    Hello all, my name is Elias.

    I'm a young man in my twenties and I suffer from masturbation and porn addiction. Pretty nice introduction, isn't it?

    Just lately I realized that I even have this addicton, and the severity of it. I just came to the conclusion that I have to actively do something about it, because my life seems to fall apart, and becoming a member of this community could be a good start. I hope I find some strength, acceptance and motivation in here, because lately I don't have any, and my addiction is becoming stronger, day by day.
    I decided to start my nofap streak, I'm on day 2 and I'm already freaking out.

    Thanks for reading, hope to speak to you soon! If you have any tips how to stop these incredible urges, let me know :rolleyes:
    Take care,

    Elias

    hi, i also just started today. its quite a difficult goal, but i think it is worth it. my first step was installing software on my pc that would block porn sites, as well as throwing out my lubricant, since i cant fap w/o it.

    recognizing that you have the problem is half the battle. you can message me if you want if you feel weak at any point. ill try to be on this site at least once a day.

    Welcome to the Nofap community.
    The NO PMO journey is not easy but worth the effort.
    The community will support you.
    Maybe you want to make some commitment - not to the community but to yourself.

  5. Heyyy welcome to the NoFap forum : ) It's nice to see you here fighting the good fight alongside us!

    Here is just some advice:

    First and foremost please take a look at each section in the forum, there might be something(s) you may find of big help to you. Feel free to post there :+)

    Then secondly I just strongly advise you to be active on your profile(as there quite a few active people in the profile section). Please start by choosing an avatar and then make daily status posts to show you're active and needing support/encouragement. They've also got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see. People will find your profile and give you encouragement/support.

    People (are beginning to) love communicating in the profilesection..(it should be and is )mostly spportive talk but it doesn't hurt to deviate from supportive talk. It would be great to have you join in and support others in the threads, profiles, and journal, we could always use your help and in return you shall receive some as well!

    Thirdly, You should also highly consider creating a public journal and write about your days in more depth for us members to follow along your journey and offer support to you by way of posting in your journal.

    Last but not least: Good luck on your journey here, make sure to really give it a try with all your heart!
