I am 30 years old and have been working on this journey with NoFap for over 3 years. I have had a few successful 90 day reboots and a ton of failures over the years. I work a program of recovery in SAA (Sex Addicts Anonymous) and have a sponsor who I work the steps with.

Along the way in my journey of quitting porn and reclaiming my sexuality and inner peace I have quit using cigarettes, nicotine, marijuana, alcohol and eating meat (my choice but understand if that is not for everyone). These were natural progressions for me as I felt I could not give up my addiction to porn until I dealt with these other ways I was numb myself and try to escape. Marijuana was particularly important for me to quit as I started using it at a very young age and had very serious negative consequences from abusing it over the years. I attended Marijuana Anonymous for several years to overcome this addiction and yes I do believe Marijuana can be addictive for some people, it was for me.

Knowing someone else has done or is doing what you are trying to do is a game changer for me as it shows me what is possible so I hope I can share my experience, strength and hope with others who may be stuck in the relapse cycle as I was for many years.
