IM A PORN ADDICT , BUT IM DONE WITH PORN

Hey everyone, I’ve been wanting to share my story for a while but fear and shame always held me back. Lately, though, I’ve found a new sense of purpose and I’m finally ready. I’m a porn addict in recovery — 8 days clean and already feeling more alive than I have in years. I’m noticing little things again, feeling confident, and reconnecting with life. I got introduced to porn at 11 by a cousin, and it slowly took over. For over 8 years, it numbed me, lowered my self-esteem, and held me back from so many experiences and relationships. Even in good moments, I felt disconnected — like I wasn’t fully present. Now, I’m done letting it control me. I’m aiming to stay clean for good, starting with owning April. Thank you to everyone here and to the creators of this app — your stories and support help more than you know. We’ve got this.
