Hello, I'm new and I want to know you

I’m new in the forum and decided to stop fapping to porn just yesterday, ending with 13 years of addiction. I hope we can share our experiences to make this journey easier.

Hey guys, thank you for your answers and your support.
I followed you, @NoFapNoDepression, feel free to add me too, here’s my code: 42rvym

By the way, I just found out that I keep thinking about sex every now and then. Even with a little stimulus from social media or a random ad in my browser or just my thoughts. I felt kind of disgusted about me for being like this but I’m glad I found out about It too. Does that happen to you too? And so, how do you confront It?

It does occasionally happens sometimes and I used to not be able to resist it, now I’ve made a commitment not to use social media at all, especially youtube or any other application or things that involves with girls even the smallest bit. This way I’ve atleast reduce the urges that comes every now and then. I still have a lot more advice to tell, but I’ll just sum it up into two things, first AVOID anything that triggers your urges even the things that you didn’t plan to happen for example if a s*** girl were passing by, LOOK AWAY, and quickly try your best to calm and control your mind, FORGET about it. Quickly do something that requires your focus. Second, is to always remember your goal why you’re doing this, and that if you’re going to give in think about the last time you relapse, how did it feel? Or if that’s still not working come to this app read the community posts, message someone, do your best to keep yourself company, away from the urges that’s trying to make you fall. If any of those tips still don’t work than I suggest you turning off all your gadgets, phones, laptops, or any other stuff that can lead you to PMO, go outside relax yourself, embrace the nature and think… Is it really worth it?

I would like to avoid social media too but that is also kind of an addiction of its own to me :laughing:
I indeed do what you said whenever I see a woman on the street. I noticed I have the urge to keep looking at women (no matter how they are dressed), so I just try to keep my eyes away from them.
It would be nice to actually stop using electronic devices, but I need them to talk to my relatives and to work (specially now due to the pandemics), but anyways, I think it’s good advice, in the past, I used that approach (cutting all temptations from their root) to deal with my smoking addiction, and now I’m clean for more than a year.
I’ll keep in mind what you said about remembering my goal, that will definitely help me with this struggle.
Thank you for your insightful advice, I really appreciate It.
Also I think the forum it’s giving me strenght on its own. Today, I found myself coming back to find motivation whenever I felt the urge to fap. I’m glad I found the community.

:joy: I laughed out loud at the image.
@645351 I personally look for strength to overcome my addiction to PMO by reading positive comments of people who are struggling as I am, and also try to help if I can by offering some advice or words of motivation.
I really like this community, the common goal really helps to make a positive and friendly environment.
