    Hi, my name is Gerardo, I live in Mexico and I joined the site because I want to self-improve, for I will take the maximum challenge, 1 Year! Yes, it will be hard considering I just joined here, but I majorly joined the site to get feedback and support on my quest for NoFap, I am a minor so I don't get sex, yet haha, well, I will do my best for both me and my girlfriend whom doesn't knows I have a masturbating semi-addiction, I want to become a better person and a better catholic by improving and fixing how I view women (No, I didn't chose my gf because of y' know..) I also want to improve my self-steem and get some willpower so I can make the right choices for my life, family and love.

    Wish me luck!
    -Jerry

    Welcome :)

    Why do you describe yourself as having a 'masturbating semi-addiction'?

    Should also point out that my best was like a month and 1/4-ish, I wasn't counting the days and didnt knew of this website either so yeah, I think I'm on the right track

    I see Gerardo. How about porn, do you look at that about the same amount of times you masturbate?

    EDIT: Over a month is a superb effort! You are definitely on the right track! :)

    Hmm well, in that month no, but recently (like for some months) more often, sometimes I just look at it but then just realize what in the world I am doing and stop

    EDIT: Where can I post my weekly updates? And should they be Weekly or Daily?

    That has applied to us all here at some point. So, you have good reasons to be confident about totally removing porn and masturbation from your life! I recommend you click on my counter and follow the instruction to make your own. That will automatically chart your progress from day to day. You don't have to start with a big goal. You could start with 7 days for example and, if you reach it, go back to your counter change the 7 to 14 and aim for two weeks and so on. Best wishes: IGY
