    Hey everybody,

    So obviously I'm new, so I'll start out with a little bit about myself.
    I am 24 now, and I started PMOing at 11. Started out bumming Playboys out of the bins at the local recycle center (literal dumpster porn; I know, gross right?), soon moved on to the internet when that wasn't enough.

    When I was 17, I started realizing that it had become a problem, so I began trying to reboot. Needless to say, for the last 7 years I have been unsuccessful. The most I have gone is 6 months, but then fully relapsed. Since then I have usually only gone a few weeks at a time with relapses that range from isolated instances to several-month long binges.

    My reasons for rebooting are religious, but I've noticed a taboo on sexuality in religious circles, so it made me feel embarrassed about it and isolated. I'm really glad that this is a secular site devoted to promoting healthy sexuality because I actually feel like I can be open and won't be judged.

    I'm going to go hard-mode in three month increments for as long as it takes. Thanks to everyone for being awesome!
