My Journey

Hello everyone.

I am an self employed salesman and entrepreneur.

I discovered porn when i was approximately 13 years old. I am 25.

I regularly watched porn from age 14-20 regularly.

I started to think porn might be an issue when I was 20 as I was still a virgin despite being somewhat good looking and having had interest from girls, I didn't have the confidence or indifference to get one into bed.

I have actively given up porn approximately 3 times seriously, then I have had spells where I haven't watched as much.

I have recently broken up with my LTG and have been sleeping with other women, with some I have had some erectile problems, usually the hotter the girl/less I know her.. the more difficult it's been.

I didn't watch any porn between 1st Jan 17 and 14th Feb 17 (45 days.) 2nd relapse 22nd Feb which was more severe, 3rd relapse 24th/25th feb, more severe and now certainly 'active' again.

I certainly noticed many differences during abstinence, I achieved goals of sleeping with women in the time where I didn't use porn. I was also calmer and most importantly more confident, feeling like I had an upper edge on my fellow men around of whom many must use porn. I also felt like I had more muscle mass, and was a more outspoken man, less fearful.

Current goals are to take in information related to my own information, the pros and cons I will be having from using porn.

 

Hi, thanks for your reply.

My current strategies are to employ getting up at 5am (5am club)
Improve my diet and health
Re-connect and improve my fitness routine
Re-connect and improve my goals of having multiple girlfriends/sex partners (best motivation for nofap)
Start a yoga class
Improve my image and grooming
Play soccer twice weekly and keep score of my goals/assists
Pass my driving test

I pmo binged yesterday, edged for hours and hours, rediscovering vast amounts of material that i used to watch. Once I took a dip I couldn't help but jump back in unfortunately, many guys seem to be able to watch one or two videos and finish quickly, for me I enjoy the pleasure of edging too much which is probably the dangerous part for my brain and health.
