Hi Firk, thanks for sharing your post. I am getting back active in the forum. I have been on a relapse for MONTHs, and trying to get back in control from this monster. I, too, have struggled with this for decades as a 51 year old man. I am in a long term relationship myself. However, with no...

11/22/21 4 days no PMO. No MW, and limited sexual thoughts. Very busy and productive day. Have started reading Easy Peasy, and will line up a few more books. So even if I am not busy, with alone time, and working from home, I need to address some issues which might trigger me to wander and take...

Thank you for posted the link to this PDF!

Thanks for sharing your story BouncingBack2. As a gay man myself, with PIED from porn, I can relate to dating within the gay community. Although, I have been in a very long term relationship off and on for many years, during episodes of break ups, dating in this community has been tough. A heavy...

11/21/21 3 Days, no PMO. From 11/2 through 11/17, I have had PMO, usually each night. It all started with a relapse, and then I went on this surge of my porn fix...not extreme, long hour binging, but the usual 30 mins to 1 hour of binging, which is a problem for me. It lead to searching for...

Tuesday, 11/2 Back to 0 today....I am hoping for day 1 tomorrow. I was over competent. I was very productive last night. Worked into the evening, read posts, responded to some. As far as I know, I had planned to get to bed and working on my 14th day, with no PMO. I went to bed with my glasses...

Hey Guys, I am starting back to day 1. I believe I was very over competent in getting through 12 or 13 days. I was completely fine with where I left off last night..productive, supportive, journaling. I went to bed, took my glasses and phone to quickly peruse TikTok (big mistake). Usually I...

Hello Guitar, this is the one thing that I can appreciate about this site...complete anonymity and comfort in sharing your deepest thoughts out and getting support. As a gay guy, I started off with women much earlier on, then now off and on for many years with a man. I can relate to the...

No, day 2 if FINE! I didn't think that I could get through day 1, as many of us on this site has shared. What is helping me also is to turn my pleasure for porn into anger. I am not able to have great sex due to PIED, while I am getting aroused/PMO by others doing the same thing I most...

Hello there, thanks for sharing this. I am finding that being truthful and authentic, sharing it in a safe place is helping me with this addiction. I am open to share support if you are open to it...the only way is up from this dreadful curse. Ordinarily, I would be prepping for my "nights...

Monday, 11/1 13th day, no PMO. Yesterday evening was tough after the gym. My libido is always pretty strong after intense exercise. I was craving porn really bad. Under normal circumstances, this would have been part of my night routine. I distracted myself with work, reading stories from...

Thanks Ziggy, very happy for you and that things are progressing, especially around MW and erections. You are on a great course and eventually, I know you will transition to a healthy, sexual relationship with your partner. I am a really glad I found this site and the awareness of the negative...

Sunday, 10/31 12th day, No PMO. Yesterday was good...relaxing. Spending time with SO, watching TV. No sexual urges, no desire to watch porn AT ALL! My brain is removing this daily stimuli and routine. Usually, the problem was at night before going to bed, but I am preoccupying myself until I...

Thanks Ziggy for sharing your back story. It's really relieving to be apart of this forum and get the support from folks with varied, although very similar experiences. My story seems so similar...although I have been off and on with a man for 35 years...presently 51. It really didn't hit me...

Hey Ziggy, The only thing I can contribute to this (without knowing your back story) is if it is similar to me, you are getting back to the physical touch and arousal without the evil aid of pornography. I am now 11 days no PMO, and I sleep naked and often touch myself..even a few times MO to...

Saturday, 10/30 11th day, no PMO. No urges for porn at all. I have noticed some weird energy...almost like lethargic. Also, was very moody today for some reason. I will be getting a few of the books to fully understand the brain chemistry behind this. So, another good day. Any day with no PMO...

Friday, 10/29 10th day, no PMO. No urges for porn viewing at all. I completely recognize how it has negatively effected me in my life. I am very active in the gym, and intense exercise in the evening does enhance the libido. Normal evening stuff, including spending more time on work and...

Thank you!

Thursday, 10/28 9th Day, No PMO. I did MO last night...was curious about arousal with gentle touch. I played with a flesh light to start wiring my head around intercourse with a person. Became stimulated to MO. I didn't think about any Porn images, only the act of sex. However, I will push for...

Congratulations...well done. A great inspiration for others with this addiction.
