    Question is how did you figured it out that porn is bad for you and that other stuff

    My story:
    I had to visit my sister with my parents and younger sister and i googled something on my phone and it came out about 'what happens if you quit smoking effects' i clicked on it and saw ...so i wondered if its same with masturbation (i tought that masturbating is bad not watching porn) and then i saw some blog wich told that what will happen if i quit watching Porn and stop masturbating, i was surprised and downloaded pdf file called BENEFITS i was ultra motivated.
    So the truth is, the last summer i last 3 weeks and i expirienced alot of benefits cant lie
    girls looked at me slowly, i was more comunicative, funny had more sense of humor people told me that i've changed, matured and that stuff ..and after school year started i started to watch porn again, and again and over and over so i got back to old ...now its harder to fight then it was on that days i was desprate so i saw the blog yourbrainonporn and saw some succsess story wich mentioned nofap.org i visited it, joined and since then im struggling with porn and masturbation.
    The problem is when i relapse ...i relapse more times in a day cuz im demotivated but still im working on myself.



    Please, post your own story im curious about it ...and im sure that others are too :D

    I can't remember exactly when I discovered porn was bad for me, but I always remembered feeling guilty and terrible after I fapped.

    For me it was obvious from the very beginning but i wasn't able to do anything about it. Always after porn came MO, and every time i do it I feel bad, it's the worst feeling ever, but after few days i don't remember and do it again. Also i noticed that i need more and more stronger triggers, so it's getting me in dark place. Now i'm in place where i need to stop it in order not to turn my life into disaster. When i joined this initiative i found that PMO causes more problems than I previously thought, so now my motivation is stronger.

    The question is not to know when we realized that porn has a bad influence on our brain and body... But when we accepted it, and when we stopped lying to ourselves !

    From my own experience, I noticed that there was a lot signs that porn was damaging my brain. So many times I said to myself "porn may be your problem", and so many times I just ignored this hypothesis and decided to blame something else...

    Porn is our problem, and we all know it ! The next step is to accept it and change things ! You won't succeed if porn remain an option as bad as it can be ! Porn is not an option !

    If you don't drive eyes closed, why would you watch porn ? Both can harm you and both can harm others, so what difference do you make between the two ?

    Driving without watching the road is so pointless and stupid that I don't think about it... Because it is not an option anymore, I don't think about porn.

    Honestly, everything will be easier for you guys ! When I registered here, I saw all these guys in struggle to "survive" one little week-end without PMO. I though the challenge would be hard and would require many attempts just to reach one or two weeks. The fact is, I passed one mounth without even realizing I was doing so !
    I now figure out why it has been so easy for me : I am not in a situation of privation, I do not watch porn or masturbate because I don't want to.

    That's all I have to share with you tonight. I commited myself to come here when I would reach one mounth, so here I am.

    See you in two mounths when my 90 days challenge will be over (I do not see the point of coming here on a regular basis since this website is the only thing that can remind me of P and M)
    I hope my comment will help, and if not, sorry for the time you lost by reading it !

    ps: sorry for my miserable English, I not a native
