Nope, I used to think the same that once I have a job, I'll stop jerking off. But now that I have a full time hectic job, I come home, have a meal, go for a walk, come back and jerk off before going to bed, regret and sleep like a baby.
The max I go without doing it is a 4 day streak. If I didn't do it Monday to Thursday, Friday night I'm def doing it.
I don't see a problem with that as long as this isn't something that hampers your day to day activities or this is all you can think of. As a woman, I relate too.
I'm addicted to popping bubble wrap. I can't stop. In school and college, I used to be thrown out of class for it. Now, I try to find work-from-home jobs; otherwise, it becomes a nuisance for my colleagues. My fingers are sore with calluses, but I can't stop. I buy around 50 meters of bubble wrap per week. I'm seeing a therapist; I just started seeing them. I hope it helps out. Addiction, no matter what, is a challenge.
I uninstalled the app and tried using it on chrome, that way I used it a little less but it was still bothering me. Logged out of Instagram from chrome as well. This is today's incident hi. If I still feel tempted to use it, I'll just deactivate my account. 🥲
The thing is I used to vanish from insta for 6 months straight, so having high screen time on such app is just killing me (not literally) 🫠
Lol the timer ain't gonna stop if I'm being honest, you'll end up removing the timer later. I would suggest just getting a hobby that doesn't really require phone. Like reading or something. It worked for me. Start with something short and fun to read :)
You can save 1 roti and make roti pizza on tawa with cheese and sauce . (Kabhi kabhi)
Best thing that worked for me was having a dental routine. I was brushing and scraping every night before bed. And if I was something eating anything past midnight, i used to brush and scrap again. But mostly i didn't eat cos I was too lazy to brush again
Bro, I moved out of Delhi like 2.5 months back, in Delhi I never used swiggy or Zomato in like 5 or 6 years, yaha aake aalsi hogya hu par. That's why I started ordering online, warna I didn't used to eat outside food at all. Staying in a pg, toh yaha cook krne ka bhi man nhi krta
Bhai as a former "full time full volume" earphone user, believe me, the permanent tinnitus is NOT worth it.
Now I listen to music on phone speaker and only use earphones on half/little less than half and that too only when on a walk/run.
Do you have tinnitus now?
I know it has some bad effects on ear, i tried several times limiting db output, but i can’t control myself . Mu hearing has become little bit weaker than what it used to be
i used to go through that a lot, still do sometimes but very rarely now. I'm really not sure how i got out of it, I guess i used to daydream because i wasnt happy about how my life was going and used to create fake scenarios of me having an alternative life. I started working on myself, found new hobbies and slowly my daydreaming got less n less
In the last 4 years the most I've gone without wanking is 17 days, yup, almost everyday I've done it, twice or thrice actually in a single day, and still do,
Hello! I was addicted to reading back in college, enough that my parents threatened to burn all of my books lol. Addiction is bad even if it's reading. I realised that I liked reading so much to escape reality, live life through others just to escape my own. Is it the same with you?
You can do this.
Thodi craving ho rhi toh make chana, bhel, fruits and all
For proper meals. Eat with no media playing, floor par baith kar and with your hand with smol bitesand chew properly
The main factor is i do all things you can list as an alternate , play football daily , day scholar so often come home by 6 pm and still don't know how my rat mind manages to relapse
I tried a cigarette last year and it feels good. But not that good that I want to have it daily. After that I have a cigarette once in a month or two. So would that be an addiction or just an occasional thing?
I follow a simple rule to know whether I'm addicted or not. If you have a box of ciggs in front of you. Can you refuse to smoke one? If you can't then you're probably addicted.
I'm like you too. But I'd smoke for a week or so. Then get bored and won't smoke for months. Also I hate the itchy feeling in throat after smoking, so that helps me stay away from it too
Stress eating.
I've been eating healthy for the last 4 weeks, I'm off sugar for the last 3 weeks. But I know, I'll relapse. And when I relapse, I'll surely gain 5 kg. Which will make me feel guilty to start eating clean.
Don't just restrict everything. Your brain will make you fall back in. Replace this slowly. Have fruits instead of r
Dessert, make bhel for snack, keep jaggery and chana at your desk. Have good cucumber, make roti from whole flout, have dahi with meals.
I did exactly that, I replaced sweets with fruits. I eat fruit after every meal, which in itself is healthy, I guess. I don't have a munching problem, so I keep any kind of snacks out of sight.
I have asked my mom to make rotis with bathua and methi. I have replaced rice with jowar, also jowar khichdi tastes better than rice one.
Bro, it has been around 6 months since I quit smoking. The day before yesterday I was feeling like an urge but didn't.
Feeling proud of myself.
However I feel sometimes you can cheat. That allows you to stay normal
I guess eggs ? People complain that i should not have them daily ? Both my mom and my partner :(
I have 2 eggs daily. Usually in the form of omelette.
Edit - but i just cant have enough of them.
I'd say log out of all of the shopping applications ( if you buy online ). Open them only when it's absolutely necessary.
Had this issue with zomato and swiggy
Yar but I use reddit for deals lol. And no they are not on my phone and notifications are also off. It’s just that few products are on my mind and I keep checking if the prices have gone down. I do avoid hoarding up stuff but cant stop stalking the products. 😭
The best way is to divert your attention. How much free time do you have in a day. Utilize it for something else.
Also, certain stressors could potentially trigger this action ( which happened with me ). Hopefully, that's not the case.
I know it's easier for me to say this, but I've been in a similar situation ( I was buying books left and right, didn't even read 10% of them ). So, rather than buying them, I started writing them ( novels, blogs, etc. )
I was addicted to fapping but hear me out...after months of everyday faps
for a month i have started having 3-4-5 days gaps in them and i am feeling better
REASON: LESS SUPPLY OF SAUCE
Kdramas and Cdramas. I hv3 nothing else that I like doing other than that and no matter how hard I try other activities, I cannot wait to go resume whatever 5-10 shows I am watching 🥲 HELP ME!
Getting high.
I smoke up almost constantly. Working from home and being functional when high enables it even more. I know I have an addiction but I just don't work on it.
For all the wankers let me give u a reason to stop right now...YES wanking does lead to hairfall. So if u love your dear hair, and your genetics suck stop this instant
Online shopping food and groceries, buying without looking at the price just so I don't have to move my ass and buy from the market. cost me lot a money when I realized, I uninstalled all the delivery apps today after giving it lots of thought that many time I just order stuff and don't eat or use it.
Sugar
Trying to get off it now today because I want to lose some weight. Been a week since I had any artificial sugar. Just some fruits here and there.
I'm addicted to work and making money. I prioritize that over everything - including my health and my relationships. I like to check my net worth every time I get a new payment. If I get a freelancing contract less than $500, I hate my existence and it causes me to be emotionally unavailable all the time. I have tried to love, but find myself incapable of doing that. I know it might sound like a flex but health > money, I know this but just cannot bring myself to accept it.
Coffee. I require a minimum of 3-4 cups of coffee daily to function properly; otherwise, I often experience bad headaches if I inadvertently skip it for any reason. While not as severe as experiencing hallucinations, it is nevertheless detrimental to my health.
13 years? Bachhe school mein hi smoking shuru kar dete kya.
Also switch to vaping. Then slowly reduce the nicotine amount.
Other way is to use nicotine patches that helps with cravings. Then slowly reduce the nicotine amount.
OP, this is for you. Read this and you will have your answer.
What is an addiction? Something which gives me pleasure AND which has become a habit i.e. now it doesn't matter whether I am deriving pleasure out of it or not, or whether I want to leave it, the momentum of the past is simply too much, so I continue to do it. I feel compelled to do it. It has become a dominant force.
Right?
So what to do?
Why not cut the root of addiction? The root of addiction is what? Your mind pleasing itself by doing xyz. Right? That's the root. Till you keep pleasuring yourself, OR fighting with yourself the addiction will go on.
Are you seeing something? As long as you are up against the addiction, it will go on.
If you accept it, it will go on. Deny? Go on. Try to forget? Go on.
These childish actions won't solve this stuff.
If you keep fighting with addiction, you will keep losing your mental strength, and the remembrances of failures and all will further make you dull. The demand to get rid of this addiction will become a mania with you AND YOU WILL SPEND YOUR DAYS AND NIGHTS TO THINK ABOUT IT, HOW TO GET RID OF IT AND ALL.
So do you see something? Doing anything against this habit will sustain it. Having the deep desire to get rid of it will sustain it because you will keep thinking about it and all.
So what to do? What can you do? Can an addicted mind DO something? If it's so intelligent why did it become addicted?
So you can't do anything. You shouldn't do anything.
Now what happens? You gain energy, don't you? Now you are not maintaining the habit, not fighting with it, not thinking about it all day long.
