Hey, I'm new and, um... well, hi?

Welcome to the club man! You’ve already taken the first step which can be half the battle sometime

 

Stay strong Bro and hang in there, a P block would be great assistance to you by the sounds of things.
All the best

 

Hi,
As you mentioned, 99% of people here are porn addicts. That is why they will understand you. We all are together in this journey towards a porn free life. Since you are new here, I suggest you familiarize yourself with the different forums, groups and communities. You don't have to join any group by force, just have a look around. Also, become aware of some terms like flatlining, rebooting, etc. I would suggest, then, to create your own journal where you can describe what you did, about your day, your thoughts, anything. You can make quite a lot of friends in this place. Almost everyone is amazing and friendly here. I wish you all the best, brother

 

You are very welcome. You could start with working on developing a few good habits. For example never masturbating in bed. make it a firm habit that you always lie on your side and fold your arms across your chest. It is amazing that if you make it through the first few days doing that it becomes second nature and you just cannot bring yourself to touch yourself. you will get lots of good advice on here about avoiding porn also.

 

Welcome. This is a good first step you have taken. Many refuse to acknowledge their troubles but you have looked into the mirror and seen something you want to change. Come here often, read the posts of new people like yourself and me. See what we are all searching for and stop a minute to think of how porn has damaged our self-worth and how much we want to change that. Watch the videos on the damaging effects of porn on us. Do this often as you begin to break the habit, taking it one day at a time, one small victory each day. Porn is powerful and seductive, but just think of how they don't give a damn about us and see us as a stream of money and hits. They want to normalize this, make it seem natural and fun. But each and every one of those actresses is someone's wife, girlfriend, sister, daughter, niece, etc. Real people just like the girls you might know, girls you would never wish that lifestyle on. And a lot of them are not happy and rich, but scared and poor. Think of that, of anything, the next time you feel you are relapsing. You can do this; once you get through the first few days you begin to see there is a light at the end of the tunnel. One day at a time, man. Keep us informed.

 

NP mate! We are truly in the same boat

 

Actually I’m on day two. I haven’t updated that yet. And it’s good you’re taking steps to ger better and stay away. The best way to not mess up is to stay away from triggers. I especially feel ya on the lonliness and lowliness 100%, but having someone to talk to helps

 

It’s a tough battle, but you’re already making the push to change. This support group is what I think will help me as well as anyone else

 

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. It is a good feeling to be moving away from this. Good luck.

 

What are your triggers?

 

That’s understandable. Most of those things lead to pmo. Are you trying to quit both porn and masturbation, or just one?

 

No I gotcha. Wanna pick this up in a PM?
