    Hi, I am a 50+ year old male living in the eastern Canadian province of Newfoundland (yeah, The "rock"). Yes, it is a lonely place even in the middle of summer and worse during a pandemic outbreak the likes of what is currently occurring. Anyways, I am rambling here.

    I have had a lesbian and nubile porn addiction for close to 25 years, and a cpr/resus fetish addiction that stemmed from the lesbian addiction for the last 2 or 3 years. And on top of all that, came an autism spectrum diagnosis 4 years ago (shook me to the core). I have had relationship issues with girls probably since the age of 10, mainly with crushes/infatuation, and the shyness/social awkwardness (from the autism) rearing it's ugly head. I have noticed in recent years, mainly from the piles of money I throw at porn sites/cpr fetish sites/portable hard drives for what I download to watch later, that I do have a problem with lesbian porn mainly and want to kick the habit. I finally watched the episode of "this is life with lisa ling" late last night and heard about this site and forum, and decided that I needed to take a chance at help. The nubile porn addiction has had a major affect on me with the development of a infatuation towards a high school girl that lives up the street from me, and I need to find ways to get that out of my system before I act on it (thank god for the autism with social awkwardness). As for masturbation, it's not a regular thing, but more of a turned-on thing from watching the porn/fetish videos which can be up to a couple of times a week or so depending on how many new videos I download/purchase and watch. I haven't even calculated how much money I spent over the last 20+ years on porn/fetish vidz.

    Same here I suspect having autism also. Just slowly and steadily leave all the bad habits it might take a couple of years to be entirely free of being an addict.

    IMHO, I think you would benefit greatly from getting an autism diagnosis, it may help answer some nagging questions you have in the back of your mind. I know it had a profound effect on me as to why I acted the way I did growing up.

    The forum has got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see.
