I’m ______, born in 2000, and I’ve been here since September 9, 2014. I discovered masturbation at a young age, but when I got introduced to pornography in 2013, it started to cause problems. I won’t say too much, I’ve already written down some very important things for myself which I will put below. Why […]

I suppose I’ll preface with a little background. Skip ahead if you’d like. I’ve masturbated since I can remember.

The American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) has released what they themselves are hailing as a “historic position statement” on porn and sex addiction. At the center of the statement is an assertion that the organization “does not find sufficient empirical evidence to support the classification of sex addiction or porn addiction as a […]

COMMENTS: This new study (abstract below) is being touted as a “failed replication” of a highly cited 1989 experiment, thus proving that porn use has little effect of intimate relationships. First, it’s absurd to claim that experimental studies can demonstrate if porn viewing really causes negative relationship effects.” Experiments where college-aged guys view a few […]

Last night (early this morning) I brought a girl back to my place, that I know. As soon as she took her dress off I had an instant boner and she noticed. The old me would have been hesitant to even invite her over. And if I did, I would have thought of an excuse […]

I was a hardcore PMO addict for 13 years and in the last year I experienced very strange health issues popping up from nowhere at the same time.

Last summer (now over a year ago) I met a girl…let’s call her Rachel. Rachel was different from every other girl I’ve hooked up with–she was more fun, cooler, had a better sense of humor. For the first time in my life, I had caught real feelings for a girl and no longer cared so […]

I found out about nofap on Thursday November 12 2015. I was at my own rock bottom. I was habitually visiting prostitutes. I was addicted to pornography. I couldn’t have sex very easily if at all with a human being, unless I took pills or got lucky. I immediately threw myself into it and tried […]
