    So I've always been dreading my porn habits.
    They bring shame and I can't get further in life if I pour so much energy into
    "Right click - Save, Right click - Save"
    Night after night..

    It's been 22 days after listening to Matt cooks youtube video about what edging was and what PIED was.

    I stopped for long periods of time before but never completely cured it.

    Because I didn't know it was possible or what I was doing wrong.

    The addiction itself has been for 10 years hence the name.
    The first time I quit was after watching the movie 40 days 40 nights.
    I didn't realize it was an addiction because the way people always encourage others that it's "natural"

    I'm 22 now and not even having a sexual relationship made me stop.

    I guess it was a stress relief turned into a bad habit after the first time I quit for 1 1/2 - 2 months or so back in 2012.

    So I went 20 days and had a "wet dream" that night :( and then was aroused to "fap" I only looked at one picture and then used it as a way to "get off". It wasn't my usual 2-6 hour porn use edging though.

    So will this affect my current reboot?

    Also I deleted everything that could lead back to an addiction but there is still music videos and tv shows that may have a sexy girl that reminds me of something I used to look at.
    So any tips to fight the urges after seeing this would be good.

    Also..
    I found this website after learning about accountability partners.
    So I'm looking for an accountability partner who can contact me via e-mail once a day or so.

    Thanks for reading best of luck to you all.

    Hi and welcome to Nofap. To help you quit porn/ excessive masturbation, I recommend the following:
    1. Set up a porn blocker on your computer
    2. Start a journal on the forum, and get yourself an accountability partner
    3. Watch The Tedtalk here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSF82AwSDiU
