Let's do this!

Hi, I'm from Sweden and I'm soon to be 20 years old. I've never been a hardcore porn user or jerked off more than a couple of times a week in general, but I still recognize my addiction since I've tried nofap before but failed in the long run. My longest streak without either porn or masturbation is 30 days and my longest streak without just porn lasted for about 60 days and ended just 2 months ago, so I've started to recover and have made some considerable progress already. I started masturbation and porn when I was about 13-14 years old, and have been addicted since. Lately though I have had some mental issues deriving from porn which has led to some sort of a depression, which really motivated me to continue deal with the root issue and be persistant with it. I really hope this will help, and since I have tried it before I will boldly go for a streak of a hundred days of nofap starting today. (I don't have any aspirations of quitting sex during the streak though) Wish me luck!

 

Thanks mate! I meditate a lot and try to relieve stress in ways other than jerking off and watching porn. I train, try to get out of the house and overall be active. I don't have a hard time being passionate about things so I try to use that to my advantage. Also I avoid being online since no matter where you go there are always stimuli everywhere, and even the smallest bit of sexual content is usually enough to make an attempt of nofap doomed to fail (if not immediately then in the long run). Something I can really recommend is to talk to someone close to you, like I talk to my girlfriend and my best friend who is also addicted to porn, which gives you comfort.
