Finally summoned up the courage to post. Just turned 40 and trying to make past 7 days as my first goal. Usually get to 2-3 days then relapse. Best I managed in the past year was 9 days. Feels good to finally own up to my problems, I wish everyone the best.

Massive respect for joining the club @Sunshine_Rain . The support and community friendship is astonishing. No emotional blackmail, just understand we all want you to kick the habit. We know it is tough. But if you feel an urge and you’re online, just go to RN instead and post. I and others will read every pst. Promise.

Welcome! Ive found this forum really helpful and inspiring, it has helped me beat my past record. I have also been watching Your Brain on Porn and some of the youtube channels about porn use and addiction. Just for today lets not use porn!

Welcome welcome!
Post often and post whatever you feel like.
Read others or don't read at all.
I hope this platform will help you rediscover yourself and find your path to wherever it is you desire to get to.

Thank you to everyone who replied. This was the end of day 2. Day 3 is usually when my resolve starts to fade (especially on a weekend.) will do my best to come here nightly basis and read the latest posts/articles. Yesterday night was one of the deepest and refreshing sleeps I have had in a long time. I think due to finally register and no longer just lurking on here after feeling relapsing and feeling guilty.

Welcome, Sunshine_Rain.

Try to adopt a mindset of "one day at a time" early in your reboot. If you can do one day, you can do two. If you can do two days, you can do a week, and so on.

Glad to hear you got a good night's sleep. I firmly believe that sleep is very valuable and at the same time overlooked by most people.

Thanks for everyone who has replied and posted words of encouragement. New month let’s see how far I can get still 5 days seems to be my limit as the moment. Marking it in my calendar and trying to push through to 7 days and beyond. I wish everyone luck.
