    Hi! I'm a 24yo male, gay, student. I recently learned about NoFap from the article about porn in Time magazine from two weeks ago. Tonight I'm starting a 30 day no-PM challenge.

    I'm in a relationship, so I don't want to forego O. I am sexually fully functional and PM have not had any significant effects on my relationship, neither physically, psychologically, nor emotionally. My problem is with watching porn when I'm about to go to bed. It ends up extending for two or three hours, which makes me go to sleep very late. Then I have no energy the next day, especially when I have to get up early for work or some other commitment.

    That tiredness extends for most of the day and sometimes it keeps me from being artistically productive (I am a music student and I have to practice a lot!). Then, that turns into guilt for not being disciplined with my work.

    I know I can reverse this. I have my own example of being disciplined with practicing my instrument and also from switching to veganism, so I want to go on this challenge to eventually quit porn forever and be awakened to a better creative life, no guilt, more energy, and all the benefits of a life without porn.

    You can do this.
    Good luck.
    Just remember that just like other addictions it progressively gets more and more out of control.
    If you notice issues now imagine 10yrs from now.
    Trust me I've been addicted for 29yrs. They go by quick and sadly I did not recognize my problem until it was to late. Damage has been done. All I can do now is offer help and support to others.
