It's often a number of things that happen all at once. For me, I was drinking too much, partying too much, had issues and stress with a flat and other business etc. Took its toll.
I took a break. By that, I caught oneitis with a 28 year old close to wall hag. Hag is the only way to describe her, smoker, cc rider, tattoos, club rat, used to be engaged, was a mess. However I was so exhausted by my lifestyle I just went along with it, until I decided to cut her from my life.
Since then, I reviewed everything it was around #nonothingnovember.
I'm actually upset its Xmas, as it will disrupt my rhythm. I am in full on monk mode. I gave up smoking, alcohol (in moderation), certain friendship circles, and became content with myself.
Now I sit in on a saturday night and watch a movie on my own. I fucking love it, I've never done that before. I have no urge, no "thirst" to go and blow my money in clubs anymore just to maybe meet someone.
My deleting of social media allowed me to understand what a load of bullshit it is. I only rarely check instagram, twitter etc. Those things are evil.
My training in the gym has a clearer plan. I'm eating better, I'm sleeping better. My life has improved dramatically.
The one thing that is missing is I guess sex. I'm not fucking anyone at the moment, but I have plates who have naturally messaged me back on the scene. Thanks to this "reboot" I cleared my head to remaster game. /u/bankruptedcasino wrote an incredible post on texting, and I have implemented it.
I reinstalled tinder for the holidays and its great fun to apply this rebooted self to the context of pussy, but its not the be all and end all.
So learn that a reboot is important. Reset and start again. Don't just give up. Research nofap and challenge yourself.
I took on addiction to a degree... and I won. Reboot, become better if you've hit a low.
