Quitting from Dec 21, 2024 like this comment to remind me Edit: Still holding my record đź’Ş
Hello! My name is Kyler, and I am 13yo, and you have really helped me. I have had very low confidence due to my skin, and also have been very addicted to corn. You have helped me in quitting and also helping me find a purpose in life. Thank you, Jak.
I'm 21 years old, I think I've had this bad habit for about 7 years, the money is to thank you for making this video, I find myself with many of the things you said, I can't afford to waste any more time, today January 8, 2025 this bad period of my life ends. I'll mark the date, in 2 months (March 8) I'll be back to write that I'm out. Edit: Its 8 march and i didn't make it, I don't think I'm mentally strong enough, I started well but then I started again, now I do it less times a week. Despite this, it's been a month since I started meditating 5 minutes a day, being more present and aware I feel that it can certainly help me, I know that the real effects are in the long run but already now I feel better when I do it, I recommend it to everyone. I'm positive, thank you for the support with the comments, I wish you the best <3
Day 1 of quitting. It has been a 9 year struggle. Like this comment so I always get reminders!
Beautifully said. “The pain of regret is going to be so much stronger than the pain of discipline.”
Here I am (32m) opening YouTube and just scrolling through my feed, to stumble upon your video. I didn't even know who you are. I had never heard of you. So my initial thought was skeptical and reluctant, but I opened it anyway. Why? Probably, cause I'm in the same boat as most of the people here. I've been watching it and craving it more and more since I first discovered it 20 years or so ago. So I kept watching your video, cause I recognise your story so much. I have thought and tried (maybe with not enough intention) of quitting multiple times but never succeeded. My gratitude goes out towards you for being so open about it and giving so many people, myself included, that push to actually start and hopefully see it through. Today 13/02/2025: is the day I finally quit no matter what. Thank you Jak! Thank you for your honesty! May you inspire many more! I'm glad I pressed play.
Bro. Your video really helped me a lot. For nine fucking years I've been j*rking 0ff Until I turned eighteen, I simply stopped doing it. I had drained myself so hard and so many times that my body simply couldn't take it anymore and I lost interest. I'm nineteen now, I'll be twenty in May and I've realized the damage I've done to myself. No friends, no girlfriend, just living my monotonous grey life, Rotating between university and work without more, without motivation or purpose. But when I saw you say "I believe in you" along with that smile that for me, was the most genuine I've ever seen, I didn't hesitate to tap my screen to receive that fist from you. Now I think I can really change the path my sorry ass has taken for so many years...thanks
As someone who has quit, this is a great video to comment on. After reading the book Energenosa Self-Control Game, I realized how much of an impact it can have on your brain, and it also saps your energy. Now, I feel great, my energy and focus are back, I have more energy and I feel stronger. Believe me, its worth stopping.
Thank you for gifting us your courage and your humility on this weight. I have experienced this addiction starting when I was 12 or 13 years old, and I'm still struggling now that I'm 26. Half my life has been consumed by this lust and I have been fighting for a long time. There were certain moments where I have this complete revulsion, the most absolute disgust in my soul that was telling me to get rid of all of it, it was spiritually painful. Temptations still lead me here today until I watched your video in full, and I rarely sit in one sitting without skipping the video. I just want to say again thank you for this confession. Stay strong.
Dude I'm leaving this habit behind at 30th of December and hoping of never coming back to it again and wish to start a healthy life from the new year, thank you bro! ❤
This is my first time giving someone a superchat,i am quitting this addiction today and right now 29/12/2024.Thank you so much man for showing us the right path or rather I say we already knew the right path but you guided us to how to go through it and gave us the courage to take action at the right time.THANKS A LOT BROTHER.
Thanks! Much love brother. I won't go back to day 0
You got massive balls for speaking so openly about this in front of so many people. You're a huge inspiration to me and I can't wait to reach the point you have, much love brother.
Hey Jak, Hunter here. You deserve this money. You're ma aussie brother. Your always there to remind me. I've always been lazy and never pull through. To help me END this horrible addiction. I wanna give this money as a thank you for all you hard work. But also a PROMISE and an INVESTMENT for MY mental health. Its gonna give me that extra motivation to END my addiction to the hub. Thanks again Jak, keep doing what you're doing and keep changing lives 🤜🏽🤛🏼.
I have had a really bad addiction for around 2 years now of doing it once or twice every, single, day. It really started 4 or 5 years ago but it only became a real addiction from about 2 years ago. And I thought it was completely normal because it was the "cool thing" to do in my school. Everytime I felt like watching it I simply did without question. Only in the past week or two have I realised how horrible it is. And it was largely due to me simply sitting outside at around 3 in the morning, I couldnt get to sleep that night, and I just sat there simply thinking about everything that I had done up to this point. And I realised that I wasn't who I wanted to be, the me that was sitting there at 3 am wasnt the true me that I wanted to be. And it was almost as if something just clicked in the back of my mind, and I realised then and there that something needed to change. Ive seen your videos in my recommended for a while now but i never truly sat and watched them and taken what you say to heart. But this video was different, it almost felt like you were an older brother that genuinely wanted the best for me and I actually took it to heart. This comment is probably really difficult to understand and thats probably because its pretty much just me writing whatever comes to mind. But starting from now I really, truly want to overcome this addiction. Starting from now, December 29, 4:13 Adelaide time. I will get through this to prove to myself that I can overcome this. Thank you Jak, you have had one of the biggest impacts of my life and I seriously cannot thank you enough.
I'm 31, struggled with porn addiction for 15 years and literally cried listening to this. Been watching all sorts of messed up porn and been nothing but ashamed of it. Started to quit as of March and ready to face my inner demons again! Love the video!!!
I'm a woman here but i just wanna say spaces like these, that men like you help create is so beautiful to see. I do wish to see more men supporting men, in a meaningful safe way emotionally. I notice men tend not to have as much support so im very glad to see this! Much love to all you brothers, i know you guys can get through this! Im praying for you. Thanks Jak for being vulnerable for the sake of others
Quitting this from this moment—midnight, 3:35 o'clock. I'm writing this to my future self. Hey, I know who you are and how capable you are. Don’t waste your potential and energy, bro. Come on, we can do this. I hope that by the time you’re reading this, you’ve overcome this. I love you bro ❤ .. Don't kill my hope
Hello Jak I am a 13 yo teenager that had an addiction to corn and this video made me realise the affects of corn and what it does to a human body. This video has helped me in quitting and made me found that their is an bigger purpose to life. I sincerely Thank you, Jak.
