Day One

Hello all,

I'm a 23yr old male. I have been watching porn since I was a little kid, and now it started affecting my psyche. I feel much less confident in myself, my energy is low. I admitted to myself that I need to do this today, because I observed my behavior for the last few days.
I was on a trip, and there I recovered emotionally and my social anxiety went away. Everyone told me that I look happier than before and that I have that shining energy.

Aaaaaaaaaand, then I started getting high and watching porn again, and all when downhill.

Now, I'm on my day 1, and I have firmly determined that I won't look at that crap ever again. I have banned all known websites on my laptop, and search engines are on safe search.

If I have any urges I will write here.
Going to 90!
