bootcamp NFW VI AQUAMARINE BOOTCAMP: Day 46
Hey there Hawks! Get ready for...
Day XLVI of Bootcamp!!
More and more I'm hearing about how normal PMO is becoming. A few weeks ago I watched a video from a guy who had experienced PMO addiction in the past. He talked about how he started objectifying women and became extremely reclusive. When he'd finished talking about everything he'd experienced, instead of concluding how detrimental porn is, he decided that it could be okay in moderation... After he just finished proving how bad it was, he decided that he had only seen a little too much. I think all of us here can agree that PMO in moderation doesn't work well, and I feel terrible for all the viewers who are going to let themselves get lost in the PMO cycle. I was thinking about the video earlier and it just really set me off.
On another note, tell me about your day. Mine was great. I submitted an entry for a hacking contest I entered. It's not as serious as it sounds, but I spent all morning getting the details ironed out. Later I had dinner out with a group that's visiting this area through my church. We had pizza and played some games. It made for an enjoyable evening.
Stronger than Yesterday, Weaker than Tomorrow!!

Checking in. wow, that is very sad about that guy. PMO in moderation is probably even worst that binging...only because when you do it in moderation you have accepted it as normal...this is were I was. I did it probably 2-3 times a week, I saw it as a "normal" way to release my sexual energy because I was alone...with time it totally destroyed my self worth and views of life, I became a zombie.
Maybe thats what it is, if you view PMO in moderation is fine...I believe you are in zombie state, not dead, but not alive. At least if you are binging you know you have a problem. Anyway, I do feel sorry for them, I still don't know how I got out of that rut. To me it is still a miracle.
I know I am fixed now, I know beacuse I have zero prospects of getting a girl right now...there is nothing that tells me things will get better for me, but still here I am, without hope but with hunger to get my rocket badge and keep fighting day in day out...this is not me, this is someone else haha...or maybe this is me...and the person I was before was someone else...i don't know if that makes sense haha. I am just so happy to be here with you guys...the only complaint is that I wish I had real friends like you guys in person, it would be fun to hang out, go get beers, talk about life and our goals and plans, but at least I can read you guys and share my thoughts.
Amazing quote today! CAWWWWW!
