    Hi guys, well is hard to admit but I have a porn addiction, I mean I am only 16 and this addiction has ruined my teenage years... My record of NoFap was 38 a month ago and since then I never reached 10 days. I feel so depressed because every time I say that it will be the last time I fail again and again... I always been a brave guy whit self discipline and self-confidence but when I started watching porn and flapping I started feeling depressed, I've lost my self confidence and the worst thing ever I started loss hair and acne appeared and I know that this depends of flapping because all in my family have hair and never ha acne. The last time I relapsed was few minutes ago.....
    I know that whiteout this addiction I can conquer the world and this makes me feel more bad. So I wrote this because I need your help guys and some tips
    I wil be grateful if you guys could help me whit this..
    THIS IS DEFINITELY THE WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED IN MY LIFE

  2. Welcome and you are taking a good first step. 16 is very good time for you to realize how serious things are for you. Why do I have the feeling that there are other things in your life that are causing you stress? Friends? Popularity? Girls?
    You should begin keeping a journal so you can examine your feelings. You need to take it a day at a time, at least for now.
    Stay healthy, and avoid being on the internet without a purpose. Don't bring your phone or pc into your bedroom, if possible.
    If you can do that for a few days you can make a good start. I am sure other guys can provide you with better tips, but right now you just have to take more charge of your own life. Can you do that?

    16 is actually very young. That means you can recover easy. It also means that if you keep going on, recovery will be harder. Many young people think they can recover easily when they get older but they face the bitter truth. That is some solid advice from @Ogikubo and I would suggest you take them. Always read the stories of the people who struggled with porn until old age to inspire you to stop it ASAP.

    You are young, but its great you recognize the problem and to start before the problem escalates into something worse. My recommendation would be to go without PMO for 90 days. It's not as hard as you think, and you can beat it if your maintaining a state of busyness. If you do get urges, try reading or do some push ups/sits ups, a little bit of exercise at least. I was your age when my PMO addiction truly started, and 8 years later, I'm only combating it now. You'll find recovery way easier at your age compared to some of the older folk in the group. Also, if you haven't already; DELETE ALL P, P-Subs and install filters. Stop using your computer or phone 30mins-1hr before you go to bed. Make sure you are eating healthy and no junk food. Make sure to exercise daily and seek a therapist if you are having mental troubles. These should be some of the basics required when starting a reboot. I wish you well my friend.

    Hey brother, don't be guilty, don't try to "force" yourself in stopping. It's not that you fail, it depends on the point of view. Maybe for now it's like that: you like porn. maybe put yourself all into that. You REALLY like porn. It's that true? I mean: when you open the browser incognito tab, are you doing it like a light thing or there is a rushing? When you are choosing the video, when you are feeling that sensations.. if you "take a breath" and stop the rushing just for a moment, does it make a change? In my case, i am excited. I know if i want to masturbate i can. I won't stop or blame, but it's me that is doing and choosing. And i know there is pleasure in sex and that's perfectly ok. But if i really put myself in front of porn.. That doesn't really satisfies me. So i've tried masturbation without fantasizing and watching any porn. Guess what: i don't really like it! It turned out that were my fantasies that pushed me up. But i want a real girl. And if i try to masturbate, without fantasizing i cannot. Without rushing and kind of going WAAAH it doesn't work. And the funny thing is that if i rush i cannot enjoy the experience!
    Don't condemn or stop. Just do that with full attention, with ease, with calmness. Don't try to make out some statement, just do. Maybe you like masturbation alone, but do that without imagining or viewing porn. Does it work?
    PS: now i enjoy being excited maybe more than orgasm with masturbation.
    PPS: the "rushing excitement" may not want you to hold back for a second while you are choosing and watching the video, full of that kind of sensation. But remember: it's just a sensation, you are in charge

    Look, i had exactly same problems, a bit of hair loss and very big pimples or red dots, this had me blushing to talk to other people because i thought they will make fun of me like "haha you are 18 years old full of pimples, you dont have a girl, looser". I watched a video on youtube about how to stop masturbation and there was one guy who said "THE MORE PORN YOU WATCH , THE MORE PORN YOU WANT" this had me thinking... This put me in thoughts and i said "You know what? its over!!, I will take control of it because im i lot stronger than just a porn video!" This is my story, tell me your opinion,
