    Hey, I’m Jacob. I’m new here. I will admit that my struggle probably isn’t as hard now as it used to be I still am struggling with urges from this addiction that I deal with. Most of the time I will go 5-7 days and then submit. I used to M as much as 4 times a day in my past though. I want to completely quit, mostly because of my faith. I know a lot of people don’t believe in God and I respect everyone’s opinions but my faith is important to me, and my beliefs are that this action and addiction are displeasing to God and is greatly damaging to myself. I just want to improve myself, and get better and stronger everyday. Improve my relationship with God and the people around me. And hopefully I will make some friends on here as well! Feel free to say hi as I go on this journey! Thank you!

    Welcome to the community Jacob, you will find a lot of supportive peeps here :) Start a journal, educate yourself with the resources found here, read other people's stories, motivate each other, find a partner who will help you through this, and grow stronger together :)

    I wish you all the best, please feel free to reach out to me if you need any help.

    Good. If that's your motivation, and it's enough to keep you from PMO, then find a way to remind yourself of it several times each day (that's what it takes for me, with my motivation).

    Kick around this site and the Your Brain on Porn site. Look at the situations where you used to fap, and make plans to deal with the situations and your triggers.

    There's a lot of help here, but you have to be here to get it. Plan to check in and let us know how you're doing. Consider a journal. Also consider a challenge or a reboot (I'm in a 90-day reboot).

    Don't drop this.
