough to beat because outside of it I don't really feel any sexual urges. I doubt I could get off to straight sex.

Flesh. I know it's the worst thing you can eat, but the cravings...
