I've been trying to break a masturbation addiction for half of my life and a porn addiction for the last three years. I've had great times and bad times, and the past month or so have been hard on me, so I'm here for another layer of accountability. I have a very amazing and supportive wife, but this has been really hard on her. I need a group like you all that understands what I'm going through. Looking forward to being part of this network!
Welcome to NoFap. You are amongst friends who are here to encourage you with no judgements. What are you currently doing to battle PMO?
Good on you for starting this journey towards change man...good luck. I started on here today myself. Let's do this!
Thanks for the support! I have a wife and a kid, so thinking about not disappointing them can help me if I'm feeling urges. I've gotten more open about it with my wife, and she's been great at encouraging me through this. I know it hurts her when I slip up, and it hurts me too, so I want to get to the point where it's not even an issue anymore.
I have also opened up to my wife about this issue in recent days and she as always is mature and supportive about it...we got married 10 months ago and don't have kids yet...today is day 4 and I'm going strong as of now, and I hope so are you.
Thank you all for your responses! Today is day 4 and going strong. I started up my journal yesterday, so feel free to follow along there if you want. The urges actually seem to have gone away, but I know they'll come back because they always do. So I gotta be ready to fight them when they come. I've blocked the websites that trigger me on my laptop, and I'm being more open and rebuilding a relationship with my wife. She's been an amazing support through this whole fight.
