    Hey guys,

    I've been "trying" this NoFap thing for a while and trying to stop on my own before I knew about this for a couple of months. I really feel like its a problem in my life that I want to get under control but I just can't seem to do it. I know it has all kind of negative consequences and that if I can stick with NoFap ill get all kinds of benefits but I'm still having a hard time with it. P isn't as much of a issue for me as MO but it's still there. My biggest issue is getting on the webcam and talking with girls and then MO. I just relapsed on Skype again today on the 4 day mark, I'm planning on throwing my webcam away and hoping that helps. I can go the first couple of days no problem but whenever I get to the 3-4 day mark the urges get to strong and I relapse. I exercise regularly, I meditate twice a day, and I have a list of goals and benefits I look at every morning when I wake up and every night when I go to bed. I check the site pretty regularly and have posted like once or twice but this is my first one of substance. Anybody have any other tips or advice for me? I'm truly feeling powerless here and I desperately want some help.

    Removing temptation is always good. An alcoholic would benefit from not keeping alcohol in the house. In the same way if your webcam is temptation then getting rid could do a lot of good. But there is more to it. When you get the urge you might be tempted enough to go out and get a new webcam. I tried getting rid of my laptop to get over my P addiction but when the temptation became too much I bought another one and used that. I'm going to try dealing with it different this time by posting a thread on here more or less daily to remind myself to keep on the straight and narrow hoping the support from others will get me through. So my advice is keep posting and stay strong.

    Thanks for the advice. I'm ashamed to admit this but I tried throwing it away before and actually went digging in the trash today to pull it out. This time I threw it away in a place I know I can't get to it again, I just hope that I'm strong enough to not waste any money on this stupid habit.

    There's no need to feel shame in that. I can completely understand that feeling. I'm sure I've done similar in the past. But hopefully not any more. 2 days in now for me. Let's keep going.
