Hi everybody! I’m 35yo and I’ve got a long history of PMO habits, since teen years. I’ve seen every kind of P , even illegal and dangerous. I used M as escapism when I was single, but it clearly worsened isolation. Now I have a GF, we are both Christian and even if it’s not easy we want live clean until wedding. I don’t want indulge in P&M for her. Lastly, two younger male friends from my church confess me they have problems too with PM: I would really help them and I feel that NoFap community can support me. Thanks for reading: I’m open to private supportive chat here and on Telegram.
Hey @GPero82 , 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. Then, watch this video: --> L PS - One of the ways I got involved with the fellowship was by reading some really great journals. Reading other's stories with their victories and even defeats is a big part of my program. I've included journals from all age groups, spiritual members, religious members, secular members, male and female. You should find journals that help. If not, look around, there are hundreds of others from which to choose. When I say "it works if you work it", reading journals is part of that work. Once you open a journal, click "Watch Thread" in the upper right of the page to get alerts when new posts are made.
