Hi all,

I'm a guy in my 40s who's struggled a lot of years with PMO.  It's been mostly a private matter, so as a next step I've decided to join the reboot nation to help me.  I usually struggle with PMO once or twice a week....I'm not sure if this is a lot or little, but I do know that I don't want it at all.  I'm a Christian, so this is a matter of sin for me.  I believe God forgives, and I can't work my way to salvation, but I just desire to clean this area of my life up.  If there are other Christians on the site I would appreciate your prayers.

Today around noon was my last PMO event.  I've tried to go beyond a week, but I usually fail.  It's probably been 2-3 years since I've went longer than a week.  My initial goal is 90 days.

Thanks and look forward to talking to you.

Twin

Hey man I can relate to that. I haven't been able to make it past 2 weeks since I started, which has been over a year now. I decided to make an account to see if I can get more help on my way to a non PMO lifestyle. This is my first post and I hope I can help people on their way to recovery. Keep going and don't give up!

Hi!

I am a Brazilian and I have been struggling with PMO for almost ten years. First I would understand the addiction stemmed from not coming out of the closed. I was married with a lady for eight years. But after coming out, it turned out that the problem hadn't gone away. Then, I would justify it with the fact that I had to catch up with my supressed gaily libido and have sex with men. But even after some time, it felt like not going away whatsoever. The opposite, the PMO came to rise or maybe I would face some instability, meaning that in some weeks I would get to control the daily urges, others I wouldn't.

At some point, I should ask for help since it was draining me emotionally and physically. Other than that, I felt like I was in turn placing my priorities on the back burn. What a waste of time! We just can't realize it on the spot because it seems that you undergo a trance, which disables your critical sense, your discernment, and the recall of the bad memories gathered as a consequence of PMO.

However, thanks to the ebook "WACK: ADDICTED TO INTERNET PORN", I underwent a 30-day withdrawal, unfortunately relapsing after finishing this book reading. I just don't want to go on with it anymore because I'm quite positive the consequences are negatively powerful. This is why I have decided to join this forum in order to have one more tool at my disposal. Currently I'm reading "Don't Call it Love: Recovery from Sexual Addiction". We'll see! ;)

I am not religious, but I think everyone should develop the capacity of self-control in order to put your life priorities in the first place. Otherwise, one would have to deal with the fustration he himself built up, instead of enjoying the positive sensation of achievement.

Thank you all for sharing your experiences!
