    Hello everyone! I am not new to nofap but I am starting fresh with a new account and have decided to come back after some years of being away. I would like to hear some advice on what you would do in my situation to help a fellow out, you would be well appreciated!

    So I was introduced to porn in grade 7 or so by someone who found a site and decided to share it with us boys, next thing you know I became interested thinking it was normal and watched it here and there but by grade 9 at 14-15 years old I would watch it twice a week and got to about every 2/3 days PMOing (it's absolutely insane how young it starts but anyways)

    My highschool years were filled with terrible social anxiety, thinking of my classmates sexually, and thinking of every social interaction with a girl as a potential sexual interaction. Even when I was able to score that time with a person I would not be able to because I also suffered from PIED which at the time I just thought were nerves.

    I am 22 now and I have been watching porn for almost 10 years which blows my mind to think about. It destroyed my innocence and view of the world and women. I can't look at a women and not think of them sexually. I stare at women and rank them on their sexual attractiveness in my head and want to have sex with them. Even now that I have a great and attractive girlfriend, all I can worry about is her attractiveness and how there are tons of more attractive women who are probably much better sexually than her and give this a huge importance. So I'm never really happy and always begging for sex every day to her which gets on her nerves. Even then, it's not enough and I try to hide P under the blanket and it's ridiculous.

    I have been trying to reboot on hard more for 90 days for the past 3 years and have felt this light inner joy about the world when I get to a few days without PMO. After PMO my anxiety rises, I'm stressed and want to be alone for the rest of the day and all of the negative consequences come back and grow. I get back to PMO because there are some days where I'm not even horny but I get these annoying consistent desires to watch P, and they stay for sometimes the whole day and come back every couple days. The urges are strong and uncomfortable so I watch P to get a break from that.

    I just need someone to tell me that the urges are worth pushing through and they won't be here forever? How did you get through them?

    I am going to join the nofap support community membership, be an active contributer to nofap, live a more healthy life and do everything in my power to kick this horrible habit away. I am tired of being controlled and would appreciate any support or advice. All the best!
