    So excited to find this community... a big callout to my friend Josh for sending it my way! I've been in S-fellowships for 5 years now and feeling like I'm living in a life of recovery and fellowship, but still challenged by PMO on a recurring basis. I have had brief periods where I can see clearly how much better NoFap will make my life, improve my self esteem, help my relationships improve, and help me connect with others. I am ready for the next phase of my recovery journey!

    Best way is to avoid fantasising, try and keep yourself away from the computer, and use K9 if you can.
    Also, I find that using a PMO tracker is quite useful.

    Welcome Doug!, coolest kids cartoon ever, back on topic, you can use this forum by joing into the journal section and write about how are things going for you, you can also read other peoples journals to know their stories, there is always something we can share that helps us improve.

    Hello and welcome!

    This might sound a bit trite but this is a copied and pasted message because I think its important to greet people but don't have to time to type out the same message every time. So rather than just ignore people I figured it would be good to do this?

    Just to get you started can I just make the following suggestions (and they are only suggestions)?

    1. Head over to the forums at the top of the main page. Don't be shy. Wade in and see what grabs your interest. Start a thread. Help others and be helped just by getting involved. Plus its the PERFECT antidote to fapping!

    2. Check out the website yourbrainonporn if you haven't already and make use of the brilliant resources there.

    3. Consider doing a 90 day reboot and get yourself a tracker (see bottom of this post)

    4. Lighten up! Humour really is the best medicine and can really help you see things from a new and and helpful perspective. (And you need that more than anything right now. Right?)

    5. Consider reading the book 'Changing for Good' by James O Prochaska. Is a particularly helpful tool for those who want to make positive and LASTING change in their life. Several of us have found this to be an indispensable tool.

    7. Don't get into arguments (especially over the usual politics/religion stuff) We are all human here and we are in this together regardless of our chosen 'path' (even if you believe truth is a 'pathless' land!)

    6. Thank the founder of this site Alexander. It really is making the world a better place (I truly believe that!) And credit where its due I say!!

    7. Greet and encourage newcomers...;-)

    All the very best to you :)
