    Hey everyone,
    This is to introduce myself and provide background on why I am here and seriously starting this journey. Probably going to be a long post..

    I am 25 years old and have been fighting with porn, and masturbation since like high school.
    First time I ever slept with a woman I couldn't even finish since I had desensitization.
    Anyways that didn't last long as I didn't really care for her.
    Fast forward about 6 months and I find what I believe to be the love of my life.
    After a couple weeks of flirting we hooked up after work in her car.

    We dated for 7 years and for the first couple of years I didn't struggle with this issue.
    I began to struggle again and haven't been able to get a grasp on the issue for more than a couple of months and I believe its partly the reason we are no longer together.

    When my mind is on porn its hard to show affection and intimacy that is needed in a relationship. Sometimes she would want to have sex and I would have just masturbated the day before and I would either make an excuse because I wasn't in the mood or it would not be as intimate as it could have been.

    Anyways that wasn't the only issue as to why we are no longer together nor is that the only reason I am here.
    I am here to begin walking down the right path.
    After having a month as a single man I am realizing I will get absolutely nowhere with this kind of lifestyle. It's hard to focus on my studies and make any progress in life while being addicted. It's hard to be social when I have negative internal thoughts of what I have did in my personal time.

    The past 2 weeks I have made it a week then messed up. I will see if i can make a log on here for extra accountability and motivation.

    Anyways that's some of my backstory. Looking forward to the journey!
