E2

[Blink]

E2 makes you face the root of issues. If you used to fap or watch porn, and stopped - a lot of times it was an effect with a root cause. Rather than deal with the cause, you buried the effect (with nofap). Now that you're dealing with the root cause, the effect temporarily remanifests itself as you deal with it.

I stopped working out or exercising on E2 and started eating like complete shit. I've always used exercise or getting my body to look good as a shield for something (and as a way to boost my ego). Apparently, it was important for me to break the cycle and just work on accepting myself, no matter how I look or whatever. I will need to revisit E2 in the future, but whoever said it works different for everyone at different speeds was right-on.

That makes a lot of sense! I'm starting to feel a little disconnect from porn already. The whole jerking off to it feels so mechanical and unnecessary... Something is definitely being worked on!
