    Hi Folks,

    I'm an introvert by nature but not shy. Was very active in co-curricular activities in school. Started watching pornography and masturbating since I was 12 years old but not so frequently. Addictive streak began when I joined college as activities were negligible. At some point, I got backlogs for which porn and masturbation needs to be blamed. Nevertheless I've completed my engineering degree this year.

    As I'm preparing for my higher education, I feel the addiction is distracting me. And also inhibiting me from socializing (I don't have social anxiety) and having relationship with girls. At times, it makes me feel empty within. Hit gym everyday except on Sundays but still no improvement. I try abstaining from porn but after a month or so, I screw-up. I feel porn and masturbation is spoiling my youthfulness.

    Heard about the NoFap and its success stories, so decided to join. Hoping to overcome the addiction once and for all.

    Peace to all !!!

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and not judge you.

    What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

    Although I've been watching porn couple of times, I'm still abstaining from masturbation(climaxing) for a month now. The crave for porn goes uncontrolled.
    In order to counteract, I go back to study or listen to music or watch some movies online and play violin or piano.
    Sometimes I get frustrated with counteractive measures and switch to porn.
    I study online on youtube and other sites, but at times the advertisements with the pretty girls, triggers it.

    Reporting on the 10th day.
    1/9th of the journey is complete.
    Only one day(8th day) I got the crave for porn but was successful in overcoming it.

    I forgot to mention while joining NoFap that I'm still a "Virgin" and also never had a girlfriend.

    You are among many others so do not feel like you are the last living virgin.

    Thank you very much Sir. It's just that I feel awkward at times, when I'm with friends having girlfriends.

    Comparison is always a trap we fall in and we always lose when we fall into it. Be proud to be you. You're a virgin, so what? That's can be a badge of honor instead of one of shame. Even if you don't feel like it is a badge of honor... be you like a guy who is not like them.

    You don't have to worry about a sexually transitional disease or an unwanted pregnancy, they do.

    Work on yourself to make yourself better.

    As a part of our Goan culture, we always greet elders with respect. Everyone deserves respect in this world where morals and etiquettes are getting obsolete.

    Damn! Just relapsed an hour ago... Feeling guilty. 21day streak screwed up.
    Was watching a movie on Amazon prime (actually I didn't know about the presence of explicit stuff in that movie). But then I started browsing porn with the intention of stopping after few minute. Unfortunately ended up with masturbation.
    Regretting about what I've done.

    Hi folks I'm back, I'd gone for some brief studies in another state. So couldn't update the logs.
    In the 3 month gap, I've relapsed only 10 times which is a serious improvement over the everyday addiction.
    So I'll restart my Hard Mode PMO challenge for 90 days and continue forward, commencing today(26th May) onwards.

    One week has passed. Compared to last attempt, I feel this time I'm much more confident and have low craving for pornography.
