Hi everyone. Starting day two of my first legitimate effort at sex/porn addiction recovery in a few years. SLAA1, you're right about credits not transferring! As a way of introduction, I was a member of SAA for many years and had long stretches of sobriety (18 mo being the longest) I eventually decided that I could not beat it and resolved to " manage" it. Needless to say, it has been managing me for a couple of years now.
I am not the guy that is full of Hope and acts like I'm going to quit forever. Even on day two here, I am focused on staying clean right now. I worry that recovery is really not possible for me again. Like I had my chance and I didn't cash in. So I am looking at NoFap 10 times a day instead of something else.
I struggle with writing here because I was taught that New comers listen. But I feel like I also have something to offer. Don't have to figure it all out today.
I am grateful for this NoFap thing. I have some hope. That's all I've got, thanks for letting me share.

When I attended my first SAA meeting I heard them speak of aneroxic and such. I thought what? Isn't this a SAA meeting? What are anorexic people doing here ... Then I slowly understood. My intention is neither to never ever ever have an orgasm again or masturbate or else ... But I can see, as long as I act out being triggered and driven, compulsively, I still have to wait and keep quiet, admit that it is stronger than me and see what comes. Welcome and there is no need to be quiet. You've already made quite a journey. Congratulations to the 18 months. And all the other achievements you accomplished. You do not start here, you continue.
