    so I don't really know where to start, Im Tom, 17, Australian, finishing my last year at highschool, been watching porn for 4 years and masturbating for 3.5 years. Im fairly shy at school, I only really become my self around my close friends which i only really have 4 of and even then im not really entirely me, if that makes sense, partly due to my social anxiety and to just having low self esteem. Im hoping that by starting this i should be able to overcome some qualities and just be better, but i know this isnt any half assed thing that will work over night. As i said earlier im not really sure what goes in these posts so im just gonna list what i hope to be able to achive by taking up NoFap

    - stop watching porn
    - clean my self up
    - hopefully gain some social skills from an increase in self confidence
    - live a happier and more productive life.

    I appreciate any feedback, and will try to update every few days as exams periods are getting close. I just want to say thank you in advance amd hopefully once im able to come clean, i will be able to help anyone else going through something similar.

    Thanks, Tom

    One thing i forgot to add is that im going for the 90 days straight no porn, no masturbation, i feel like this will prepare me for whats ahead, i realise that this will be hard, and thats why im going no masturbation, because as soon as i give in to 'getting one out' im just going to fall back into this terrible, life hijacking spiral.

    I wish i knew NoFap 4 years ago when i was 18 but never mind i am thankful to have found it and also grateful for the help of the forum.Now it is time to repay the favor by helping where i can

    Well first i want to say welcome to the forum and i hope you remember your goals during your journey.Now NoFap will help you overcome the shyness but not magically because you have to make some more steps in order to become a more open person.That is if you want it otherwise nothing will happen.Your goals are interesting and very common i would say (nothing wrong with that just pointing it out).

    I want to give you some advice:
    1)Download the NoFap app on your smartphone because it will help you on those rainy days
    2)Set a clear goal and keep it in your head because you will need something to hold on when you don't feel like it
    3)Don't listen that little voice inside your head that tells you to do things that will end your journey
    4)Keep yourself occupied in order not to think about relapsing
    5)Find another habit -a healthier one- to replace PM otherwise you will have a gap in your head and this filthy habit will always try to fit in there again

    Now about the 90 days i recommend that this will be your initial goal because it does not mean that after 90 days your brain will be rebooted and you can do whatever you like far from it.Some brains take longer and if you start with the bad habits again then i have only bad news for you.Anyway i wish you the best in your journey and to defeat this demon once and for all
