    Seriously I'm in the summer, there is nothing to do, I have loads of time, I don't have any physical problems, I don't even know why do NOFap anymore. I'm really close to giving up, I was wondering is there anything else I could hold on to(or a reason)so I dont watch porn? I NEED a reason.

    Thanks in advance

    (RUDE comments/ being blunt is fine)

    Me personally, I recently started to read books. I think it really brings me further in life. Remember, we are changing our lifes completely so every positive change is supporting us on our way. Not only, that reading books in general makes you a different person. In today's world, we are adapted to the fast life. Every news we get we reveive as a push notification on our mobile phones. We don't talk really, we just communicate via short messages. Reading books forces you to have more self-control and patience.

    You have loads of free time? Why spend it on PMO if you could spend it on something useful instead? I can personally recommend learning an instrument and working out to get your body to look the way you want it to. But try anything that you think is right: learn a new sport or martial art, read a few classics, learn about physics or philosophy or meditation, learn a foreign language, learn a programming language, paint, write, sing, take a dancing class (hell, girls LOVE a man who knows a few classic steps), learn how to cook, travel, learn how to navigate via stars - whatever floats your boat. But stop making excuses as to why you can't do any of these and why you should rather go back to pointless self gratification that won't get you anywhere. If you do all the things you'd like to do and you got your life going the way you want it to in every way, then who cares if you PMO? But if anything in your life is not going the way you want it to, then use the time you'd usually use for PMO to fix that part. PMO is a waste of time and you only have an average of 70 years or so on this planet.

    here is another reason. nofap will change you as a person. Imagine when comes september and you are back to school, people will notice how different you seem. I imagine girls whispering to each other like "he seems so much more different". Although I am doing nofap for myself and not for others, imagining that still motivates me.

    No_Hentai, there are a couple of really good reasons besides the ones above that I think you will agree are reasons to stop PMO:
    1. You need for more and more exciting porn over time will lead you to watch shit that would disgust you right now - it will change YOU, and not for the better
    2. Your dick will learn to prefer your hand WITH porn, and you won't be able to get it up with a live girl (Porn Induced Erectile Dysfunction or PIED)
    3. Eventually, your dick will be desensitized and you won't be able to hardly get off with porn, much less without it.

    Don't just listen to me, go to yourbrainonporn.com and listen to the experts and real live testimonials of people like the thousands here that have already arrived at one of the stages above. Please let me know if you have questions after you take a look. I'm not intending to come across as rude, I am just trying to be brutally honest with you. If I could turn the clock back, I WOULD NEVER allow myself to have got started with porn and excessive masturbation to begin with. I hope you find the answers you are seeking.

    Anything but PMO man, just find something you like and fill the PMO void with that. Everyone here will tell you that.

    Hey no_hentai, somethings that you can do are, play a new videogame, read, you could try something new, and other stuff. Also, though it might be hard, don't give up, and don't give in. Good luck!
