20 and virgin m, trying to quit for first time.

Dude 11 days is awesome! Keep it up! If you are really serious about quitting, try these things:

1. Use Covenant Eyes or something similar to totally block all adult content on the internet
2. Find a trusted friend or an experienced pastor to tell about this, and see if you can meet with him regularly
3. Start making daily resolutions on how you're going to fight. Are you going to use your computer alone? Are you going to stare at triggering things? Are you going to check girls out in public? Are you going to stay in triggering situations that you could get out of? Hopefully the answer to all of those is "No!"

Keep fighting!

Hey man, this is my first post on here because your story is very similar to mine and I found solace in it. I’m ready to change. I started masturbating at a very young age and have been watching porn for as long as I can remember. I am 20, a virgin and relatively shy around attractive girls. I believe my problem is directly related to this addiction because I have no problem talking to nearly everyone else, and I stay in good physical shape. I have read articles how porn can make you put girls on a pedestal and I feel I have subconsciously done that. I am currently 12 days without PMO. It has been really tough but I’m glad there are others with similar stories to me that I can get this is off my chest to because I do not have someone I feel comfortable going to with this. I plan on never going back to porn. Good luck trying to live a better life I am right there with you.

 

It's possibly a silent epidemic. Society is slowly getting to grips with it. So you're definitely not alone.

And this is possibly the best decision of your life !!

 

Honestly porn is way too available I should’ve not been able to find that stuff at my age. I agree many struggle with it in the dark.

 

Always remember the day when you decided to get rid of addiction.
