    Hi, this is my first time trying Nofap and i prey it will help give me the strength i need to quite my porn addiction. I will be 33 in abiut a week, am married to a beuatiful women, have 4 kids, and run my own business. I have had this addiction since high school and i want my life back. I am tired of the shame and guilt i feel everytime after i look at porn. Even typing this is a step in the right direction as i have never told anyone in my life about my addiction.

    Welcome to the fight brother. Dealing with an addiction alone is nearly impossible I understand that feeling. It won't be easy but you have a new support system to help you now.

    Welcome bud. I’m starting this journey too, as are many others, so you’re not alone. Posting here among friends is indeed a good first step.

    Welcome to the Nofap community.
    The NO PMO journey is not easy but worth the effort.
    The community will support you,

    Maybe you want to make some commitment (like a 30-days or 90-days NO PMO or NO PM-streak) - not to the community but to yourself.
    Would be helpful to tell your wife about your addiction. Many wives are very supportive.
    I recommend to install a counter and a personal journal.
    Good luck!

  6. Heyyy welcome to the NoFap forum : ) It's nice to see you here fighting the good fight alongside us!

    Here is just some advice:

    First and foremost please take a look at each section in the forum, there might be something(s) you may find of big help to you. Feel free to post there :+)

    Then secondly I just strongly advise you to be active on your profile(as there quite a few active people in the profile section). Please start by choosing an avatar and then make daily status posts to show you're active and needing support/encouragement. They've also got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see. People will find your profile and give you encouragement/support.

    People (are beginning to) love communicating in the profilesection..(it should be and is )mostly spportive talk but it doesn't hurt to deviate from supportive talk. It would be great to have you join in and support others in the threads, profiles, and journal. Make sure and be grateful for the help you received and help after receiving some. Invest in some people's journeys. We could always use your help and in return you shall receive some as well!

    Thirdly, You should also highly consider creating a public journal and write about your days in more depth for us members to follow along your journey and offer support to you by way of posting in your journal.

    Last but not least: Good luck on your journey here, make sure to really give it a try with all your heart!

    Thanks for all the support. So far so good. A couple weeks ago I started weight lifting so I've told myself whenever I get the urge I'm going to go work out instead.
