Introducing myself to the NoFap community

Hello, everybody, my name is S1mon and I'm nearly 6 years addicted to PMO. First of all, I'm glad that I made a decision which was inconceivable to me a few months ago. Signing up for the NoFap community wasn't easy for me because I had to admit myself that I have a problem. As you know it is not easy to admit this weakening to yourself and even if you do so, your body will try to stay in its current state because it feels good.I never got out of this comfort zone, and even if I did so it took me only a couple of weeks and I was back in my comfort zone. This was so frustrating that I found myself on a deeper level with every failed attempt. Unmotivated in school, at work, at home, everywhere I have been I was tired, tired and disgusted with what I have become. A couple of weeks back I completely stopped with PMO and I signed up at a gym, with the goal to change myself internally and externally. It may not be easy however, it's never easy and therefore I look positively in my future with the hope to change my unhealthy habits.

I'm looking forward to being part of this community, and I'm grateful for any support I receive. Hopefully, I can help people and support people in this community someday with my experience and tell them it's possible.

That's all and I'm sure there will be tough times and reality will hit you hard, but with a little bit of help, we all need, we will achieve our goals.

With best regards,

S1mon
 
Hey

Welcome to NoFap! You are in the right place. My experience here is that I needed to learn the program and also get involved with the community.

The best resource I found was the “Getting Started with NoFap” guide. It is on the NoFap homepage and you can download it for free from this link https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/new-users-list-of-rebooting-resources.50878/

Then, watch this video:


It is really good and explains so much about how the blasting of porn images into the brain in high definition on high speed internet while slamming porn sounds into the ears with headphones can literally change the way your brain demands sexual stimulation.

The video explains it better than I can.

Also, a great page is https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/new-users-list-of-rebooting-resources.50878/ my experience is that by reading every link and watching every video, I learned so much.

Then, I got involved with the community. I'm not anyone special on here, I don't have any magic powers. But, I can say hello to new members, post my journal entries, remember to “like” peoples posts, and offer my experience, strength and hope where appropriate.

Looking forward to seeing you around on the forums,

L

PS - Think of pmo like a wolf. Stay near the center of the group with the winners and the wolf has a more difficult time finding you. But, stray near the edges of the community and the wolf can pick you off.
 
One of the ways I got involved with the fellowship was by reading some really great journals. Click "Watch Thread" in the upper right to get alerts when new posts are made. Here are just a few:

There are many more, and you can discover them on your own. But, these are great places to start.

This is a work in progress. So, if a journal has changed or is no longer active, look around there are some amazing journals on here.

Thank you for your response and thank you for providing me this information. I'll take a look at it.
