It has been such a relief to find a forum like NoFap to be open an honest with about porn addiction. I am also a recovering alcoholic sober 9 years, and finding this group on here makes me feel even more at home. Much like staying sober in AA, I know I need the support and honesty of others to give up porn. Thanks for accepting me. Thankful for the 12 step programs and this forum. Closing out day 2 Porn free.

Hello. We have the same time porn free. Welcome. Do you go to a 12 step program for porn addiction? So they exist?

Hi @Harrison1990, nice to have you in the community. I‘m pretty convinced this community will benefit the journey you are already on. Congratulations to the 9 years. That is awesome. I am currently attending CoDA and SAA meetings. Alcohol is a side issue, it can lead to more damage, bringing me into the mood to act out sexually therefore I cut it down, not drinking on a daily basis anymore and when then moderately. I will though not be drinking now until I go to the meditation retreat on Aug. 28.

Right on @CookyMonster. The 12 step programs are truly an incredible journey. You will find strength from others to overcome any addiction and experience peace within yourself.

Hey SaturnSun! I don’t go to any porn addiction meetings or aware that they have them specifically for porn. I go to 2-3 AA meetings weekly, but need something more like this forum for help stopping PM.

Thanks Harrison. I wouldn’t go to those mtgs if they did exist. I’d be too ashamed.

Actually once you are there and you hear them all you realize there is no need to feel ashamed.

No shame in admitting any addiction. Very courageous to be able to do so.

@SaturnsSun I was first apprehensive of going to a SAA meeting cause I feared I might bump into ppl I know ... That wasn‘t the case. I think I would have turned on my heels and left.
