    I'm 18 still young but I've been PMOing for almost 5 - 6 years now but I've been trying to quit for 3. I discovered porn at a young age and ever since then I've used it as a means of relaxtion, or stress relief from a certain situation. I want to start nofap because I feel that I threw away my high school years. I was having fun and I had some friends and all that but at the same time I was always the one who was always distant or didn't do or talk much. I had a girlfriend and everything but never really showed her off maybe because of the social anxiety I have. Fast forward to today, I'm looking for a better job, but am having problems with the same girl ( it must be because she's going out with a lot of friends guys and girls and I'm just jealous ). I've been really trying to stop PMO for the last few weeks, but just relapsed last night. Every time I relapse I get pissed at myself and am in a sad/mood for a few days before I start feeling good again. I'm really irritated that I messed up my past and want the best for my future and I know I'm the only one that can make that happen. All I ask for is that my fellow nofappers give me support and advice and encouragement

    Intention is key bro. Quit this for the right reasons and it make it easier for you. Quit because you want to be better, because you knows its wrong, because its highly addictive and dangerous. When you enter into this, enter into this because you don't want to do it again. If you are doing this to not do it for 90days or so then whats the point? Just get it out of your life. Brother, Im 38 and things get horribly harder and more difficult at this age. You are still young, create good clean habits because trust me you will fall into a dark world if you allow this to control you.

    You will be fine. Watching porn is for weak people who can't control themselves. I was weak for many years and my desires and lusts controlled me totally. I was a slave to them and it pretty much ruined me. Don't let it happen to you bro. Its better to be with your woman and be happy in all aspects then worry about all these physical and psychological issues.

    Good luck bro

    Bro you know how many times I have relapsed? Trust me when I tell you its part of the process. You are retraining yourself to live without fapping. Brush it off and start it up again.. you may relapse a few more times but you are in the process of self teaching. Each time you relapse and start up again you pick up where you left off, don't think of it as starting over because your body is very adaptive. It's learning and when you go back to continue your body knows what you expect and things do become easier.

    Bro Im a 38yo man living alone and haven't fapped in 6mos. Things take time man.
