Hello forum.

I am a 22 year old male and since around the age of 11 I have been watching pornography. I cannot well recall exactly what kind of material I started out with but it was certainly light heterosexual material, likely photographs of celebs or porn stars that I could find with my natural skills with computers. It only took a few years for me to get into the hardcore stuff, and before long my go-to porn was lesbian porn, which up until now I have favored above all other types of porn. That, however, is absolutely mild compared the the fetishes and sexual deviations I got into both online and offline over the past few years. They range from extreme porn, to cam sex chat, to craigslist and escort encounters.

So, recently I have dug up the will and ability to consciously observe where I had gotten myself in life. I have failed out of college, never had a girlfriend or real sexual intercourse outside of those arranged encounters, and had few friends who were losing trust and interest in me. And I knew that I was right on the brink of really hurting my family who also constantly wonder what is wrong with me due to my asocial behavior and attitude.

I have read the e-book Your Brain on Porn and also read some stories of people like you guys who were also struggling with the same kinds of things that I was. The scientific studies that have shown the harmful effects of porn have made me reevaluate society-induced views that I had of it, and the success stories have made me hopeful and curious of where I can go if I can relieve my addiction.

Will journalize my thoughts and progress.
 
Keep it up man.  Getting off this stuff is so good for you.

Also, check out RSD (Real Social Dynamics).  It's basically a community that has the goal of getting better with women.  I found that by improving my skills with women in real life, I naturally gravitated away from porn.
