    Hi guys

    I have just signed up today and I have decided to turn my life around from today. I am a 29 year old male. Married with 2 children. Any I have successfully stopped drinking and the thought of drinking makes me sick. I did try and have a glass of wine, but one sip and my body just rejected it. I knew from than on alcohol is not for me.

    Now I have decided to quit porn and fapping. The reason is, it has turned me aggressive. For example if my wife does not want sex for a couple of days this would make me angry and call her names which will make her cry.

    When I do have sex with her, there is no joy or pleasure.

    So I would watch porn to make me happy which is sick.

    I would hire escorts to feed my addiction. It's embarrassing. I would leave feeling bad. Bad because I wasted money but bad because I wanted more sex.

    So today 24/05/2017 I have decided to quit. I have blocked all adult content on my phone and internet provider. When I see women in public I maintain eye contact and not looking at ass and tits. I will start talking to my wife as a human not as a sex object.

    Basically guys I'm here to change and I need help.

    Thank you for reading.

    Any suggestions are welcome.

    Good for you deciding to quit because you made an important step towards rebooting your brain.This process will take some time so you need to stay focuses on your journey and do not let the temptations take control over you

    Aggression is one of the things that this bad habit does to you and since you are married i would recommend talking to your wife -if you have not done that already- about your addiction and your journey towards salvation so she can help you remain in the right path and because she has to know that this is not who you are and this addiction is causing all these things.All these things that you did were bad and wrong but since you understand that you made some mistakes (after all we are all human and we do things we regret sometimes) don't think about them and move on forward learning from these

    The blocking of the websites is important so i am glad you did it and i would also suggest delete any pictures/videos of P from your PC and/or smartphone if you have any so even if you are tempted to see one of those videos or photos there will be none to look at.I also would suggest that you find another habit to replace this filthy one because if you do not it will always try to find its way back to your routine.Also be careful because the journey will be filled with urges and temptations but you must show strength and not listen to any of these voices in your head.

    I wish you well with your journey and i really hope you to succeed.I hope looking back at that choice and the journey you will feel proud by taking that decision.Setting up your counter is a thing you should do if you want and lastly i suggest looking up the glossary about the reboot and the sexual health

    Thank you for your kind words it has given me hope. I have deleted pictures off all my devices and I am also thinking of not looking at my wife as she gets dressed as this usually triggers me. It's hard because I grew up watching porn. I went to the shops to buy adult magazines at the age of 14. These shops were run by people who didn't care or question my age.

    Talking to my wife about my addiction is hard because I'm embarrassed. I wouldn't even know where to start.

    We all did similar things and ended up addicted to this but now it's time we put it all behind us and build a better future without that habit because now we know that it does only bad to ourselves.It will be hard yes but only in the first couple of days then it becomes easier day by day

    If you want to have a no PM journey then having sex with your wife is OK and it might help easing the urges but i am not sure because i am on a no PMO journey.Now on the other hand if you want a no PMO journey then having sex is not OK and must be avoided.It is clearly up to you which one you want to start.Now about talking to your wife i can understand how it will feel but i think that a burden will be off your shoulders.Start with telling her you need to talk and then explain that you are addicted to PM and that you are trying to reboot yourself and to become a better person.

    In my personal opinion i think talking to her is a must in order to receive help from her and also i think it will be better having someone to talk to other than us in NoFap because in the end i think you will feel better by talking to her.The decision though is clearly up to you
