    Hello everybody.
    I am an aspiring Orthodox Christian, awaiting the day that I may be baptized into the Holy Church. The greatest sin in my life, and the source of my mental anguish and spiritual struggle, has been addiction to pornography and masturbation. I became hooked on it when I was a young boy, and have had a steady stream of it entering my mind since then. I have had a few periods where I temporarily quit, but I always came back to it, as a dog does to his vomit. I am tired of that, and it is now my greatest goal to overcome pornography, masturbation, and ultimately, the sin of lust. I intend to journal here, recording daily progress, seeking motivation and inspiration, and finding accountability. This is going to be difficult. It is my Goliath, but with the help of the Lord, His holy saints, the blessed Theotokos, and all of you, I will overcome.

    This is the first full day I have gone, and technically the second day of NoFap. There were a few times today while sitting home with nothing to do, when I felt the urge. But by the grace of God and the prayers of the saints, I resisted. Let's go.

    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!
