    Hi everyone !!
    Firstly , I Hope everyone is safe during this pandemic.
    I am a 25 year old guy from India and am a porn addict. I discovered porn way back when i was in school probably aged around 13. I remember the first time I felt I have discovered world's greatest treasure. It took me a long time to realise how pornography is destroying my life. Couple of months back I was on vacation with my girlfriend. We were going to have our first sex in that trip. I had never faced any sexual discomfort before in my earlier relationships. However my last relationship ended badly and I use to spend hours watching porn for almost an year while i was recovering from that breakup.
    During my current relationship, I reduced my usage of porns , but i was still watching them on regular basis. During our relationship, I was noticing that I am not taking much interest in orgasm and I was actually not getting properly aroused by foreplay. I assumed those are probably nervousness and kept on neglecting it. On the D- day , I couldn't perform and was shattered in the way. My girlfriend obviously was disappointed but was being supportive then. After coming back home , I researched about erectile dysfunction and read about impact pornography brings on ED. However, I still couldn't give up porn and was still using them after the incident. I found out about " NoFap" and decided to join. I am currently on 5th day without Porn. I hope this platform would help me in my objective of removing illogical sexual desires which pornography has planted in my brain & I would succeed in having normal sexual life again.

  7. Hey, welcome to the NoFap community
    : )

    It's nice to see you here fighting the good fight alongside us!
    First let me go ahead and drop some helpful links for you:
    Getting Started Guide / Forum Rules / How to Use the NoFap forums/ Glossary/ NoFap Panic button/
    Set up your day counter /
    Rebooting Resources/
    Accountability groups (new!)/
    About NoFap/ Support NoFap

    Here is just some advice:
    First and foremost please take a careful look at each section in the forum, there may be something(s) you will find to be of big help to you.

    Secondly I advise you to be active on your profile(as there a few active people in the profile section). Please start by choosing an avatar and then begin posting frequent status posts to show you're active and needing support/encouragement.
    The forum has got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see.
    People will find your profile and give you support.

    There’s a portion of people who love communicating in the profile section..(it should be and is )mostly spportive talk but it doesn't hurt to deviate from supportive conversations. It would be great to have you join in and become part of the team!
    We support others in the threads, profile posts, and journals/reboot logs.
    Once you receive some support, please be sure and be grateful to the member for the help/support you received and consider giving some in return to anyone you wish.

    Thirdly, you should highly consider creating a public journal/reboot log (in the appropriate sectionfor you) to write about your days in depth for us members to follow along on your journey and offer support to you on.

    Please start your journal in the correct section and with that, also try your best to post in the correct sections as it is mandatory and would be helpful to the mods who organize the forum. : )

    Last but not least: Good luck on your journey here, make sure to really give it a try with all your heart!
