Welcome, tntang! This place is a great resource for overcoming this problem. Please look around and read some of the journals here. You'll get lots of tips and advice.

Putting K9 on the computer was a great idea. It really helps to keep you safe.

HI tntang!
Welcome to TTF! You will find much support and wisdom here that will assist you in setting a plan for your recovery.
I can see that you are very anxious to take part here at TTF and that is a great thing! Sometimes it takes a little time for others to respond to posts that are made. Try not to take it personally! It will happen! There is a lot going on here at most times of the day and therefore it is hard to keep up with everything!!
Take some time to browse around the site and familiarize yourself with the territory. You can gain much from reading the stories of others.
I encourage you to start a journal in the recovery journal thread so that you can tell your story and get responses from others. It really does help to get those thoughts and feelings out there.
Wishing you all the best tntang! TTF is an awesome place to be to fight this battle!
Jenn

Hey tntang. Your post made me think about the fact that I am kind of trying to be cool. It’s ridiculous! Even on a porn recovery site, I think about how I am presenting myself. I don’t want to be this way. I want to be really honest, a straight shooter. I guess I just have a habit of posturing because I am insecure. I’m a pretty kind person and from the bottom of my heart I don’t want anyone to hurt, but I’ve been lying for a very long time. I hope that facing my pa will help me be more true.
Anyway, sorry if you weren’t really asking for what I wrote. I’ll try to help you if I can. I think this is going to be really hard for me. I’m gonna need a lot of help.

I am sorry that you feel there are not many responses to you post. I feel bad about that, but you need to understand, that at times it is hard to keep up with all that is written here.
I need to go now, but in the morning when I get up, I will post here some things that you may need to do, to get a start on your recovery.
We all care about you, and want to see you do better. I will help you the best that I can
So in the morning, I will write in one of your posts here. I am going to bed

Good Night

Hi Tntang,

Welcome to TTF.

Nobody's addiction is better or worse than others, I believe they are all the same stuff - and the consequences of which are basically all the same no matter who it is.

I often forget to check for new posts by new members, and everyone else is pretty busy around these parts, so don't take it personally if people don't reply.

Have you considered starting a journal? This will help get your thoughts down :)

Take care and good luck on your recovery TnTang! :)

Hey TnTang, I am not sure about most members, but I don't always remember to look at the new-member welcome area. I just joined myself at the end of March as an SO & found that starting a journal was really helpful. My BF is here too as a PA, and he has found his journal helpful as well. Most people seem to read those. Just a thought, but hope it helps! Welcome to TTF, and I hope to read more of your posts!
