Doing our best

I’m glad to be here. I started watching porn at 15 and it’s been a constant struggle, even with a beautiful girlfriend. I’m about to turn 20 and want to be rid of it forever. I do believe that the reason that we struggle so much is the perception that we can’t be honest with the ones we hold so near. Who’d want to hear about a problem so perverted? Yet we champion people who attend AA. It’s a societal change we need to adapt to as a people, as a generation of (mostly) younger men. I’m very glad for the existence of this app, and I can’t believe that in an age where we can seemingly do anything on our cellphones, it took this long to treat an issue that we all have been stricken with since puberty. I encourage you to be more transparent with your family & lover, as the promises we make to them allow us to shatter through barriers never thought possible. It’s awkward, but you will feel better. And hell, it may inspire them to to better themselves. Admitting you need help is always the first step to recovery. We can’t live in this dream world where we continually celebrate strangers sex lives while the biggest porn “stars” live in Hollywood mansions off the dollars of an impressionable generation of addicted peoples.
