Hi everyone, I am new to NoFap. I am married. I immigrated to the USA recently, but my wife and kids currently live abroad. I expect my family to come to the USA in the 2nd half of 2023. While my family and I live in different countries, I want to put myself together. Reading the "Getting started with NoFap" material, I can relate to many of the problems that PMO brings to life. I have masturbated since age 13, first using my imagination, then watching porn over the internet. I have experienced how porn escalates; first, I was aroused just by looking at medicine books' pictures, then I continued looking for stronger porn, orgies videos, gay porn, and even sexual intercourse with animals. All this, plus work life and being parents of a toddler, disconnects me from my wife in a romantic way, I have become cold and distant, and I hate it; I want to go back to being the caring and loving husband I used to be, I love my family, they are everything to me. I also feel down very often; sometimes, it feels like nothing makes sense or brings joy to my life. I believe I can overcome this and learn how my brain works and how to administer my reward system.
Hear you loud and clear my friend & i too am married to a lovely wife.... All the best to you sir & great support abounds here & you are not alone.
I wish you a completely different free life filled with happiness and love. 2023 is a great year for seeking freedom and fighting with PMO by doing NoFAP. Good luck in your journey. Sincerely!
