Hello, I have been addicted for 8 years. I did not notice the effects porn was having on my life until around 4 years ago. Like most people who have suffered from porn addiction, i started of small occasionally watching porn for 10-15 minutes for few days a week. Gradually my tolerance grew and i begin watching for hours everyday for years. I decided that it was having such a negative toll on my life and i had to stop. Ive been actively trying to stop for the past 3/4 years. Ive tried multiple different ways to stop such as; Online therapy videos, paid rehabilitation courses, praying & just pure willpower. Nothing has worked. I can manage to go a week at most and then always end up relapsing. I have found i go longer without porn when i am extremely occupied with work or exams. Even then it is a week at most. Although i am still studying at prestigious UK university with very good graduate prospects, I still feel as if porn as truncated my overall potential in life. I am at a point in my life now where, if i dont stop i can see the results of that will show sooner rather than later. When i was a bit younger i could get away with it. I have come across NoFap before but never decided to use it as i found it a bit confusing not being the most tech savvy. However now it is my last chance and I Need the help of the community to help elevate my motivation and drive me to freedom.
The symptoms of my addiction have exacerbated over time. These include;
- Excessive fatigue
- Anxiety
- Depression
- PIED
- Impotency
- Eye Floaters
- Lack of Motivation
- Chronic Back Pain
- Unhealthy Diet and living style
- Abnormal Sexual Fetishes
- Giving up my hobbies
My plan is to try and reverse these symptoms and recover my full life potential and reboot my sexual desires. My brain need a real good rewiring and i feel as if, my reboot may take a bit longer than most.
I will be updating this thread daily and aim to note my experiences and observations on my reboot throughout the journey.

Thankyou!
