    Well at least you are here. Don't panic and don't rush. Your success from your drug addiction indicates it won't be as hard for you to quit porn. Porn/Masturbation or PMO is just like any other drug. And to quit it, you have to approach things a little sensibly. Just saying 'i ain't doing this again' after you jerk off is not gonna cut it. You will have to introduce some discipline in your life. No phone while you're in bed. If you use it for alarm, get an alarm clock instead. You get the point. Not watching porn when it's extremely accessible is not easy. Heck, I would even recommend taking a break from your smartphone for a while - if you can deal with that. Also, don't be alone. Go out if you are alone. You have children, play with them and be around them most of the time. Be busy. Hope this helps. Ask anything specific if you need to - we're all here to help

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and sometimes challenge you but not judge you.

    The enemy is here to steal, kill and destroy. What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

    hey @irish11! I recommend you checking out the Getting Started Guide found here. It was very helpful for me in setting goals and deciding how NoFap can best serve me. Blessings man, you've made a good choice coming here!
