How to Quit Porn Addiction for Good (He Is Hero Podcast Ep 79)

Heal your brain from porn in 30 days with my Free Porn Detox Course: https://romanmironov.com/free I know how bad you feel after watching p**n. It makes you feel weak, depressed, lonely, and worthless. Most people try to cure it by playing video games or watching TV but it just makes you more bored and leads to watching more porn. Wake up❗STOP the vicious cycle now. Take my Free Porn Detox Course to heal from porn and feel motivated for success now. ►►► GET THE COURSE NOW: https://romanmironov.com/free Join me on a walk in Downtown Toronto. I will show you Liberty Village, CN Tower, Fort York, Exhibition Place, Lake Ontario, and Union Station. There are three levels of dealing with porn addiction. The first level is escaping your feelings with porn. I used to be unhappy and I wanted to escape it with porn right there and then. I had a symptom and I was using a Band-Aid for it. It worked for my symptom. But it was a coping mechanism for escaping the symptom = the feeling. Porn is that Band-Aid that lets you escape the feeling that you have. But it's only that. It only covers up the symptom in the short term. But it doesn't do anything to improve the situation. The second level is improved addiction. It's "medication." That "medication" is replacing porn with a healthier addiction such as an intimate relationship. It's better but not sustainable. Made me feel amazing a lot of the time. But deep inside, I was still unhappy. What if your partner breaks up with you? That’s what my ex-wife did. Band-Aids and medications don't work. What is the ultimate solution ❔ The third level is getting free from ALL addictions. You've got to strike at the root cause of unhappiness rather than the symptom. The root cause is your inability to enjoy life when you're doing… nothing. Stop maximizing pleasure. Like just being. Teach yourself to disconnect from the thinking mind and connect to being. The mind wants to feel comfortable. When you indulge in addictions, you feel comfortable but it means you are satisfying your lower self (monkey mind). No fulfillment there. Embrace pain as something you grow from. Read The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. Stop seeking stimulations. Enjoy meditation. Appreciate every little experience. Do that and you finally strike at the root cause rather than the symptom I already feel good and if I sit down to meditate, I will feel even better. ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

I masturbate around 4 times a week. And now every day. In spite of having been interested in space from a really young age. I only worked hard to gather knowledge until I was 13. From there my graph went down. I have a dream to begin a startup. However, porn makes me lazy, I can’t concentrate on a thing for more than 10 minutes. I won't put in work even if it is important enough. But I know its consequences are devastating.” I wasted 5 golden years on porn addiction, too. With porn consumption, my brain became lazy. I hijacked my own motivation system. Concentration is under attack today already. An average attention span in 2015 was about 8 seconds, less than a goldfish. In 2000, it was 12 seconds. ADHD is also on the rise. 4.4 mln US kids in 2003 vs 6 mln in 2016 to 2019. To quit porn, Joshua has to rely on his interest in space. Create dreams that will create meaning in your life. Otherwise, porn creates that meaning for you. Stop distractions. Create a schedule. Create a Life that you will enjoy. Now you are running from your life. ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

Porn: What's Its Purpose? An Eye-Opening Answer (He Is Hero Podcast Ep 75)

