    Hey, im new here, im not a nattive english speaker but i'll try my best.
    I wasnt sure about writing this, but considering i cant really talk about this to anyone, i think i need to get that out of my head.
    The first time i watched porn, i was around 11. It was with my brother and cousin, at first i was kinda shocked , and my cousin was already watching some weird shit.
    After that, i couldnt watch porn at home because of the parental thing. I've never really been a "sociable kid" but i wasnt that bad and when i was 14, i was bullied in school, everyday i was so scared to go, i was throwing up every morning. And that's where the porn comes in. I never really stopped. That became a bad habit , a reflex everytime i felt bad. And when i realised that i was addicted to porn and masturbation, i tried to stop, for almost 3 years but never could do better than 33 days. Im 19 and im done staying in the dark !
    I thank you for taking the time to read this
    I needed to speak im sorry if it was too long
    Stay strong !

    Hey man!
    It's definitely good place to write down what's troubling you. I feel you because I also gone through bullying and was struggling with depressional states. It's a good decision to stop that once and for all. I wish you luck on your journey.
    Stay clean out there.

    Hi, welcome to the community

    I would recommend you to stay in touch with members and read their success stories. You may also learn tricks to avoid the short-term pleasure and to face the temptations.

    Be AWARE of your habits and control what you see and what/who you spend your time with.

    It's also important to limit the usage of social media. In addition, never be free! Use your free time as much as possible and do sports, exercise, attend classes, etc.


    This video contains everything that you need to know about porn addiction. Lastly, here is a collection of ways to deal with the urges which worked great for me.

    ֍ You got this my friend ֍

    I recommend to stay active on this site as much as possible, to read about all the damage P and M has on your mind and body. For the first days, beeing active on this site, asking questions reading successfull stories, may help you stay clean and grow. Never look back brother.
     
  11. Hey welcome to the NoFap forum : )

    It's nice to see you here fighting the good fight alongside us!


    First let me go ahead and drop some helpful links for you:

    Getting Started Guide / Forum Rules / How to Use the NoFap forums/ Glossary/ NoFap Panic button / Set up your day counter / Rebooting Resources/ About NoFap/ Support NoFap


    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 advise you to be active on your profile(as there 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.


    Theres a portion of people who love communicating in the profile section..(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 give some 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/log (in the appropriate section for you) 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!