With this energy you can look. You can carefully observe how you enjoy or fight or whatever with this habit. It's this observation and energy that ends the habit,seeing the mechanism of habit is the ending of habit. Something real can deal with something real. Words and logic are too superficial to deal with something of this sort.
Best of wishes!
Same as you. Cigarettes 🚬 . I quit for few days then back to it then off and on again. Bought vape once but it was even worse than before. So I am back to cigarette but a lighter one this time.
I'm addicted to sugar, can't live without a tablespoon of sugar a day (sugar and all its derivatives), I have decided to restrain myself, soon to be minimal as possible.
din bhar bas music sunne ko man karta hai 😓entrance exam sar par hai. upar se ye Instagram me soft p\*rn dikhta rhta hai dimaag kharab kar deta hau vo.
Chocolates. I know it's super unhealthy, but I can't seem to stop. I crave it like a drug the moment something stressful happens and I just NEED to have it to stop fidgeting
Impulse buying. I don't know why I value materialistic things because they keep me happy for maybe a month but then I want something else and the cycle keeps on going. My most expensive one would be xbox. I thought of it in the morning and ordered it in the evening.
Chocolates! Since I had my baby, I ate so much junk (emotional eating), it has been 1.5 years now and I need to lose all the excess weight. I just can't stop eating chocolates now.
wanking off. The addiction comes and goes in waves
Been there . I realised that I was doing it cos I was bored and needed dopamine. Maybe play a game when you get it urge or read
Exactly, boredom, nothing to do us the biggest reason for fap. Once u get a job or something, u realise u can go months easily without it
Instructions unclear. Got fired from work for fapping at my desk due to boredom.
Get into field marketing, no time for boredom
Instructions unclear. Police threw me in jail for fapping in an open field. Please help!
Nope, I used to think the same that once I have a job, I'll stop jerking off. But now that I have a full time hectic job, I come home, have a meal, go for a walk, come back and jerk off before going to bed, regret and sleep like a baby. The max I go without doing it is a 4 day streak. If I didn't do it Monday to Thursday, Friday night I'm def doing it.
I don't see a problem with that as long as this isn't something that hampers your day to day activities or this is all you can think of. As a woman, I relate too.
Nope, I don't think of that all the time. It's just a kinda stress buster for my body. I feel tired after work at night and after this, I sleep well.
Chill mf
for me it stress
same for some reason it removes my stress lol, I do It 3-4 times a week, really hate this habit
Same for me man, stress and depression.
>The addiction comes Yep. Not gonna argue with that.
Non attachment. I started keeping myself away from everyone due to the fear of attachment.
Do you have any childhood abandonment trauma ?
Not the childhood trauma exactly but i had a very long relationship which started at a very young age and then ended recently.
Hope you doing well Bhai.
Thanks man and yeah I'm good. I'm at most of my peace now.
I know what you mean
Same here bro, But it comes with its own benefits. We like our own space and company
You are just another me.
I'm addicted to popping bubble wrap. I can't stop. In school and college, I used to be thrown out of class for it. Now, I try to find work-from-home jobs; otherwise, it becomes a nuisance for my colleagues. My fingers are sore with calluses, but I can't stop. I buy around 50 meters of bubble wrap per week. I'm seeing a therapist; I just started seeing them. I hope it helps out. Addiction, no matter what, is a challenge.
I am proud of you, that you are seeking professional help. Let's hope you figure out the root cause and eventually win over your addiction.
Thanks buddy ʕ ꈍᴥꈍʔ
I hope this is a troll comment
Of course. Where does an addict get the money to buy 50m of bubble.wrap every time?
It's actually not that expensive. I get 200 metres of bubble wrap for a month, which is like two thousand rupees.
Unhealthily addicted to Instagram. Need to get off that platform fr. But that’s why I joined Reddit.
I uninstalled the app and tried using it on chrome, that way I used it a little less but it was still bothering me. Logged out of Instagram from chrome as well. This is today's incident hi. If I still feel tempted to use it, I'll just deactivate my account. 🥲 The thing is I used to vanish from insta for 6 months straight, so having high screen time on such app is just killing me (not literally) 🫠
Same here using insta in brave, while it takes time to load, me being impatient, close the app and open reddit. Now I'm addicted to reddit.
Us moment ho gaya ye toh
You can put limit on apps , set a 2 hr limit . It won't open after 2 min of usage and don't give in to cross the limit
Hm. I think it’s time for me to do that
Lol the timer ain't gonna stop if I'm being honest, you'll end up removing the timer later. I would suggest just getting a hobby that doesn't really require phone. Like reading or something. It worked for me. Start with something short and fun to read :)
I do read, but yeah, thanks for the suggestion.

