    Hi everyone

    I did not know a support group like this existed and I am very happy to be joining in. First off, 5 days, NoFap, no porn. Just joined the March challenge on Reddit this morning.

    Quick introduction. 32M & Married. I have been addicted to porn since I was a teenager. Some sick turd showed me porn when I was like 5 or 6 (because he was trying to sexually abuse me) and it just stuck in my head. Started watching porn regularly since I was 13. Initially anything would excite me, but gradually my needs became diverse and perverse.

    Have tried abstaining multiple times and failed. Always because of some stupid excuse I gave myself or because I did not recognize a trigger.

    Since I moved to California and got married, it got worse. I started frequenting webcam sites (which to me is cheating on my wife and I hate myself for that). I even started considering visiting prostitutes etc.

    Finally got a hold of myself and shook myself awake. Hoping to make a lifestyle change here and glad to see I am not the only one.

    Best of luck to everyone and take care

    Brian

  3. Welcome sir! Can I ask where in Cali you're from? I haven't met any other Californians here yet, so I'm curious. :p

    Welcome @Brian Jhumroo and good luck. We have joined at a similar time and also share a similar back story. My only advice is to own the mistakes you have made in the past and use them as your motivation to change. This site is a fantastic resource and I have already been inundated with a wealth of information from other members. It will be your best friend as you tackle this thing, head on.

    I'll see you at the end of March, PMO free until then.
