    Hey all, i'm in for this challenge. I started on September 5 so this would be my first 7 days clean since some months for now, already feeling more energetic >: ) . Last time i made it to 28 days so i'm aiming to surpass that mark, i could say that i'll go for the 90day mark but i'm not used to say things i'm not sure i'll do, any advice on this?

    I want to do this challenge because i feel PMOing it's not letting me improve in my life, more like it's holding me back in many things, specially girls but so more with other kind of things that need the energy i'm wasting like exercising myself, studying and making music.

    I'm not aiming for hard mode since my goal with this challenge is to better my relations with women, in my last try things really improved -way much more attention from them and also sex was incredible.

    I've been working on myself with things like confidence and discipline for some time now and i know that masturbation and porn need to get out of my life. For me this is not just stopping this attitude/practice i'm having, it's part of my journey for improving myself. The person i want to become does not depend on this kind of self-indulgent behaviours, it works to earn them.

    I have all the energy for making this again, it has been a challenge, like many things on my life lately, but i'm staying positive, having patience with myself and trying to love me in every step of this way, even though there are times i hate myself. I know i'll make it :)

    You'll be hearing from me. Good luck to all rebooter fellas in here.

    Just a thought and I do not meant to undermine your goal, but perhaps a shorter more reachable goal would be more appropriate. I would hate to see a valiant effort to get to 90 fizzle because it was unrealistic. If your best is 8 days, then maybe your goal should be 20 days. However you choose don't let a relapse send you into despair. If you can halve your issue within the month then you are making progress. Keep strong and stay positive. You are making a change and any attempt to do so whether colored by success or by a relapse should be seen as such. Good Luck!

    Best of luck. That is always the most difficult part for me. I go online and my resolve can be shaken right away by some ad that I see with a seemingly innocent image. I have to make every effort to remain focused and get gone from there or to double down on my concentration and ignore it. Its very difficult but I'm getting stronger. We can do it!

    Day: 9 PMO Free

    I JUST DONT KNOW WHY! I got a call from a important person and it made me angry/sad, or its my brain looking for an excuse to PMO. So what do I usually do when I feel angry/sad and tired, watching porn and drop every responsbility from work and university. I did watch some glimpse of nude pics, but i was forcing myself to stop it everytime. I havnt M. Feeling lazy and depressed. I had a cold shower, but still I feel depressed and lazy. I want to go out, but I cant handle people's looks at me.

    Should I count this as a relapsed, since I didnt mastubate?
    I think I have flatline, or someting that makes my brain very slow and dump.
    Any suggestions on what I should do now? I am scared for going back to bad tonight.

    This is the first thing I do on nofap. I am in. I will go hard mode for the rest of September, and then see if I take a break or continue going. Running, training and meditating shall help me.

    I do this because I recognize how deeply negative the impact of PMO has been on my life in general. And simply because I want to be in charge and have the satisfaction of having made it.

    I am in for the September challenge in hard mode. I have three days so far and hope to make it to 112 - New Years Eve.

    I have tried to quit before, but I feel breaking it into challenges - finish September, sign up for November, etc. all the way to New Years will help a lot.

    Can someone help me with my counter? I cannot make a bar counter anymore and get rid of the older one?
     
  15. Welcome to the group. I am almost 67, a widower of 6 years. Before my wife passed away I did use porn and masturbated with no problem. Never had an issue getting it up for sex, although as the years went by it was at most once a week. After my wife died I did use porn more, had no one to look over my shoulder.
    I met a lady a few years ago, and although we did have sex I felt a few times I went limp to fast. I tried some ED Medications and it worked ok. I came across some article about the problem with PMO. It sounded like that could be my problem. Not sure about younger guys,but for sure as we get older there is only so much oil left in the lamp. I found that if I don't masturbate even if only for a week it helps me greatly, and no need for drugs.I have went as long as 150 days, and am now at 28 days. Good luck wth this issue.

    I passed the 1st half of September without PMO. It's getting harder for me, but I'm, still, holding strong. I must not let my mind control me and arouse me with sexual content.
