    Hello hello,
    I am male and in my 20s, it's safe to say I'm addicted to porn and masturbation (I can't fight my temptations and my brain just jumps to it and before I know it I've done the deed... Addicted, yes?).

    I realise how long the problem has gone on for when I think back to a young age where I'd be fapping here, there and everywhere. Probably from around the age of 10, maybe even younger, I'd try fapping discretely when in public, from urinals to a hotel lobby (when I was really young, hahaha, I was brave).

    It's an awful habit and it's one I just haven't been able to shake. I have been very successful in many other habits, such as cold showers (1 a day for 286 days as of today), reading everyday, practicing several hobbies like languages and instruments, working out, etc, etc.
    However, nofap is the one thing that I have been so unsuccessful with. My best streak was probably around 20 days that I was aware of.
    As of today I am aiming for just a clean week and we will build from there! I would love and appreciate all your support and I will try and repay the favour!!

    Excited to get started, leesss go.

    Pffffft fs boys I've flopped it already and am back down to 0, couldn't help myself... Round 2! Hopefully I can reach a week this time. I think I really need some new techniques to fight the urges when they come (pun). My issue is I temporarily suppress them but then they come back in 5 minutes or so, so I guess they never really went away.

    Angry? Pray, talk to someone, keep a journal
    Lonely? Meet up with some friends or give someone a phone call

    There is one guarantee. You're going to get urges! Distract yourself bro. Think of all the reasons you want to quit and how much better you will feel. Private message me if u need to
