I'm a 26 year old male. I've been using porn since I was 11/12 maybe and was always fascinated by it and the pure shock factor of seeing new genres. I'm been seeing escorts for about 4 years now and the last year have been constantly on the escort websites and review sites planning and researching my next appointment this is what have me the biggest thrill in my addiction.

Porn has definitely impacted in my PIED but I think there is some performance anxiety in there also contributing to that. Porn has given me an unrealistic view on sex and I feel its desensitized my brain for sex with women thus for this reason I want to kick PMO.

I was in a relationship up till late January with the most amazing girl until she found out about me seeing escorts while we were together. understandably we broke up and she was completely destroyed by my Lying and cheating and deceitfulness. I feel so ashamed of my actions and have lost her and perhaps maybe for ever, we are still talking and friends and she is actually supporting me through my addictions which I'm so greatfull for that shes even still talking to me.

Right now I've to just concentrate on me and improving myself. I've been doing CBT sessions over skype and I've website/browser blockers on my laptop and phone. I've been trying to exercise more also, I'm aiming for 5 days a week physical exercise and to meditate everyday.

I look forward to contributing on NoFap and talking to people in similar situations and bouncing ideas off each other.

I'm currently on day 5 of total abstinence of PMO,escort sites,escorts.

peace, stay strong!
