Hi folks ! Here I am, at day 0, feeling ashamed as you may imagine. I've tried to quit porn and masturbation for years, but never managed to really quit it. Since 2008, I've never managed to abstain masturbating for more than 2 months. (Yep, that's hard to write and realize.) I've managed to quit porn for a couple of years, before falling back four years ago. I want to quit porn because I want to marry an amazing woman one day, and I don't want to be haunted by porn pictures when I make love with her. I want to be able to look at her with purity and genuine love. I want to be able to look at women as beautiful persons and not as sex objects. I want to quit masturbating because I find it pointless, and I want to get free from any addiction. It is also a dangerous slope to watching porn. So now, I'm on the same ship, but I'm not alone anymore. I hope your help will be the key for victory ! Thanks a lot ! (As you will certainly notice, I'm not a native English speaker, so please let me know if I make mistakes !) Edit : Here is my new challenge journal

Welcome to the community. Your English is perfectly fine, and you don't need to be ashamed of where you are. Every single person on this site has been at day 0 before, I promise. We all start there. Your intentions are clear and sound perfect. You're definitely in the right place. This is a great community and it offers a lot of help, guidance, wisdom and support if you avail yourself of it. So do jump right on in, the water is fine.
Thanks for your support ! I've set up a lot of strategies to avoid PMO. The new one is to commit to 1 post a day on this forum ! I will probably list all my anti-PMO tactics on my journal or on a dedicated section so it may help other people too.
Thanks D.J. for your help, I've read your posts, they are great, and they'll help me getting back on track !