Heal your brain from porn in 30 days with my Free Porn Detox Course: https://romanmironov.com/free I know how bad you feel after watching p**n. It makes you feel weak, depressed, lonely, and worthless. Most people try to cure it by playing video games or watching TV but it just makes you more bored and leads to watching more porn. Wake up❗STOP the vicious cycle now. Take my Free Porn Detox Course to heal from porn and feel motivated for success now. ►►► GET THE COURSE NOW: https://romanmironov.com/free Join me on a walk in Cruickshank Park at 2196 Weston Road in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I am walking along the Humber River. The purpose of porn is to create sexually arousing content that is intended to be consumed for sexual stimulation and gratification. Pornography is a type of media that can take many different forms, such as videos, images, magazines, or websites, and it typically depicts sexual acts or nudity in a way that is intended to be erotic or sexually stimulating. I will look at pornography from my super-biased perspective of an anti-porn guy. The first purpose is to make you dumb and controllable. Your brain is lazy. It wants pleasure. Pleasure can come from dopamine or serotonin. Dopamine comes from instant rewards that come easily. Serotonin comes from hard work. Getting real sex with a great partner is hard work. Your brain doesn’t want to go for the hard work of sex to get serotonin. It’s so much easier to go for the dopamine of porn and masturbation. Porn is just too accessible. The hardest part is that it’s too easy to access on your phone—one click and you’re already on it. After you get addicted to porn, the porn industry now controls you. The second purpose is to ensure the survival of the porn industry. It must grow profits by perpetuating itself and attracting new consumers and new talent, regardless of the damage it makes. The third purpose is to cross-seel associated things to you. Examples include Only Fans, sex toys, and VR goggles. Now, let’s look at the “healthier” purposes of porn. It can be a form of sexual release. People feel the sexual tension and do PMO as a controlled release. The problem is that it’s too easy to get addicted very quickly. Porn can add spice to your sexual life. Let’s say, a couple wants to re-ignite the spark in their relationship. But they might not realize that porn comes with a risk of shattering the stability of the relationship. Some people are so depressed that PMO is one of the few ways for them to cope. The problem is that it will stop working eventually. Excessive consumption of pornography can also have negative consequences, such as addiction, desensitization to sexual content, and distorted views of sex and sexuality. It is recommended that individuals consume pornography in moderation and with a critical awareness of its potential impact on their physical and mental health. ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

You will see the CN Tower (far away, though), St. Clair Avenue, Spadina Road, Weston Road, and Davenport Road. I used self-talk to build a porn-free identity. I also make sure to say to myself words that instill good qualities in me: strength, discipline, and hard work ethic. I also recommend using my “15 Minutes of Sacrifice” technique: Imagine yourself feeling unhappy or bored or lonely. And you want to escape this feeling using fapping. But how long does it last? On average, 15 minutes. What happens after that? You feel even worse than when you started. And you have that bad feeling on average for 2 hours. So that’s 15 minutes of pleasure vs. 2 hours of pain. That said, let’s look at an alternative scenario. Again, you feel unhappy or bored and want to escape. But this time, you spend the same 15 minutes not doing PMO. You choose to be strong. I know that is difficult… and painful. But afterward, you get 2 hours of pleasure because you feel good about making the right choice. That’s 15 minutes of pain vs. 2 hours of pleasure. When you compare these two options, the choice is obvious. So next time you feel the fapping urge set a timer for 15 minutes and use positive self-talk. ---------------------------------------------- COMPANION BLOG POST https://romanmironov.com/no-pmo/ ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

But then I quit fapping and realized these benefits: ✔ Tired → More energy. I used to feel tired all the time. But after quitting PMO, I reclaimed my energy. ✔ Self-hatred → Loving life. I hated myself for being weak and sleeping my porn secretive. But I broke free and now live a good life that I enjoy. ✔ Anxious → More confidence. I used to have a lot of insecurities and porn only made them worse. By stopping porn, I increased my confidence. ✔ Feeling dead → Heightened senses. My senses were dulled before getting rid of PMO. But after I was free, I felt that my senses heightened. ✔ Unmotivated → Making more money. Excessive fapping used to kill my motivation. I quit it and found the motivation to move from a third-world country to Canada at the age of 36. ✔ Lonely → Getting a girlfriend. I felt very lonely and thought porn would help but it only made things worse. When I quit PMO, I got a girlfriend and felt real love. ✔ Brain fog → Better concentration & creativity. Overstimulating myself with porn caused brain fog. I went NoFap and reclaimed my cognitive performance. ✔ Worsening health → Better hair, skin, memory, and erection. I noticed that my erection wasn't strong enough. I quit fapping and stopped myself from developing erectile dysfunction. I got my morning wood back. ✔ Insomnia → Better sleep, vivid dreams. My sleep used to be irregular because of PMO. After quitting, my REM and deep sleep improved. I have more willpower because I sleep well. ✔ Weak → Stronger. On NoFap, I saw my gym results improve and I felt physically stronger. You don’t have to make my mistakes all over again, destroying your brain and life. Quit porn and excessive fapping now and get the same benefits that I did. ---------------------------------------------- COMPANION BLOG POST https://romanmironov.com/nofap-benefits/ ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

