    Hello My Fellow Fapstronauts,

    I am 26 years old male, single and addicted since the age of 11. This ruined my 6 years relationship with my ex. I have tried numerous times to quit this destructive lifestyle, but every time I relapse there is a feeling of hopelessness and even question my sanity.

    I have read in the getting started guide that everyone brains work different and the healing process is not the same for everyone, which gives me hope. So if you can help me get rid of this ugly thing trough counsel. Please feel free to share your experience, knowledge or information.

    Regards

    Welcome to NoFap. We're glad you're here.

    Go through the forum, read journals, and interact with the community. You'll find amazing support here.

    Goodluck with your journey! Keep fighting

    Welcome. Glad you are here.

    Take some time to read the reboot material (available here => http://www.nofap.com/getting-started) and come up with a plan for what you will do when you are faced with urges. It has good advice, so don't skip it! :)

    Perhaps start writing a journal - if you feel comfortable telling people about happened and what's going on now, you will start to feel accountable to them. You may even inspire others. It's a nice feeling! This will help your recovery.

    Also, try to add something into your life that makes you the kind of person who doesn't engage in PMO. Think about doing:
    Something you enjoy
    Something you're good at
    Something important
    Something for somebody else, without thought of reward (and if you DO get an unintended reward, do something ELSE, perhaps for a different person or group).

    Read the journals of others - we all learn from each other. For example, I received the above good advice from a far more experienced member of the community who shared his knowledge. Don't just stay within your own age group or part of the world. Share your knowledge in a respectful way. Read, learn, apply.

    Look around the forums, get to know people. Everyone is friendly, and will try to support you. We're all in the same boat here. :)

    Be kind to others and others will be kind to you, both here and IRL.

    I wish you a successful reboot.
