    Hi guys,

    I'm a 28yo Male and I have been mastubating to pictures from magazines since I was 11 and then to high-speed internet porn from when I was 14. Since then I have been masturbating almost three-five times a day.

    I got a chance to get physical with a girl when I was 22, but could't get an erection. One more year went by and I got another chance with a different girl, but again no erection (This is when I started worrying about ED and now I have a terrible case of anxiety). Then came in another girl after two years, who inspired me to become a better person, and I somehow managed to quit porn for a year, when that relationship didn't work out I fell back into porn. (Although, at that point I didn't know about Nofap so it was all me). Then I lasted in a relationship with another girl for a short while, but I never managed to get solid erections. All this while I didn't give up porn.

    Recently, when I was vacation I met another girl who really likes me and I like her too, but we are in different countries. We are going to meet up again in about four months, but I can't get over my anxiety. I'm tired of screwing up my relationships because of my anxiety and PIED. I'm done with being a virgin, not because I can't get girls, but because I can't get an erection. So I'd like to get help from the community, to tackle this problem and come out a better person for my sake and for those around me. This time around, I am dead serious and willing to go to any lengths to get rid of this habit, my PIED, and my anxiety.

    For one, I have actually decided to spend less time on the internet itself and go out to form meaningful relationships with the real people. Two, I have decided to do things that I have always wanted to do like learning guitar. This I believe will help me get rid of the habit, but I specifically want to know how to get my confidence back. What did you guys do that helped you get your confidence back? It'd be great if you guys could give examples and detail your approach :)

    Cheers,
    S

    4 months is an excellent time to stay pmo free. 4 months would change you so much that even other people will find you different. Nofap isn't only about not fapping; it's a change of lifestyle ie making life productive in several ways be it physical (through working out) or mental (through meditation).

    You been to sites like yourbrainonporn.com and the sidebar on r/nofap has plenty of resources. Goodluck!