Take my Free Porn Detox Course to heal from porn and feel motivated for success now. ►►► GET THE COURSE NOW: https://romanmironov.com/free Join me on a walk in the Distillery Historical District in Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Learn sustainable ways to relieve anxiety. I see a lot of clients go to PMO as a coping mechanism for relieving anxiety. It does work for a short moment but ultimately, it is an unsustainable strategy. The key is to deal with anxiety directly—as the root cause of PMO addiction. And I totally understand if you are feeling anxious. People are simply unprepared physically and psychologically for the amount of pressure the modern world puts on them. I am not a naturally anxious person. But I had periods in my life when I had it. One time was after my son Denis was born. My cousin's kid had died a year before, right before his birthday. I was scared that something like that could happen to my own son. I've been struggling with overthinking recently. I feel it is also related to anxiety. I might think of all the different details of any task at hand. Even something as simple as riding a bike to a grocery store. That said, let me share a few ways I've used to relieve anxiety. Focusing on just one thing Just like many people, I like focusing on one thing. When I am laser-focused, I forget about any problems that I might have in the future. I feel calmer. To achieve that focus, I set goals and make plans for achieving them. Then I take that planning down to a day level. I schedule my day in 30-minute segments. I know exactly what I will be doing and that helps with focus. I also make sure to minimize distractions. If I have a distracting thought, I write it down. It's like I'm downloading this thought off my mind. My mind stops worrying about it as a result because now it knows that I will get back to that thought later. I also eliminate distractions from the phone. I turn off notifications and look at the phone as little as possible. Letting go of control Anxiety is about trying to control everything including perceptions of yourself in others. I do my best to let go of that control. My goal is to be like a speaker in a club. It just plays music and doesn't care about how anyone reacts to it. Create an explanation for your fear (I learned this from Daniel Gilbert). Our mind lets go when it has an explanation of the things it wants to worry about. It's best to do this in writing. ---------------------------------------------- COMPANION BLOG POST https://romanmironov.com/porn-anxiety/ ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

I Keep Relapsing on PMO, Why? (He Is Hero Podcast Ep 67)

Heal your brain from porn in 30 days with my Free Porn Detox Course: https://romanmironov.com/free I know how bad you feel after watching p**n. It makes you feel weak, depressed, lonely, and worthless. Most people try to cure it by playing video games or watching TV but it just makes you more bored and leads to watching more porn. Wake up❗STOP the vicious cycle now. Take my Free Porn Detox Course to heal from porn and feel motivated for success now. ►►► GET THE COURSE NOW: https://romanmironov.com/free Join me on my walk in Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I keep relapsing on No PMO, why ❔ When I'd finished a PMO session many years ago, I'd always hate myself. And I'd make a promise to myself to quit it for good. But then I'd relapse anyway. This cycle kept on repeating for years. I didn't understand why I kept relapsing back then. But after I read George Lenard's book Mastery: The Keys to Success and Long-Term Fulfillment, my eyes opened. What is homeostasis ❔ It turns out that there is a system in our mind that prevents us from changing. It's called homeostasis. Homeostasis is an equilibrium state that our mind automatically returns to because this state ensured our survival in the past. It's like our comfort zone. A decade ago, I had mild depression and survived it by developing an addiction to social media and porn. I taught my brain that this is my homeostasis. After I recovered from depression, I wanted to get rid of my addictions. But every time, I kept relapsing because my brain felt uncomfortable about these changes and returned me to homeostasis—the old me riddled with bad habits. Look, homeostasis is an amazing system that protects us from stress. Among other things, it maintains blood pressure and body temperature. But the problem with homeostasis is that it only cares about survival in the short term. The system doesn't want to improve. It only wants to maintain its current state. It creates a strong gravitational pull to stay in the current comfort zone that is very hard to resist. Imagine a jealous friend who doesn't want you to make progress in life because they fear you will abandon them. Of course, the problem with homeostasis is that it holds you back from pursuing your dreams or goals. It's about survival right now, not about success or fulfillment in the long term. Those things are scary for homeostasis. Homeostasis is also tightly connected to our habits. When you make some behavior habitual, it becomes part of your homeostasis. That habit comes easy but breaking it is difficult. After learning about homeostasis, I realized that I could make it work for me rather than against me. I had to break through it initially with willpower. But then my homeostasis would shift and new habits would become easier. I did this with my social media and porn addiction. The first two weeks were brutal as I was breaking through the resistance of my homeostasis. But then going got much easier. With time, it became easier to maintain the new homeostasis. That resistance I broke through now became my support. I remembered how I hated my old life with all those addictions. And now I was afraid of going back to it. ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ✔Website: https://romanmironov.com/ ✔Patreon: https://patreon.com/HeIsHero ✔Ask me a question directly by email: roman@romanmironov.com ✔YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@HeIsHero ✔Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/be20ofyourself/ ✔TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@be20ofyourself ✔Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/heishero/ #nopmo #pornaddict #nopornography

