Hello, My name is David and I think I have a problem. Over the course of my life I’ve been addicted to watching porn and masturbating. It wasn’t just once a day but it would be multiple times in a day. I’m 25 now and I feel like it’s time for a change. If you have any advice for me I would love to hear it. I will also update you guys on a day to day basis. I want to make it to 30 first then 90 days.

No lo sé, tambien soy nuevo pero vamos a salir de esto siempre con la fuerza de voluntad ... yo confío en mí Dios Jesús exitos
I had to look up what you said, and yes we will get through this together no doubt. Just please respond in English next time.
Thanks for the advice, but I would like advice from you, yourself and the systems you created to get through the reboot. Lmk thanks
Day 0 - 1: I fapped this morning about twice but it was not with porn so I’m glad. Last time I watched porn was probably 3 days ago and I feel good to be able to get away from it. I have urges to watch it but I’m just don’t with the corruption that it comes with. Overall my mood has been all over the place today. This morning I felt good and ready to go but once sun down I feel like I’m lonely and depressed. I’ve been going to the gym though and that’s and that’s what’s really been helping me go through things, it’s almost like therapy for me so my updates will include my work out as I’m sure that my lifts will be better when abstaining from ejaculation. Anyways I will be back tomorrow.
If you'll look at some of my posts you will get an idea of how I approach it - I'm more interested in a solid belief system that strengthens my ability to make the right decisions. False beliefs will drive you right into PMO, whereas correct beliefs will make it easy to say no. You have to weaken and root out the bad ones and install and strengthen the good ones.
Be strong and avoid using internet for a while and distract ur self everytime u get the urge by thinking about success in life It worked for me Goodluck brother
Hey thanks for the advice. That sounds like it would work for me. What’s your current streak/goal? I had to read your comment twice cause the first time I kinda didn’t get what you meant about false beliefs. I get what you’re saying now.
Glad you did not see porn. Work out is good. Keep a proper distance from the internet may help. Especially in the night. You may try hobbies like reading
Day 1 - 2 It’s been quite a stressful day at work, I was feeling good and getting stuff done but got yelled at and ruined my mood. It was almost to the point that I didn’t care about it but it just effected me. It’s different now though I mean I feel a lot more motivated to get better rather than feeling like giving up. It’s a constant challenge for me to stay organize but it’s going to be my goal. Also stay off my phone, I’ve been looking at my crushes Instagram the whole week thinking about her. She’s a stripper btw. I feeling more energetic today and got more stuff done. I just gotta out do my self tomorrow. So far I’ve gotten urges but not enough to break my motivation. Thanks everyone
Today I feel great. I think the benefits are kicking in. Been porn free 5 days not and MO for 3 days. I feel like nothing will affect my mood, more motivated and staying away from my phone. I’m very happy to be in this journey. I’ve also been getting morning wood 3 days in a row. Last night I stimulated my self for a little bit without reaching orgasm or edging, and I was hard for at least 2 mins straight without any touching or picture nor porn.The benefits I could already feel and it’s a great feeling to be actually free from porn.
Good job on avoiding porn. I would suggest to install some kind of blocker in your computer and other devices. I think masturbating can put you at high risk to going back to watching porn, so try to avoid it. Staying focused on exercise and eating healthy helps. Craving usually appear at night or when not busy, so pay special attention on those moments.
Hey how about me and you go through this challenge together starting about now at day 0 I’m 13 years old):
