    I am 29, i started masturbating when I was 12 and doing it with internet porn at 17 with 19 already felt the consequences.

    At college i passed from an A student to someone who was happy to have a C or a D, due to the shitty life i was living, at 26 I still had not finished College so i gave up.

    After 3 years without studying and unemployed my PMO habits took over my life.
    In the last 3 years I used to wake up at 2 p.m. drank some coffee and plug the laptop after 1 or 2 hours online I watched 4 or 5 shows and 1 or 2 movies, when everyone was already sleeping around 11 pm, I would go PMO mode until 6 am and then take a shower with the regret and shame of having missed another day.
    In the work days i wake up 2 hours early to masturbate and i spend the whole day feeling tired, if i sleep one night without watching porn and masturbating i would consider it a night lost.
    Sleep and repeat that was the last 10 years of my life.

    27/8/2018
    The day I decided that my life could not continue like that.
    "The good thing about hitting rock bottom there's only one way left to go and that's up"
    That day after another PMO session, and consequent regret and shame I decided instead of taking a shower and sleep, I went for a walk.
    During that walk i realized that i passed all my 20's jerking off seeing other people having sex, that's just SAD.
    When I arrived I took a shower and i started taking action to ensure that i would stay at least one week without PMO.
    -I removed the my computer from my room and put it on the on the living room
    -I removed door of my room and put in the garage (put it back two months later)
    -I broke the base where I put the laptop in bed.
    -Started searching online information about how to overcome porn addiction, founded the nofap forum and a channel named Porn Reboot. the videos on that channel and the story's of a lot of members of this forum have helped me a lot during those 100+ days

    Reasons that led me to try this:
    -I want to have a family in the near future.
    -I'm 29 and I've never been in a relationship.
    -Living with my parents.
    -Anxiety e constant fear of change.
    -Loneliness and isolation.
    -Shame
    -Constant fear of having someone mess around in my computer.
    -I managed to drive away people that a i cared about.
    -Professionally I'm stuck in a dead end Job

    The main reason i haven't relapsed yet is I don't think i will be able to do this again in time to still have a life, for me is a too high price to pay for a momentary pleasure.

    I know this will not solve my problems and it will not recover the time i lost but is a steep in the right direction a better future.

  3. I wish i signed up to this forum years ago. It wouldn't take 3 years to reach 100+ days and still not enough for full recover. I thought some amount of days will set me straight base on youtube videos concerning nofap.
    BTW CONGRATS ON 100+ DAYS!

  4. Congrats for 100+ days! Do anything to prevent releapse, because you Will not feel any pleasure from that, but Will feel worse than before you started.
     
  5. Nimareg, you've got it wrong! This IS a success story!!!
    What you did many here haven't made it (yet) as hard as they try - myself included.

    In think this is very crucial for you: acknowledge your own qualities and succeses, regardless of how small they may appear! Otherwise you'll just demotivate yourself man.

    You get it man!

    That's true for you as for everybody else: one can't turn back time.

    I assume at least one of your problems has been solved. However, stopping watching porn doesn't solve all our problems, that's also true. But it is a good start! Maybe if you examine how you dealt with this issue you can learn something from it so that you can tackle the other issues in a better way.

    Cheer up my man! Celebrate your achievement and go on.

    Sorry for the little rant. Congratulation to 100+ !!!!!!
    Stay sharp and clean.

    Well done, be proud of your achievement. Look forward to more positive experiences. Keep your guard up and keep going in the right direction.
    I started nofap a few months ago. I too realised I must make a real go of this first time. I feel accountable to this community and that is helping me.
    I'm nearing 100 days but must remain vigilant. I hope to join you in 3 figures soon.

    bro, i wish you all the best. I´m sure you have had a hard time but thats indeed one more reason to quit it for good. NoFap is like climbing a mountain: you have to start at the bottom.
    It will be a hard time climbing but when you reached the peek you may look back and say it was all worth it. You will then move on for the next, for the bigger mountain :)
    greetings from germany and i hope your dreams of a familiy will come true. You already talk like a responsible father and husband: wise and caring

    Congrats, friend! Keep up the amazing work! Remember that success is something we built every day, not in a distant and uncertain future day.

    Most people don't even have the self control to realize they have a problem, the fact that you were able to take a walk and take that corrective action is a big step! Just stick to it!
     
  11. Try and focus on studies,pursue some courses here and there. Don't go in a relationship until you've secured a job that you can actually call a real job. Good luck,my friend.

    Good going Brother!
    I can relate to you even though Iam a little Younger. PM fucks your life up to such a bad extent, IT too took me sooo long to realize that I must stop even though I had to battle it out with myself everyday over PM. But i kept blaming others and god for all my life's problems. How idiotic I was! only after taking a breathe of fresh air and stopping PMO for a while I realized I was solely responsible for all the shit going in my life. It was sooo possible to not let self harm happen to me.And yeah, If i could stop PMO now I surely could ve earlier. the only thing I was missing in my bag was motivation, and thats where this site came in handy. Brother if you could reach 100 days than believe me you can beat this filthy addiction and its not too late yet, trust me as you will walk past the coming days you will realize it Yourself that life is still beautiful as it was 10 years ago the only thing missing was you.
    Lots of Luck!:):D
