Heyyy welcome to the NoFap forum : ) It's nice to see you here fighting the good fight alongside us!

Here is just some advice:

First and foremost please take a look at each section in the forum, there might be something(s) you may find of big help to you. Feel free to post there :+)

Then secondly I just strongly advise you to be active on your profile(as there quite a few active people in the profile section). Please start by choosing an avatar and then make daily status posts to show you're active and needing support/encouragement. They've also got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see. People will find your profile and give you encouragement/support.

People (are beginning to) love communicating in the profile section..(it should be and is )mostly spportive talk but it doesn't hurt to deviate from supportive talk. It would be great to have you join in and support others in the threads, profiles, and journal, we could always use your help and in return you shall receive some as well!

Thirdly, You should also highly consider creating a public journal and write about your days in more depth for us members to follow along your journey and offer support to you by way of posting in your journal.

Last but not least: Good luck on your journey here, make sure to really give it a try with all your heart!

 

You’re lucky you are only dealing with porn and M. I’m bi so it’s even worse.

 

Welcome to the Nofap community.
The NO PMO journey is not easy but worth the effort.
Urges will again become very intense and there will also come times of flatline when you maybe wish there would be some urges. The community will support you. Without any religious fundamental ambitions (I hate this sin talking).

Well - I also know the time where there was no internet. Fortunately I never was porn addicted. I watched a few porn clips and didn’t like it. I instantly recognized that the subject was lust and not an emotional relationship between two human beings.

How is your coming out going on? How reacted your wife? Might be helpful when the partner is supporting you. But you have to accept when other people do not understand your addiction.
In this community you will find a lot of „fapstronauts“ who are also porn addicted and have realized they are addicted, I first had to realize that I am M addicted to start my NO PM journey. True happiness includes to get rid of any addiction.

Good luck to you and your wife. Maybe you want to make some commitment -not to the community but to yourself.

 

My wife was wonderful. She just wanted reassurance I loved her and I wanted to stay with her. Plus, I don’t do sex with other men, just fantasize.

 

I usually check the 40+ group. I look for guys with my problem then find 2 or three to converse with regularly in conversations.
Sometimes I just click on different forums to see what’s going on there.

 

Oh damn working from home must be the worst! That’s why till today I’m avoiding getting any job that solely deals with computers!

 

Welcome! ☺️
