I lost NNN and I regret it (every year I'm lying to myself by saying that I'll do it this year, but hey, nothing I can do about it; tho the best thing that I can do for now is to survive till the end of the month with an imaginary HP left). Honestly, that's only the tip of the iceberg when it comes down to the way masturbation addiction (won't call it porn addiction, since the spectre of things that I was doing while ''doing it'' is substantially wider than that) has affected me. Won't get into much detail, but it's pretty bad. Gotta be honest with myself. Might be wrong, or right, but I feel like an important part of it is the fact that I'm still a virgin. I would love to hear anyone willing to share his thoughts with me. Your effort is much appreciated!

P.S. also, I'm posting this as a timestamp and journal of my journey of battling this cheap butt addiction, literally

P.P.S. feel free to ask any questions

Sure thing, dude. Thanks for the advice, it really means a lot for me! Also, keep your head up, and in case that you need a piece of advice or simply someone to be listened by, never hesitate to speak up. Never. Also, sometimes we get caught in the small things and forget how beautiful life is. Take care!
