    Hello!
    Right now I'm not sure that someone will read this. But I'm doing it as to say that I tried once more.
    Satarted like 6 years ago I think.
    Longest time without masturbation:18 days. A bit disappointing huh?
    I'm still young and everytime I do it, I feel more and more disappointed about life..

    In front of pepole I'm that "innocent" but when I'm alone, somehow I become a devil..but after I finish, I feel that inner conflict again and again.. It made me cry several times till now. I don't know what to do....

    Hey!

    Firstly, welcome here!. This is a place where you can tell us about your feelings, how are you coping with this addiction and also find good advice and good friends willing to help.
    Don't worry that much!. You are in the right place to put an order in things that make you feel bad, so you have taken a great first step towards reaching your goal. I was like you a bunch of years ago, and I know how does it feel, but back then I had no support from a Site like this one, so fighting was more difficult.
    Welcome again, stay around!

    I don't want to be mean, jomo. But ,"a great first step"? I think next week at this time I'll be masturbating again..
    And saying that you fought against it alone without the support of a site makes me feel like I can do nothing.

    Its being read Michael so no worries of being alone. Ive read through multiple post on this site and have determined that Im not alone in my quest to escape this addiction. I think you have missed what jomo was saying contextually noting that i have failed "alone" for most of my adult life. Finding a community that will support you through tge tough times is significant and consequently the missing component of my lack of success. I applaud you for taking this step and know that for me it wasnt an easy step. At the end of the day this site, as I have concluded, is merely a tool...use it to supplement your success.
     
  5. Hey @Michael_ ,

    I'm just a normal ordinary member. No moderator super powers and no special insite. I share my ESH (Experience, Strength and Hope) of what works for me.

    Just another warm welcome and a heart felt hello. This community has helped me so much.

    What worked for me was "working" it. It took hard work for me to complete a hard reboot (No pmo) for 120 days, then move into a Sex Positive mode.

    First, reading the literature published by NoFap itself along with reading journals.

    Then, doing the work. Writing in my journal and replying to introductions and other's journals.

    Finally, but not least, getting involved with the fellowship. I found it on the forums, but also in people's profiles. The forums tend to be longer posts, where the profiles tend to be more "conversational".

    That is what has worked for me. I like to remind myself that this community was here waiting for me with the lights on when I arrived. Now, I have to do my best to be there when someone comes to the community.

    For me NoFap is 1/2 program & 1/2 fellowship.

    Click on these people and post a "hello" on their profiles.

    I've found that the bricks that hold this community together are cemented with the support of the members of the fellowship.

    One of the ways I got involved with the fellowship was by reading some really great journals. Reading other's stories with their victories and even defeats is a big part of my program.

    Once you open a journal, click "Watch Thread" in the upper right of the page to get alerts when new posts are made. Here are just a few:
