    Hi Nofappers

    My name is Simon, I'm 27 years old and i'm from Austria.

    I first saw P with age 12 (maybe earlier, i'm not sure) and PMO'd daily from age ~14 on. That went on for over 10 years. I realized that I had a problem about a year and a half ago, that's when I discovered nofap. I had some solid streaks the first year and thought I had my addiciton beat, but oh boy was I wrong. The last couple of months were stressful, tiring and lonely. My addiction, still lurking somewhere inside of me came back and struck with full force and i feel like I'm addicted more than ever before.

    In order to finally commit again and to beat this addiction once and for all I want to join this awesome community. I like the positive vibes here, the encouragement and feeling of brotherhood you guys give. Together we can do this!

    I'm currently looking for an accountability partner that has a similar addiciton history than me. Check out my thread if you are interested: https://forum.nofap.com/index.php?threads/27yr-old-male-looking-for-an-ap.292214/

    Best regards,
    Simon

    Welcome! Even though you have slipped a bit in your recovery you have recognized the causes and you are trying to do something about it. Stress, tiredness and loneliness are all triggers that must be dealt with in a healthier way in order to not push the easy button that is PMO. I wish you the best as you start your journey here on NoFap. There are a lot of good people here who have learned a lot and can teach you how to recover effectively. Take care!

    Hi @Wonx92,

    Great to have you on the forums.
    I Echo your sentiments about the brotherly environment.

    I've found this forum to be very friendly and supporting, along with joining a face to face fellowship like SA or SAA.

    As long as we all continue to take personal responsibility for our recovery, we will get to where we are aiming for.

    This group can provide the accountability we need as well, I find the day counter to be helpful measure as it's clear to everyone else where we're all individually at with things.

    So welcome, and glad you found us!
