    My Journey,
    Profile: Male, age 30, married with no kids

    I started watching "P" when I was fourteen years old. At that time I would watch it for half an hour or so and release at least three times a day. By the age of 16 I felt that "p" was not enough so I decided to have a girlfriend even thou it's against my religion. (I am a devoted Muslim by the way or I believe I am). The impact it had on my life at that particular time was worrying. At school I had trouble communicating with the opposite sex and even with my friends. I felt like my life was on stand still while everyone around me were succeeding and accomplishing their goals in life. My GCSEs grades were not the best because of this problem I had.

    In my early twenties I used to work as a bouncer and this had a massive impact on my life. I started realizing that I don't need porn as I was getting a lot of attention from women but on the flip side I used to have loads of one night stands and it made me feel low and worthless.

    I thought the only solution to my problem was to get married and this is where I am at now. I took my wife to Saudi Arabia to work there for four years. The culture was something that suited me in terms of not talking or seeing the opposite sex however when I came back to England I believe that the experience completely destroyed me psychologically, the fact that I was back to square one where I was finding it difficult to speak to the opposite sex. I was wondering why am I like this and when is this ever going to stop!! The matter got worse as my sex life with my wife had become non existence and I started seeking out escorts.

    This is the point where I feel I have completely failed in life and there is no point of me being here anymore. BUT I refuse to give up and I don't really know how long its been since I have watch porn or visited escort but it's been a while.

    The results are that I can enjoy my wife's company and I feel much more confident with speaking to whoever and even at the gym I feel more focused and energetic.

    The problems are still there in terms of going back to the escort sites and viewing them now and then but I am fighting it every minute of life and if I can't do it for myself I have to do it for my wife.

    I feel even better now but just typing all of this up and sharing it with you guys. God willing I can maintain this for the rest of my life. I know the demons are out there and its time for me to step up and take control of them!!!

    Thank you for reading my post!!!

    Sorry but it seems your problem is not P at all. First, having a girlfriend is totally normal, especially someone who you love and care about. That shouldn't be addressed as something that has weakened you. Second, you said as a solution to the "one night stand" problem you had, you married a woman. There is your problem. You don't marry someone just to solve a personal problem of yours. As long as I'm concerned, you probably don't love your wife, and you should be ashamed of yourself. In my opinion, going to Saudi Arabia wasn't a solution either. Instead of fixing the environment, how about fixing yourself first? The way you see the world?
    At the beginning of your post, you said that you think you're a devoted muslim? I wonder what does Islam really mean to you? Because everything you've done contradicts what Islam stands for.
    Look. From one Muslim to another, you being here means you want to fix things. That's a very good first step. It's never too late to take your life in your hands and start over. I'm in no position to tell you what to do next, but for the love of God, think wisely about it.
