Starting out

Hi,

I chanced upon this website and visited many links about porn-induced ED and discovered that I'm probably suffering from it. Honestly, I feel quite embarrassed to start talking and sharing about this but seeing that so many others have done it before, I told myself that I wanted to change and for good. So I'm taking this tiny leap of faith to talk about it here since I feel it will be awkward to share with any of my family/friends. So here's a bit of my story:

I started watching porn at around 12 and was already jerking off at around 10. At that time, I thought it was perfectly normal and so I grew up with it. Now, I'm 18 and I've done so many weird stuff just to make myself feel aroused and ultimately building everything up to an O. I always regret how much time I waste watching P and in the toilet or in my room wanking... But after reading quite a bit of info about porn-induced ED, I'm convinced that I'm suffering from this problem and have decided that I want to change for the better.

Currently, I'm having my major exams and perhaps it's the stress and pressure all piling up on me that has been causing me to feel very hollow inside. Guess that's why I took it to P and O the last few days to attempt to fill this emptiness but to no avail.

My exams are ending next week and after that, it will be the start of my holidays. I really want to start a new life and to overcome the problems of anxiety I've long been feeling around girls. So today shall mark my first day of this new journey I'm embarking on. I'm setting my sight of the first milestone which shall be the 30-day mark with no PMO. I want to see how this will pan out and I will try to share how I'm progressing over here.

Day 1: Feeling optimistic, yet scared. But telling myself that I'll pull through. Wish me luck!

I sound like a recording but here goes:

Take baby steps in your quest for no PMO.  The alcoholics say "One day at a time."

Then go one week.

Then go one month.

Get the picture?  Don't make your goals so far out that you get discouraged if you slip up.

Keep the faith and keep your eye on the target.  We are all in this together.
