    Hello all.

    I'd like to not use my name for personal reasons. I'm here because I'm in a rut. I've been an only child with one parent for awhile and as you might guess I got curious. Hormones and what not raging, I Google the obvious. Over the years my problem has gotten worse. I went from starting in the worst place possible to increasing the number of times a day.

    I'm embarrassed to say this but my addiction started in an adults office. They were not there at the time. I did not know what masturbation was but I proceeded like I knew what I was doing. Ever since that day, there's been an increase in it all. Betwen that time and the age of 15, I began to do it multiple times a day. To the point of exhaustion and lack of enjoyment.

    My biggest problem now that I'm 18 is that I'm in college and have the urge to look at women as objects. Which I know they are not but it's hard to look at an attractive woman and not think dirty. Especially when you're like me and you've had few dates. Also, I've been coeresed into thinking I was loved so that's not helped. Like I said, I need help in order to get my body back to normal. I feel like women can sense when you have abstained from it.

    If anyone else is like me or has any words to say that might help me see clearer, I welcome them. Thanks for reading and I hope you all are doing well.

    Hi @DistortedHeart, your generation is specially prone to this problem. You guys grew up exposed to high speed internet since you were little kids, so it is not rare to find a lot of people your age with porn addiction.

    I'm twice your age, and I'm just starting to deal with my problem. Now I understand that this addiction made me fail in a lot of facets of my life. One of the things that I regret the most is that it made me fail at college, because it made my brain weak and very prone to procrastination.

    So, that's the good news! You are very young and all the important things to happen in your life are still ahead of you.

    Don't miss the Getting Started guide, it will help you a lot.

    Welcome! You are in the right place.

    No worries ....... you are human.


    Free tips for Success:


    1. You literally don't have to watch porn ever again. (self.NoFap)

    2. When PMO is not even an option (self.NoFap)

    3. Google: "The pain of self-discipline [4] is far less than the pain of regret [8]" ..... Find an image you like......... and save it onto your computer or phone. (Ex: Go outside and get some fresh air. Temptations usually last only 10-20 minutes.)

    4. Daily or Weekly Rewards -- treats or dessert (for good behavior); or buy something related to a hobby you really enjoy; listen to your favorite songs, etc.

    5. Some guy on line had this great advice: " Never touch your dick……[or female parts for women]."
    Tip……. when showering use a wash cloth

    6. Humor ....... Google: "Glad you could join me Mr. Bond". Funny, somewhat possessed toddler............... Anyone know the Villain the toddler is supposed to represent?

    7. Click on the NoFap "Emergency" button and find an image you like. Keep the image in an open window on your computer or phone (positive influence on your mind….. and behavior): http://i.imgur.com/bbWSvJx.jpg

    BONUS I -- Fasting can help you have more self control; and has many health benefits. You can skip meals; or entire days -- your choice. If you skip breakfast, you can use GREEN TEA (WITH CAFFEINE) as a low cost, mild, healthy stimulant that gives you energy.

    BONUS II -- Go to NoFap.com…………….. Encourage others or give them Advice [gets the focus off of ourselves and on onto others]. Works Very Good!

    BONUS III -- This may be the most important: Are You Willing to Do Whatever It Takes? (Get up off your Heinekin [butt] and go outside; go to a market or gas station at 3 am [anonymous supervision] and buy a snack or soda; go for a walk around the block at 5am. As soon as you make the (AYWTDWIT?) commitment -- there is an extremely High Success Rate.

    Good luck
