    As much of the people I know that's been using pornography, I started when I was 12 years old, when I begin to see daily porn videos. Now I am using it to forget my bad feelings and I think I am not able to have a frustration (No matter how little it is) without spending 2 hours in front of a computer seen porn content. I've prayed, yes I am christian with some influence in my church, I've been reading about the possible damages of porn to my brain and the way the industry hurt people, but I still can't stay 2 weeks without porn. Now I am starting a 1 month detox, just changing my habits, without any internet blocks (This never helped me). Maybe it will work if I report here my progress.

    May God help us.

    Tomorrow is monday here, the hardest day of the week for me to keep strong. I don't know why, but I think it's the return to the normal routine after the weekend.

    Hope I don't fall again tomorrow.

    Looking forward to seeing you succeed in this. Lean into the frustration. It's real, feeling it is real, and moving past it without porn will feel great eventually. Porn is empty, treat it as such and find other ways to deal with frustration....journaling here regularly is one good idea, you have a audience that gets what you are going though and it's anonymous you you can let it all out.

    Welcome to NoFap!

    You can, and will conquer this. You will find freedom. I believed that I wouldn't be able to pass a week without PMO, but here I am on day 15.

    If I could offer some tips: Post daily, fill your time with things to do and increase your time spent with others. I firmly believe that posting daily, whether updates on yourself or encouragements for others, is what gets a lot of people through.

    Fight on brother. Fight hard brother!
     
  9. Well said, brother!

    Sorry guys, today I had to reset my counter. I was almost 4 days without PMO. But I think not everything was wasted time. This time, when I watched porn, my brain doesn't wanted it, I was fighting myself and I may have lost this time but now it won't happen.

    Thank you all for the words.

    Well, you knew Monday was tough.....now it's time to throw that idea away. Pick another day because Monday is hands off day. Glad to hear (part of) your brain didn't want it. The power to stop, even in the middle of the act, is yours anytime your rational brain wants to take charge. Yes, you'll have urges that want you to finish....but feel them and move on. Posting here helps....that's what I am doing right now!

    Need to start selling henna tattoos with a stop sign for the hands of Fapstronauts!
