Hi all. I am 32 years old and I masturbate with Porn somewhere in the region of 5 times per day. 
I have tried to quit before, and would succeed for about a week and then I would find myself at home alone and ....
I have never joined a forum or even really read up on porn addiction as it didnt seem to big a prob, but lately I find its affecting my work and definitely my studies.
Its very difficult to sit at home alone when on study leave and not take a "quick" brake with some porn on my phone and before you know it ive spent 3 hours surfing porn and masturbating.
The stuff I read on YBOP is so true in regards to escalation. It starts with viewing softcore stuff and before you know it youre whacking off to some sick shit.
Any ways . Im going to give it a real go this time.
I noticed recentlythat my work is falling seriously behind and then I realised that this was because I am spending about 2 hours a day in the bathroom at work, masturbating.  This has to stop.

Hey James, welcome to the party. I would recommend creating a counter because that has worked for me and every time I look at my counter it gives me motivation and I keep going. I am sure you have already read about the whole reboot process on YBOP website. You'll have all the support and help here too. I wish you good luck for your journey.

Ok. So feels as if it gets easier as time goes ( first 2 days the most difficult as you dont feel as if youve accomplished anything yet and the urge is there to pmo "I'l start abstaining from Monday" is one thought, but after 2 days it feels as if you have something to lose - if that makes any sense.) 
Ive discused this with my girlfriend, she was upset at first, but I think shes ok now.  Were still having sex, but she felt hurt and offended with the idea of it all and says it makes her feel as if she's not doing her "job" if I need to wank. Idid explain to her that thats not the case because we would somtimes have sex 3 times a day and I would still want to watch porn . 
Only tip I have is to be very cautios and sensitive when youre explaining this to your partner as this could lead to the end of your relationship if youre not careful.

I can relate to wasting time with pmo at work and multiple times a day and still doing it after having real sex. Keep up the good work.
