    This might be fun to tell but is it normal to have no boners in the process of rebooting? (My Alberto seems dead) 17 Days going without masturbating, feeling confidence coming and more energy into my body aswell, when i am talking my mind has 'blanks' but side that i am worried.. i might have damage brain receptors through the years

    Indeed that is the body trick. You innerself tend to deceive you little by a little and find a loophole to return you to PMO. I underatand all the tricks, it innerself will tend to deceive you to think that you can only get a bonner when you think or watch PORN. It be like "just watch this one P video to check if you will get a bonner or not, just check it buddy" This is the internal deception that built up during rebooting process. Stay calm and concentrate on the positive things in your life.

    Yes, depending on the person this is normal.
    Was the same for me until around day 35 (the confidence gain Kim hanson mentions), that's when your brain decides to throw in random thoughts and erections and morning wood.
    The number of days might be different again from person to person but I'm certain it will come. At least this makes starting out easier? :D

    This is actually something that doesn't affect me.
    I was always the "download movie and watch on laptop" guy. I'd rarely checked up sites online and never did I do this on my phone.
    At the same time, deleting my 2 TB of collection was a huge step, and took me several days to finally do.
    But, even though I know the stuff is always available on the internet, it was a huge relieve.

    In every aspect. You are still a young man with life in front of you, the early you quit the addiction the better. As for my addiction it has been a long road. I was addicted to every type of porn until it went downhill and the case got more severe i was starting to see animal porn since excitement wasnt the same, i had start watching Young Girls with Old Man, and i was thinking on my head that i was starting to create an issue because since the normal pornography no longer would satisfy me, i would go to this kind of pornography side. I've only start watching this things when i had 21 and i regret this deeply. I felt i was sick by watching this kind of things.

    It is my thoughts for masturbation.
    https://www.nofap.com/forum/index.php?threads/a-student-who-is-tired-of-so-many-exam
    Now I am not an addict.
    But sometimes some pornographic things bother me , so I come to here in order to get rid of evil thoughts. My approach to avoid masturbation is simple not to see, not to listen, not to think. But it is really difficult, my mind focused on pornographic things in the past years. However,I think masturbation is easy to get rid of it. Because of its obvious consequences,
    you feel lazy and don't want to do anything's. Your memory become limited,your emotions become changeable. Your mood is low. Every day is not your day. Though I am young, I has know the masturbation's consequences. I hope you will be your master. May you succeed. Thank you for your warm.

    Edit: added another quote, my post matches as an answer to both, however it was writen addressing the first one. :)

    I strongly disagree with this statement. Masturbation in itself does not do you any harm. We humans are sexual beings and martubation is just one outlet to it.
    The problem is, if it is done too often, or because you're bored, or (...) all that stuff.
    Pornography is also a huge contributor in this being a problem, if not the biggest there is. Your brain accepts PMO as a night spent with a new women for every new movie you watch.
    Now, as a man it would be quite the achievement spending every night with a new woman, and in your late-teens early twenties that is probably something you not only could but want to do.
    However, with porn this urge, this huge amount of energy goes to waste, literally shooting out of you.
    It also strongly depends on what you think masturbation is.
    If it is watching porn, wanking it for an hour or more gripping harder and harder and watching (frankly) weirder and more perverted stuff, you know something is wrong.
    If masturbation is really you with yourself, that's something different.
    Marc Manson (Models) actually made a statement regarding this in his book, he recommends his clients "healthy masturbation". I can look it up and summarize it but for us here we're doing reboots because we're in that hole where we have a problem and need to "reboot" our brain. Then we can slowly get back into a healthy sexual relationship with ourselfes.
    So, I say, and for me personally this is the main goal with all this, I want to regain this healthy sexual relationship with myself.

    I didn't have any abnormal sexual life with other woman.
    I admit my thoughts is too limited.
    But now my goal is to improve my physical situation. So I say I don't want to touch the pornographic things. A serious case like me is to help body stay away from pornography. Let bony do not suffer further damage.

    Ah, I may have skimmed through your first post too quickly :oops:
    It's true and some things are even the same thing I've written (more or less).
    Anyhow, this forum is a place for us to help each other. So, as long as you gain something from here, it's good.
    It often feels like the whole idea of nofap gets missunderstood and treated like the prude catholics (no offense to catholics!) from the 50s or 60s, where it was a sin to touch yourself and you'll go blind, and always keep your hands above your blanket and all that. This is a topic that could easily fill essays and papers far and wide and at some point I'll wrap up my own thoughts on this (once I finished the 90 days probably, as this is what most use as a milestone after the initial 30 days. Again, more on that later).
    So, keep at it and keep strong! :)

    Edit: Also, just edit your mistakes, no need for a new post. ;)
    If you want you can add the reason for editing at the end of the post like this. Seen that in other forums.