Wake up❗STOP the vicious cycle now. Take my Free Porn Detox Course to heal from porn and feel motivated for success now. ►►► GET THE COURSE NOW: https://romanmironov.com/free To really quit porn addiction, ask yourself these two questions: The first question is “What kind of technique can I use to quit my porn addiction ❔” I get asked this question often because people understandably want a quick solution. Some even want a magic cure 🙂 When I was quitting porn, using techniques helped me a lot. I used a replacement habit and punishment. With that, I was able to go to 30 clean days. And I felt so motivated and energized that I made a promise to myself: no more PMO. I felt alive and wanted to feel like this all the time. But that was a surface level change. The pain that drove me to PMO was still there. It was loneliness and depression because I didn’t like my life. That’s where the second question came in. And it’s way more important for quitting porn addiction. I asked myself, “How do I get my life together now so that I will never go back to porn ❔” I was doing porn and masturbation because I didn’t like who I became. I am a guy who wants always to do the right thing. But my life was terrible at the moment. I used PMO as a coping mechanism. And then I hated myself even more because that was another bad choice. So I started getting my life together in the hope I will stop betraying my identity. I learned social skills and got a girlfriend. I got in better shape because I hit the gym hard. I hired more employees for my business so that it could work without me. I started spending more time with my little son and loving it. I mustered the courage to move from Russia to Canada at the age of 36. That was an identity-level change. I started to love my life. And porn addiction became irrelevant. ---------------------------------------------- COMPANION BLOG POST https://romanmironov.com/how-to-quit-masturbation/ ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

How to Get Rid of PMO from Scratch in 2023 (He Is Hero Podcast Ep. 61)

Heal your brain from porn in 30 days with my Free Porn Detox Course: https://romanmironov.com/free I know how bad you feel after watching p**n. It makes you feel weak, depressed, lonely, and worthless. Most people try to cure it by playing video games or watching TV but it just makes you more bored and leads to watching more porn. Wake up❗STOP the vicious cycle now. Take my Free Porn Detox Course to heal from porn and feel motivated for success now. ►►► GET THE COURSE NOW: https://romanmironov.com/free When my brain was addicted to porn, I was a battery to the system. I didn’t want to get out of my room and get rid of PMO. I didn’t want a girlfriend. I didn’t want to travel. I didn’t want to live a passionate life. Until I realized I actually wanted those things. I’d been lying to myself. That’s how I got motivated for my No PMO brain recovery. With that motivation, I started getting my life together. After I started NoFap I also rewired my brain to get pleasure from activities that used to feel boring. I felt more motivated to do those activities. For example, while I was addicted to PMO, I'd feel the urge to distract myself with PMO every time I sat down to work. That's because I taught my brain knew this was a reliable source of pleasure. But now I felt motivated to fight that distraction. My brain went, "Okay, now I can't get pleasure from distractions. Where do I get it?" And the answer was, "Work and other productive activities!" I didn't need to get distracted to feel pleasure anymore. I felt motivated to get it by doing something productive instead. Accomplishing small goals started to give me pleasure. Especially now that I also increased the number of dopamine receptors. That’s how to get rid of PMO. ---------------------------------------------- COMPANION BLOG POST https://romanmironov.com/nofap-benefits/ ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.

