    I am a 45 yr old happily married man who has had a problem with pornography for about 10 years now. I started fapping at age 14 and it's been off and on since. I developed a porn problem later in my married life I believe as a way to relieve stress and other selfish reasons. My wife knows of my problem and has been supportive to help me quit. I love her dearly and don't want to keep hurting her and myself. I never mixed fapping with viewing porn until about 2 years ago and now this seems to be more frequent. I recently relapsed after a 3 month streak and would like to beat my longest streak of 5 months of no porn. I would like to stop both fapping and porn altogether. I came across this website after watching "the great porn experiment" and decided it would help me to be in a group so we can help each other. So let's work together. We can do it!

    Good luck. Porn and masturbation are a bad combo. Much better just to masturbate if you must. There's a lot at stake and you might like this article: http://yourbrainonporn.com/guys-who-gave-porn-sex-and-romance as well as the videos at that site (run by "The Great Porn Experiment" speaker of the TEDx talk).

    It's a challenge, but a challenge worth taking. Way to go! The support I've felt from this site has been extremely helpful, but I give the credit for my current abstinence to God. Welcome to the site, bro.

    the only time i ever went 3 months is when i had no tv and no internet connection in my home. Eventually i got my cable back up and running so i could watch some sporting events again and sure enough i would go looking for anything even partially stimulating. this led to sometimes 7 or 8 straight days of pmo. I haven't even been a month since that reset about 4 years ago. I am currently on the longest active streak since that major relapse. But it is different this time...even in the first month through. I actually feel victory and not just abstaining from it. My mind is being transformed, praise God, and freedom is my destination
