    I became a porn addict at least 10/12 years ago when I was a teenager. At that time I passed the SSC exam and got admitted to college. My family was very chaotic and they always created a very hypertension situation in my house. I easily dipped into depression and found out masturbation was my only survivor to get rid of depression. My father and mother were both mentally unbalanced. They shouted almost all the time. That was a very uneasy situation to live in my house. My academic life was destroyed because of the habit. I was not able to concentrate properly on anything. Now I am 31. Almost 10y has passed. I masturbated almost every day. Someday even twice or a third time. I have no friends and my social and academic life are almost destroyed. Now I want to become a normal person and give up all my bad habits. I have been doing NoFap for the last 15 days. I have grown confident and my mood also got better a lot. I need help from the community. I hope I will be able to live like a normal person.

    I think it's almost impossible to quit masturbating cold turkey, but you can kick the habit by replacing it with something else. Learn how to play a musical instrument, play a video game that has no nudity in it, listen to music that has no sexual lyrics, go for a walk/run, have a shower, etc. Do something that takes your mind off of sex, that way, when the sexual temptations arise, you will be able to do that activity to distract your mind from thinking about sex.

    It's not impossible. It's possible. I have been doing this for the last three weeks. You need to be determined about your improvement. You need to keep believe in yourself. That's all.

    If that’s the case, then clearly you don’t need any help from the “community.” You can do it, right?!

    Of course, I need help. I just said it is not impossible. Community is the palace where we meet new people with the same goal. We can share our experiences and help each other. I value your opinion. Thanks for your reply.
