    Hi. I'm so excited to be a part of this wonderful community. I'm also very excited about committing to my goal: 90 days of no PMO.
    I'm now a junior in high school and I've been having a problem with porn for 6 years. It has taken a toll on me, I suffer from anxiety and low self-esteem. I have a problem with believing in myself, even when I made this goal, I sort of doubted myself.
    I really want to get rid of this side of me. I feel like I'm holding myself back from something better.
    I am so excited to achieve my goal!

  3. Hey, welcome to NoFap! :D

    I'm glad to see that you made the decision to join NoFap and get PMO out of your life. It's a big step. Just always remember all the reasons why you're doing this.

    I'm seventeen, and like you I've suffered a lot from anxiety, and issues with self-esteem. That's a big part of what brought me here to NoFap although I've had a few No PMO streaks in the past before I officially joined NoFap. Trust me, it does help. It helps a lot. Take a look at this post to see some of the benefits that NoFap can offer you. Those are all things I've personally experienced being on these streaks.

    Before I started doing these streaks, I was an anxious mess all the time. I had no motivation. I had no confidence. I just basically wanted to stay at home, and do nothing. That was my life for years. And even though I've had a few failed streaks, I've seen big improvements. I can get up, and have some motivation to get through my day. I'm not as anxious, and I can look people in the eyes. For years, my worst fear was giving a presentation in front of the class. I would literally rather take whatever penalty there was for not doing it instead of doing it. And after about five days of a NoFap streak shortly before summer break, I gave a presentation for the first time in years. And I wasn't even that nervous. That was huge for me! :D

    Stay strong! You've got this! :cool:
