    It says that I should start with an introduction here. So here it goes (a pretty long one)

    My title says it all. I am 25 years old. I live in one of South East
    Asia countries. I wasn't even intending to really stop this addiction before. I was browsing through Reddit. Read some comment on a post there about a nofap. So here I am.

    Before signing up, I read through some of the posts here and felt like crap. Man... How I have wasted these years of my life with watching porn and acting on the big M. I checked on porn very often. And it always ended up with this shame.

    So, that's my intro. I am joining this forum for myself. I have never been open about this side of myself to anyone. I want to be honest at least to myself.

    I am a Christian with a support group but I don't see this support group to be of much helpful on this matter. I want to start this journey of "no porn & NoFap". I am open to anyone who will be willing to be my companion on this journey.

    :)

    Pretty well, lot of good advice on here to escape your cravings. A good tip I got here was to learn to love your withdrawals. The withdrawals you will have are a sign that you're rewiring your mind to your normal non-fapping self! Also nice that we can have a journal on here to record our progress along the way.

    I've seen a lot of people post that God brought them here. I know He brought me here. I love this site. I've received so much support, and have been blessed with two friends on here who have very similar backgrounds that compare with my own. I've read dozens of articles, and only one hasn't been helpful. Welcome to the site! I hope you find the healing you're looking for.

    Congratulations RSG!

    "This Is The Place"
    As you have already experienced, this site is beyond awesome! I so wish I had this support group "back in the day" I know I would be a much stronger person had I had the camaraderie and insight this forum has provided.
    I feel like Christmas morning every time I log in. New ideas, struggles shared, helpful hints and eyes wide opened.
    It sounds cheesy, however it is true, I have found a safe peaceful place where for the first time I can truly feel safe enough to open up and let the healing begin.

    I feel a duty now to spread the word of the gospel of "NoFap.org"

    We are all here for you and wish you the best in your journey with US!

    Let us know your progress so we can cheer with your successes, not matter how minor or short, and provide a soft shoulder when you reset.

    Love to all :)

    Thank you everyone for this amazing feedback!

    And so sorry for my very slow response. I thought any new reply to my post will end up in the notification but apparently it did not. I was just curiously opening my latest posts and here I am feeling horrible. You guys are amazing and I did not respond anything back.

    Thanks to this forum and Dima! I had found myself a Whatsapp group to checking up on each other. My first attempt after joining up the group peaked at 5 days. Had a relapsed when I was careless with myself. And today, I am on my 6th day of no PMO. So yay for myself! and again, thanks a bunch for VivaLaPunk, NewMe2014, FrustatedDumBunny! I am feeling even more motivated!
