    Hi guys. I've been masturbating for as long as I can remember. I think I probably started when I was about 14. Anyway, a combination of death grip and escalating porn abuse led me to ED, and the last few girls I've been with - I haven't been able to get it up for. This, obviously, makes me feel terrible. So I'm here to finally do something about it.

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and not judge you.

    What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?
     
  3. Hi @Nariven , welcome to NoFap
    It is a big step if you can understand what is triggering your urges, because this will allow you to be awake and kill those urges as soon as they appear.

    I recommend you to create your own "Emergency Toolbox" with readings that can be handy to read when you start feeling urges to screw up.
    I can share this post with you with my own Emergency Toolbox, it helped me a lot during the first few months, i had them in my cell and read them every time I started falling down:

    I wrote some tips in this post that perhaps will help you too:

    You can watch some interesting videos which are also very helpful in this post:

    I also suggest you to read "Breaking the Cycle" by George Collins, it is a must-read if you are serious about getting rid of this addiction.

    Last but not least, I would strongly recommend you to take the NoFap Academy course if you can afford it. The course is great but the best value are the weekly video calls with @alexander (the creator of NoFap and NoFap Academy) and Mark Queppet, where you can chat with them in real life and listen to other guys's stories and problems too.

    I hope that all this helps you to fight this shitty addiction.
    Let's keep on fighting

    Wow guys, I thank you sincerely for all the overwhelming support.
    It means more than you can imagine :D

    Honestly, my main strategy to prevent me from relapsing is simply to think about how embarrassed and worthless I feel about my ED. Especially as a 19 year old. I mean, it's not like I'm 80. I'm 19 for God's sake...
    It's preventing me from having a fulfilling relationship, and honestly, if all I have to do to overcome it is break my masturbation habit, then that is well worth it in my eyes.
    The funny thing is that I have participated in NoFap before, and it 100% worked and my erections were unbreakable, but then I fell back down porn/chronic masturbation hole again...

    I will also check out the resources that were posted in this thread. Cheers
