    The first time I can remember doing it was around 5, I watched the spanish channel growing up and there was always half naked women on.
    I was 13 the first time I watched an actual porn.
    I guess porn and masturbating has been an issue for me most of my life. It's been daily for years and years now. I all went really downhill for me when I was about 16 or 17 I got the black box that could unscramble the porn channels. Then it was $10 dvds,then the internet. I have about 150 gigs on my hard drive. Looking back it has definitely affected me in my sex life.

    I have a problem, I am however ready to start the process facing it head on.

    This will be one of the best and likely most difficult things you have done. You are not alone. There are many of us with similar experiences and problems. Take it one day at a time, never give up, and get yourself educated about your addiction.

    You can do it!

    Bro, get educated, get tools, and learn to love withdrawals.

    On the first page of the above link, first link you find there, click it. It is the Gary Wilson TED talk about how viewing pornography rewires our brain's chemical reward center. Porn is the button we push to get a dopamine fix. Once I saw Gary Wilson's video, I don't think I ever watched porn again. I am not saying that is how it will work for you, but understanding your problem is important to beating your problem.

    Good luck on your journey.

    Find your true motivation and hang on to it. That's half the battle.
