    Hello all,

    New member here. My problems go beyond porn addiction mostly and it's about to make a whole wreck of my marriage, which I'm trying to recover after many adultery cases.

    Yet I also have excessive masturbation & porn addiction which I'm dedicated to tackle.

    Literally at age 36 I'm on a path to learn about "healthy sexuality", which I'm planning to start with "healthy masturbation" so if anyone has any tips&resources about this, would be amazing if you can share.

    Hi there @Ancalime, sorry I don't have any specific information on "healthy masturbation". But perhaps these basic principles could help somewhat?

    This is a great post about what kind of things could help you during your reboot. https://forum.nofap.com/index.php?threads/time-to-be-done-with-this.140257/page-25#post-1442099

    Try to add something into your life that makes you the kind of person who doesn't engage in PMO. Think about doing:
    • Something you enjoy
    • Something you're good at
    • Something important
    • Something for somebody else, without thought of reward (and if you DO get an unintended reward, do something ELSE, perhaps for a different person or group).
    Read the journals of others - we all learn from each other. Don't just stay within your own age group or part of the world. Share your knowledge in a respectful way.

    (And be sure to read the reboot material (available here => http://www.nofap.com/getting-started) and come up with a plan for what you will do when you are faced with urges to watch P.)

    Perhaps start writing a journal - if you feel comfortable telling people about happened and what's going on now, you will start to feel accountable to them. You may even inspire others. It's a nice feeling! This will help your recovery.

    I hope some of this at least points you in the direction of the information you look for.

    All the best,
