    Hi, im 18, male and im addicted to porn. I watch porn and masturbate on a daily basis and have been doing to for years, i cont go more than 4 or 5 days normally without watching porn or masturbating and thats usually using something to distract me like going away for a week.

    I started watching porn at a fairly young age as i think i matured pretty quickly as a child and not long after that i started to masturbate, i've been doing it ever since multiple times a day. ive tried a few times in the past to cut down on this to no avail, each time feeling more and more like it was a hopeless task, i dont mean to sound overdramatic by saying that but i do feel that way and i feel almost ashamed to be this way. I dont want my day to be dictated by wathcing porn anymore.

    Writing a post on here is extremely hard for me for multiple reasons. I am naturally an extremely shy person and i dont like even posting a comment on youtube let alone talk about something im ashamed of, immnormally the sort of person to stay in the background and let others speak but im hoping by speaking here maybe it will be the motivation i need to stop my habit.

    I would like to finish this ramble of a post off by thanking anyone who took the time to read this, i just kinda wrote anything that came to mind, as i said im not used to this :) so i wouldnt be surprised if it wasn't even coherent. So thank you for reading and heres to a fapless future

    Let's fight this together LightLemon!
    We're all on this together. It's indeed tough. I could compare it with what Steven Pressfield call on his books as "The resistance".
    But tho it's extremely hard, it can be defeated. Let's fight it.

    Thank you, it's reassuring to hear that and I am sure that if we put our mind to it, we can achieve this. As much as I don't want to admit it but I had a large ammount of things- shall I say- stored on 2 memory sticks, to cement that i'm doing this I've just snapped them in two, I feel this is the first step for me

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and sometimes challenge you but not judge you.

    The enemy is here to steal, kill and destroy. What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

    At the moment my current thoughts are to remove all pornographic content from my home, i inten to use the day tracker to keep me motivated and have already signed up to the layers of hell challenge to push myself. I intend to try and keep myself busy and whenever my thoughts drift ill visit here and remind myself why im doing this

    Sounds great. Keep it up that way. Burn it all, throw it all away.
    BTW What is this "layers of hell" challenge?

    Well done by writing your story down, I recognize myself in it. 18y/o too, and starter early on with PMO.
    I'm in the fight with you, and have strong confidence that we can do this!
    Take heart :)
