    I'm a 21 year old student at Uni of Cambridge in UK and I want to quit porn and masturbation. I first viewed porn when I was 13 and recognied that I had a problematic relationship with it at 15. My longest NoFAP streak is 3months (unsupported). My recent attempts have proven to be unsuccessful. I've been listening to an audiobook entitled 'The Power of Habit' by Charles Duhigg, which has made me realise that accountability is the missing ingredient. My main motivations for quitting are:
    1. To prevent porn and masturbation effecting my relationship with my girlfriend of 8 months.
    2. To have more time for my hobbies: fitness, writing stand up comedy and DJing
    3. To avoid distractions in my academics and career
    4. To improve my mood consistency
    5. To improve how I interact with others
    I'd love to have an accountability partner or join an accountability group

    Hey welcome to the forum its good to meet you and have fighting the good fight alongside us!

    Some advice:
    Be sure and give a look through all the threads, you might find something to be of great help to you.

    I strongly advise you to be active on your profile; start by choosing an avatar and then make daily posts to show you're active and needing support/encouragement. They've got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see. People will find your profile and give you
    encouragement/support.
    ★People love to communicate in the profiles section and also the journal section. These are 2 of the most important sections. Also, we could always use your help in supporting members around the forum and in return you most likely will receive some as well!

    You should also highly consider creating a public journal (in the appropriate section[<-- link] for you ) and write about your days in more depth for us members to follow along on your journey!

    Last but not least: Good luck on your journey here, make sure to really give it a try with all your heart!
