    I have tried nofap lot of times and failed miserably. Highest I went is a week in all these attempts. Even after 1 day without fapping I get too horny and too many boners. I had been able to get rid of Porn for longer periods but never on MO. It seems like all the motivation and reasoning goes out of window after the first few days. My personal and professional life has been affected and lot of bridges burnt due to it.

    Hope I can atleast beat my personal best.

    Welcome back :) I hope you find someone to lean on during those times when you are struggling. Keep finding ways to improve yourself little by little.

    If you have, you know some of the things that don't work for you. There are people on this forum who do things that HAVE worked.

    Then you know that "after the first few days" is a particular problem. You don't have long to build up a plan to deal with that loss of motivation and reasoning. What can you do?

    Then you know some of the reasons you want to quit. One of the things I needed to do was find the reason that worked for me; NOT the reasons everybody else told me I needed, but the one that spoke to me. THEN I needed to remind myself of that reason over and over throughout the day. I still do that; it's better (even with the little bit of time I have now), but it's not ALL better.

    Keep checking in. Make a plan and share it with us; other people can see better than I can the holes in my plans; I suspect the same will be true for you.

    Thank you.
    I'm still trying to figure out my strategy.
