Hi I'm Matt Peplinski. I struggled with mental health issues every since I was 5 years old. Back then I did nothing but watch the only cartoon channel that was available back then. The english version of cartoon network. During my entire childhood I did almost nothing but play videogames, watch television, browser the internet or watch porn all day. I almost never did anything productive, which only made my depression stronger.
Things got even worse when I was 13 years old; I experienced my first major panic attacks. It got so bad that at one point an ambulance had to take me home every week.
All that changed when I turned 16 and became obsessed with every form of self-help therapy imaginable. That didn't stop my downfall; I suffered a major psychotic episode in 2009 and became catatonic for over a year.
The road to recovery from then on was excruciating. I was unable to receive proper professional help, forcing me to rely on self-help courses that failed to meet all of my needs, but at least allowed me recover sufficiently to go to college to study psychology.
I managed to not only alleviate my panic disorder and other mental problems, I also managed to recover from my crippling addictions to: video games, television, porn and the internet. And of all of these problems porn adddiction was probably the worst one!
I've since dedicated my life to help other people who suffered from similar issues as I did by providing accessible and evidence based self-help courses on Udemy.
