My Story - 

1. I am 42years old, struggling for 20 years with masturbation

2. Looking at pictures on the internet which are arousing. I'll cruise through pictures 4-5 times a week and masturbate 1-2 /week 

3. OCD, causes me to get stuck. I've been in therapy for that and I'm on medication which has been very helpful – – but I do believe that that has something to do with me acting out sexually. Always thinking of nude ladies

4. Relations with my wife are much less satisfying than masturbating which I'm looking to switch around please.



I am new to GYE as of three months ago and would like to connect with a mentor who can identify with my struggle and help me with it.



Thank You

JOE26
