    Hello everyone. I'm new here but I've been struggling with the habit on and off for a long time - it must be 30 years (I've only just realised that!). I was an active member on another similar forum a few years ago until the problem faded away for quite a while.

    I have now been happily married for 3 years. There are no problems in our relationship, either emotional or sexual, except that we have not been able to live together continuously for the past year and a half due to immigration restrictions. When I'm living with my wife the thought of porn and masturbation never enters my mind, except occasionally the relief that I'm free from it. When we're apart for a long time - I mean weeks or months - the habit comes back. It's not even really about sexual frustration - I don't feel that so much at my age - it's just a habit.

    I don't have a tremendous moral guilt about it any more. The main problem is that I sometimes miss out on sleep because of a binge, and I am aware that it reflects a serious unresolved psychological problem. That's why I've joined the forum and I would like to find a buddy to help me abstain.