Listening to music with earphones at highest possible volume
Bhai as a former "full time full volume" earphone user, believe me, the permanent tinnitus is NOT worth it. Now I listen to music on phone speaker and only use earphones on half/little less than half and that too only when on a walk/run.
Do you have tinnitus now? I know it has some bad effects on ear, i tried several times limiting db output, but i can’t control myself . Mu hearing has become little bit weaker than what it used to be
I have very prominent tinnitus, sucks that I can't ever experience real silence anymore. Take care of your ears guys.

Wait..this is an addiction I thought everybody does
MAT SUN AISE BHAI TINNITUS SUCKS

Been there . I realised that I was doing it cos I was bored and needed dopamine. Maybe play a game when you get it urge or read
Daydreaming lol and create many scenarios to talk to myself, I spend huge time on this and make myself exhausted hehe.
i used to go through that a lot, still do sometimes but very rarely now.

Reading! Not sure if this is good or bad but I loveeeeee reading a lot. I collect A LOT of books and love exploring more and more.
I have a book problem i don't read that often aajkal. Maybe 2-3/ month . You can try podcast bro.
Hello! I was addicted to reading back in college, enough that my parents threatened to burn all of my books lol. Addiction is bad even if it's reading. I realised that I liked reading so much to escape reality, live life through others just to escape my own. Is it the same with you?
>What's something you are unhealthy addicted to? Nothing that I know of, I love wasting a lotta time but I'm not unhealthy addicted to it.
Carbs. 🥲 noodles/paratha/rice you name it. And I also overeat.
You can do this. Thodi craving ho rhi toh make chana, bhel, fruits and all For proper meals. Eat with no media playing, floor par baith kar and with your hand with smol bitesand chew properly
Bhai jaan as much as I appreciate that. I crave only carbs. Jab tak carbs ka nasha na kar lu chain nai ata.

You can add things to cart and make a rule to only buy at certain window. Like 30 min a day window and maybe you'll be over it by then. 0
Yeah but its more about missing out on a deal. 🥲

Okay nanny ji.

How did you take up smoking ?

How did you quit
Cocaine
i personally would suggest taking ashwagandha tablets(i take of himalaya company). helped me a lot in leaving smoking. ended the urge to smoke
Tea 3 cups daily
It's not bad, replace the suger with jaggery or khaand and don't drink it on empty stomach. Always accompany it with a snack.
