    Hello Fapsronauts

    Im a 27 year old male. I've been struggling with porn addiction since I was 12.

    Although I felt guilty, I initially didn't think this was abnormal. But I see now that its had a bad impact on my life in many ways. It kept me from experiencing many things and gave me a place to hide and be comfortable when what I really needed was to learn, experience and grow. The fetishes kept getting more and more wild and has made me ashamed of what I have become. I had very high hopes for myself and in order to become the man I want to be I need to beat this cycle.

    Duration of period
    I want to start with 30 days. I don't want to put such a high goal that I will fail, I want to feel a success even if its a small one.

    Difficulty
    I think this wont be that great of a challenge but as I mentioned I want to set myself up to win this challenge.

    Other challenges along the way
    Some other challenges I want to commit to along the way are
    • Cold showers
    • Only watch 3 hours of TV during the week
    • Workout once every 2 days
    Failure of any of the other challenges will instate a two day setback for each failure.

    Tips for myself for things to do when I'm bored
    • Listen to music
    • Read
    • Pick up the guitar
    • Initiate in conversations with family members and/or friends
    • Do housework