Why Cure Your Brain from Porn (He Is Hero Podcast Ep. 59)

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 Cure your brain from porn in 30 days with my Free Porn Detox Course: https://romanmironov.com/free I know how bad you feel after watching p**n. It makes you feel weak, depressed, lonely, and worthless. Most people try to cure it by playing video games or watching TV but it just makes you more bored and leads to watching more porn. Wake up❗STOP the vicious cycle now. Take my Free Porn Detox Course to heal from porn and feel motivated for success now. ►►► GET THE COURSE NOW: https://romanmironov.com/free Some people criticize me for being against PMO. I want to address those common critiques in this walking podcast episode. I will explain why I to curing your brain from porn helps with self-improvement. Critique # 1: I am not addicted. I watch it recreationally. Indeed, some people can do PMO recreationally just like I can drink a glass of wine once in a few years and not become an alcoholic. My goal is not to convert those people. My first goal is to increase awareness of the dangers of PMO among those who don’t recognize them. Especially kids. Here’s an example from someone reaching out to me for help: “I'm 18 and I have been masturbating since 16 and I realized that it affected my grades and life negatively. I will sit for a bachelor's exam in 3 months but I want my mind and soul to be clearer. Is a month enough time to recover and regain the clever brain I once had?” My second goal is to use my stories and strategies to motivate people who are seriously addicted to PMO and need help. Critique # 2: You are selling unscientific cr*p. There’s actually pretty convincing scientific evidence about the problems with PMO. For example, a 2022 study from Switzerland looked at how porn influences men and women. Here’s what they found for men: “A higher frequency of porn use (wave 1) and increased porn use over time (waves 1–3) were associated with lower levels of sexual self-competence, impaired sexual functioning, and decreased partner-reported sexual satisfaction.” https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/psychological-medicine/article/porn-use-and-mens-and-womens-sexual-performance-evidence-from-a-large-longitudinal-sample/665B68D9E195A19B5825F9411B059927 Critique # 3: Counting days doesn’t work. You should make NoFap a lifestyle instead. Look, if you have the willpower to go NoFap Cold Turkey, I applaud for me. For me, counting days was very useful. It helped me admit that I was an addict and needed to work hard to get rid of the addiction. Plus, tracking my progress motivated me to keep going. Critique # 4: Why do you say masturbation is bad ❓ I don’t think masturbation is bad. In fact, it’s healthy. It only becomes a problem when used excessively, compulsively, and in conjunction with porn. I actually believe that having a regular controlled release is a good thing as long as you don’t use it as an excuse not to look for a romantic partner. Critique # 5: Why do you propose extreme semen retention ❓ I actually don’t. I don’t think it’s healthy. When I was quitting PMO, I reduced my bad habit to masturbating once a week with no porn. I believe whenever we don’t use any part of our body, it atrophies. And so does the reproductive system. I am not a doctor, though, and I am not giving medical advice. Critique # 6: Stop moralizing. I actually agree with this. Sometimes, I might fall into moralizing. But I think there is enough stigma in the NoFap community already. By moralizing, we might make people feel unnecessarily guilty and worthless. The alternative is humor—making fun of ourselves. After all, we are a bunch of evolved monkeys on a spinning rock. Critique # 7: You aren't PMO-free. It’s up to you to believe me or not. I will only say this: I’ve been PMO-free for almost 9 years now. And I regret that I hadn’t done it in my teenage years. I missed too many opportunities for having a loving relationship with a girl back then. ---------------------------------------------- OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: 🧠How Long Does It Take for a Brain to Heal from Pornography: https://youtu.be/z2oepsyvE-s 🤔No PMO Depression after Week One (And Easy-to-Use Tools for Coping with It): https://youtu.be/H-mLIQXRbpQ 🏃How Long to Rewire Brain from Porn Addiction: https://youtu.be/yT1ECk8ZQIw https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdA0oZPOSZLFLOj7VoVfwspnc6iIoj0z2 ---------------------------------------------- ABOUT PORN DETOX COACH ROMAN MIRONOV I help people reclaim their life and actualize their potential by going porn-free.
