    I've PMO'd since before I could really O - you know, when dust would come out. I think I found porn on my own and assumed it was normal, especially once I found out that all of my friends watched it as well. I have tried to quit in a nonchalant manner several times in the last 5 years, but this time is different (as a true addict would say lol). I made a commitment to myself and I have biblical levels of determination to conquer the beast that is PMO addiction.

    I am currently on day 6 of my journey. Although I have not watched P for about 3 weeks, I wanted to reset the clock after cutting out MO. I came to the realization that MO had to go after reading Wack: Addicted to Internet Porn by Noah Church. P and M are simply too entangled to not abstain from both - especially considering my original sexual wiring was 100% PMO.

    I've walked through life too long as an observer and it's time for me to become an active participant. I don't want to be afraid of being human and I want to be in control of my future. More than anything, I want to rewire myself to a loving, committed relationship.

    I know this is going to be difficult, but I am armed with the knowledge and all the reason in the world to better my life.

    I look forward to learning from you guys and hopefully helping others as well.

    My promise to myself: I will be writing a success story before the end of this year.

    Welcome
    Please, start studying carefully what's happening in your mind > https://oceanrecoverycentre.com/2016/07/the-ultimate-guide-to-overcoming-internet-porn-addiction/

    First time without porn will be stressful , but if you resist , in some months you will feel reborn.

    If the first times a person relapse easly, it's okay.
    The streaks becomes even longer , day by day.
    Don't porn anymore, it's better to struggle and at the last to relapse than to look at porn.
    No more instagram pictures of models. No more erotic imagines , erotic stories or erotic asmr.

    We should improve in all area of our life, just being dissatisfied or stressed makes us relapse.

    An effective weapon to overcome urges and thoughts : mindfulness.
    The brain will try to win you and to get some triggers for the seek of dopamine. Resist

    If you need a concrete help you could install these porn blockers:
