Hey everyone, I'm not sure where to start so I'll just start at the beginning. I started looking at porn in my early teens and soon became addicted. I probably PMO'd almost every night. Every now and then I might have gone a month without it but it seemed to always come back. Recently I've been trying harder as that I got interested in a girl who is now my girlfriend. This has decreased my desire for PMO drastically and I've been on a pretty consistant streak for the past 6 months or so. Maybe relapsing once a month, which felt amazing compared to the last 7 year's of feeling helpless. I joined here cause I just really want to beat this and to do it for my girlfriend too as I'm slightly worried about PIED. Keep your fingers crossed for me Thanks
Hey @HarryGarry , I'm just a normal ordinary member. No moderator super powers and no special insite. I share my ESH (Experience, Strength and Hope) of what works for me. Just another warm welcome and a heart felt hello. This community has helped me so much. What worked for me was "working" it. It took hard work for me to complete a hard reboot (No pmo) for 120 days, then move into a Sex Positive mode. First, reading the literature published by NoFap itself along with reading journals. Then, doing the work. Writing in my journal and replying to introductions and other's journals. Finally, but not least, getting involved with the fellowship. I found it on the forums, but also in people's profiles. The forums tend to be longer posts, where the profiles tend to be more "conversational". That is what has worked for me. I like to remind myself that this community was here waiting for me with the lights on when I arrived. Now, I have to do my best to be there when someone comes to the community. * L --- PS: Why not say hello to some members? The fellowship is so important to me, I hope you might find it important as well. @BreatheDeeply Journals at: https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/139097/ --- @LiquidShoes Journals at: https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/134044/ --- @Reverent Journals at: https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/143845/ --- @Former_CD Journals at: https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/87827/ --- @PatrickR Journals at: https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/139570/ --- There are many more, and you can discover them on your own. But, these are great places to start.
Thanks everybody. It already feels better to not try and do this alone. I appreciate the advice and good wishes
Thanks! I'll be right behind you man. Not sure what day I'm on lol. I kinda forgot to make note when I started but we got this for sure
