EyeofNothing

The point of /r/NoFap is that individuals (like myself) have identified patterned, habitual use of pornography and the consequences of leading a life style that over values the importance of sexual activity, often to the detriment of effort and time spent on other, more fulfilling activities.

Basically, I identify as a sex addict, and have participated in self-destructive behavior in a never ending cycle of sexual gratification, self abuse, and sexual objectification.

NoFappers acknowledge this never ending cycle (again, no different that substance abuse addiction... the phrase "one is too many, and a thousand is never enough" absolutely applies) has been problematic in our lives, and we are seeking to break the cycle.

It has nothing to do with religion or superstition, or thinking that "masturbation is evil." And it's not a pseudo science, lol... It is men/teenagers who have acknowledged a pattern of self abuse, which absolutely DOES cause a numbing psychological affect on the male psyche. We seek to curb the self abuse, and find more fulfilling activities in life.

I just wanted to stop by and say that I binge watched the Planet Earth episodes on BBC this past weekend, and I am repeatedly amazed by the incredible work your team has done on filming and sharing these films for our wonder and amazement.

Thank you for your contribution to my fascination with our planet, so many amazing locales, and its inhabitants.
