WELCOME! Mazal tov on posting. It can be hard at first, but here I am about 4,500 posts later. Hmmm, Not sure what happened.

If you have an urge, you will find a way to access porn. Different people have different experiences with porn and masturbation if they do both, one or the other, and which one drives which. In any case, the tools for recovery are the same. Stick around. Read the handbook. Keep posting. It does get easier.

It's worth it.

take it easy Current streak: 317 days OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 7 Karma: 0	Thank you all for responding. I am here for the chizuk not to fall back when i feel its getting easier and for ideas to continue in my sobriety. I have read a lot of the hand book and many of the other books gye has to offer I also started the ftnd guideline book. I was able to hold up by limiting most of my internet access and a lot of will power

Hey take it easy.. Your name is one of the biggest mussers for me! Thanks!
Perhaps the "hitting rock bottom when your still up" GYE concept is relevant to you. Meaning see how bad this thing is and stop where your at. Seems like your going to be doing a good job. Hope you do well on your journey. Don't know too much myself but what helped me was to keep on posting and saying more about myself, and seeing what experienced people have to say on this. Hatzlachah!
