    I was on this forum before but faded out, I'm back and want to offer support and be supported as a part of a community - very keen on connecting with people and keeping each other accountable.

    Aside from AP I was thinking of a group idea: I see there's now a 12 step one in the Groups section, I wonder if anyone here has heard of Refuge Recovery? Briefly it is a fast growing recovery program based on Buddhist principles, but in case there is any confusion it is not mutually exclusive with other programs and spiritual paths. Just as there are some people who identify as both Christian and Buddhist, plenty of people in RR are also part of 12 Step. I'm curious to know if people here would be interested in a Refuge Recovery Reboot group... I don't think I can post links yet so anyone interested please Google and you can easily find info on it if you are not already familiar.

  2. Hey @Ongoingsupport ,

    Glad you came back.

    When I arrived here, I was very confused by the program. So many terms, ideas, different opinions. I was in some ways as overwhelmed with NoFap as I was with pmo.

    I found two things that helped me.

    First, was reading up on the program and figuring out where to start and how to work my program. The best page is the one with the list of all the resources available.

    https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/new-users-list-of-rebooting-resources.50878/

    That page explained the program. I read every article and watched all the videos on that page.

    Next, was the community. By getting involved, reading people's posts, remembering to "like" the posts, reading the post not only in the forum, but on people's profiles, I found a great group of people.

    This is a diverse community. We have religious people and secular ones. There are men and women. People with months of no pmo and those just starting out. As well, there are many different approaches to remove porn from our lives forever.

    Keep reading posts and profiles. You will find someone who is telling your own story. Keep posting your own story, someone needs to read it.

    Looking forward to reading many more posts from you,

    L

    Welcome @Ongoingsupport, it's great to see you back.

    As far as "Refuge Recovery," no, I haven't heard of it.
