Nice to meet you all!

Hi, firstly I'd like to introduce myself, i am a 21 year old male, struggling with porn/masturbation i have been entrapped within this 'Prison' since my very early teen years. It all started out first with lingerie magazines where i would eventually start to masturbate to. That progressed into watching porn (just pics) and than videos, on the Internet when i got access to a computer trough my high school years i spent most of the time just masturbating compulsively daily without ever considering the consequences this would have on me. I now look back and see the devastating effect that porn/masturbation has contributed to my life i lost my self respect, i could never truly concentrate academically i was not very capable bad grades, test scores cloudy memory OCD it was such a waste on my youth when i consider it.. But here i am 11 days later and RELAPSE! I keep trying and trying and failing, i told myself i would register here on nofap so i can contribute and learn and hopefully gain a greater insight and awareness so i and we all can end this struggle. It's amazing what man is willing to sacrifice for that short outlived rush that eventually just drowns you in absolute darkness and regret. I look forward to hearing from you all. Peace and Greetings to all.- A.M.

 

Hey Pedro thanks for the kind words! I understand quite well how it is bud, this has taken over so many lives and lets not let it take over ours, the wonderful thing is that we have recongnized this problem and we have taken intuition to fix the problem. My goal is simple, quit for good MPO, currently i can go about 2 weeks solid before binging more or less. I am hoping with a new strategy which is this forums i will be able to gain greater and deeper insight into this problem so i can overcome it. I know too well that relaying on one thing to kick this habbit is easier said than done, i find it one must be elastic in their efforts to quit, not simply placing a k9 filter on their pc and hoping that will solve and cure ones problems. Truth is this is a much deepr and broader issue and no addiction is an addiction created overnight, the effort we took to establish it will take as much and perhaps even greater effort to overcome this addiction. I Look forward to chatting with you Pedro, hit me up if you need any support afterall we all are here to help and get help. Peace, -A.M
