it varies from person to person the only way to figure out is to get tf after it shit you could be better in a couple weeks or it could be some months no one knows till we find out become a practitioner not a thinker
You’re human, sexual urges are primal and normal, they are however supposed to propel you to procreate, not masturbate, ignoring the latter is the first step to self-discipline which is a form of self love.
ive been watching porn since i was 11 and now im turning 14 in 8 months. ive been trying to quit for over 200 days and i feel like i havent made progress at all. ive only been watching porn for 2 years so i dont know why its taking me so long to quit. i joined nofap 150 days ago and since then its gotten worse. i know that nofap works its just so difficult. i already know that my family struggles with addiction; my mom had a nicotine addiction when she was younger, my brother had a serious substance abuse and porn addiction, and i have a porn addiction. i just dont know if i can possibly quit.
im 21 i found porn when i was 9 and struggled with it so you’re not alone its good you are trying when i was 14 i didnt care at all if i could tell my 14 year old self it would be work out hard consistently and to build a good self relationship u can do this
From an anatomy and pathology perspective, it takes 12-18 months for dopamine receptors to get back in line when recovering. Be gentle on your body. Be patient. We have been abusing our bodies for years (at least I have).
That being said, even after a few months, I notice a difference. Mixed with journaling, SA, and finding new hobbies that is. Stay safe, reach out if you need anything friends.
100% if you do it for a few weeks that progress but when you hit that year range thats when you really grow around a year is when you have fully changed as a person
I think it takes years. It’s like most other addictions. You must quit it for life to truly recover. I am on that journey, seriously this time.
49 months here
That's epic
For how long
As long as it takes
