I recently celebrated 1 year without PMO. Thanks to lots of good support and encouragement I received from my brothers in the Christian group on this forum. My life began improving after 60 days PMO free. Most notably my attitude and moods changed for the better. I began to re-gain control of my life. I am now able to resist temptations without hesitation, before I let them play out in my imagination and spiral out of control. My job and family life are continuing to improve. Most importantly, my relationship with God is better. He is revealing his plans for my life post PMO and they are exciting. PMO had me locked in a cycle of failure and discouragement. Do not give up! Keep at it. You can get the life you are supposed to have back again.
Is it so that you never fail in between? Am asking because my progress failed on 26th day and I went back to ild bad habist and again I am starting from today. Share your previous experience specifically regarding failing at target and then how to rbounce
There were several failures and resets before I found nofap. I had been trying to quit for years. For me it was a spiritual battle. I had to choose the Idol of porn or a meaningful relationship with God, which leads to a better quality of life. I finally realized all of the consequences of porn. I was a selfish, lonely, irritable jerk to the ones I loved. I could not get it up with my wife. I realized the negative consequences and how it was getting worse. I resolved to beat it and with Gods help, my nofap friends, and a personal friend, I made it past 60 days. After 60 days you start to see positive changes to your mind body and spirit. I want this transformation for everyone here and for young men before they start. Don’t ever stop trying. Life on the other side is much better.
It is my aim now to go for 60 days without PMO and see how I feel Is having sex with someone like partner, wife or lover etc and orgasming different to the O in PMO? Or in other words can you still have the O but with a sexual partner?? Thanks
You should not pursue a relationship with someone until you are done with porn. Then you can have a meaningful relationship based on more than sex. You don’t want to substitute a person in the place of porn it will never work. If you get control of yourself, then pursue a relationship. This is just my opinion. I have used women as a substitute for P and the addiction was still being fed from another source. I did not address the issue.
Thanks for sharing. It’s motivating! I am half way there and it’s still a challenge especially lately. Hearing about your success in no PMO gives me hope.
Thanks I appreciate the response! I agree it's necessary to give up porn completely to have a truly loving and meaningful relationship. So I shall continue to work hard to give up porn. Feels great to be doing this!!
Very inspiring! I've been here for a while (2 years), and I've had my ups and downs with trying to remove PMO from my life. Lately I began to try seriously again quit PMO, and I've started the 12 steps program. I've even embraced God to my life! I'm feeling quite positibe about it this time. I'd like to get some advices from someone like you who'd been clean for a very long while, mostly in regards to the mindset you keep. Thanks in advance!
There is a lot of hope! Every time you fail just start again and it seems to me it gets a little easier every time. We need to make it a habit not to look at porn.
