    This is the first time I have written about my porn addiction; the only person in the world who knows about this addiction is my physiologist.
    I am 42 years old, married +3 (all under six years of age).

    And I have been struggling with porn addiction since the age of 12.

    Porn has been my escape from life when I am alone; the first thing I usually do is open porn, and before I know it, I'm 4-5 hours straight looking for a specific scene that I'm not sure even exists so that I can cum.

    In life, I didn't go to college, i never finished any course I took, and never held a job for more than 1-2 years.
    but I had luck in life; I have a beautiful wife and kids.
    And for the past two years, I also made a substantial amount of money from investments I took. Therefore, I work from home on my investments. That is until recently:

    for the past months, 90% of all my savings have been gone.
    All that I made left in stocks that went 90% down;
    instead of doing something about it while it happened, I preferred to postpone making operational decisions and watch porn all day; I could easily spend 500$ a day on live streams or buy 20-30 videos on manyvids website.

    I have tried so many times in my life to quit porn but never got to hold more than 5-6 days.

    I have decided to give all I can to get out of the porn cycle, but I'm not sure how to do this, SA meetings in my country are only face2face, and I cannot tell my wife I'm going to these meetings becouse she is not aware of how serious my porn watching behavior is.

    So i was looking for online meetings, and timezones are the exact hours i am home with my family or late at night.

    I was looking further to find a solution and found nofap. I am in here for an hour, but I read some posts, and I feel this might be the first honest step for really quitting.

    will appreciate any feedback with guidance to what is the best route. to really make this breakthrough.

    and thanks for taking the time to read.

  3. All the best to you on your journey. Imagine what your life will look like after you overcome this addiction. Keep that picture in your mind and work towards it. Keep the end in mind.
