    Hey
    First of all, sry for my bad english.

    I can't stay more than 5 days without masturbating/watching porn.
    I tried many time, my record was always 5 days.

    So i just wanted some suggestions to stay longer.
    Thx :D

    No more than 5 days ? How can you call yourself a soldier ?
     
  3. 1- 5 are proven to be the hardest physically so its no wonder you are struggling but remembere its harder to reach 1 week Nofap than 1 month Nofap. Stop the cycle.

  4. I don't think there's any way around the fact that you have to go through hellish cold turkey for maybe up to two weeks until you cry victory for more success! But you have to smash through that 5-day barrier! Your attitude should be that relapse is not an option! You have to apply 50-caliber reasoning like, "No more fantasy! Real life people and challenges I want to engage in, not wasting my time and energy fapping to images on a computer/TV screen! The images can't materialize into living flesh in front of me. My fapping hand is not a vagina." Or "I'm running around in circles, going nowhere fast! I must break out of this! I got to be free!" Spill no more sperm for images! The women who modeled for all those pictures and videos you fapped to don't even know you exist!!! We were all suckers until now and at least I won't go down as a fool like that for the rest of my life! (That's the attitude you must take to succeed.)

    As has already been said here those first 1- 3 weeks will likely prove the hardest for you get through, afterwards you will likely find things get progressively easier. To begin with thought you have to really want it.. your mind set can't be i want to quit pmo it has to be i will quit pmo!

    I always go back to NoFap videos, We have to keep reminding our selfs about the harm pmo is causing us and the things that improve by giving it up. With all that free time you gain from not fapping make sure to fill it with productive things like Reading, exercise and making time for friends/family. 5 days may seem like a mountain right now but that's only a mental thing, Mountains are there to be conquered. You are a success story waiting to happen!

    - Do NOT edge (if you start edging, STOP edging imediatelly)
    - Do NOT see beatiful girls on facebook, instagram, etc
    - If you feel boredom while using computer, STOP imediatelly, and go drink water, wash your face with cold water, etc
    - If you see something that triggers you (a hot clothe, a hot scene in a movie on NetFlix, a word, etc) remember, that is ONLY a trigger
    - Remember, if you could keep 5 days, you're in a better situation than people that say "ow, it's a personal thing", "ow, it's my business", "ow, it's morallism", etc
    - focuse both on present and future. At the same time, think "just for today" and "I'll never see porn again (or masturbate, if you're on medium mode)"
    - Get inspired by those with more than 90 days of hard mode. Read their stories, and don't get envious, ressented, etc. Rememer, they've PMOed too, and maybe much more than you did.
    - Most important, on my opinion: in the begining, see a LOT of NoFap videos on YouTube. Rearing is easier than reading. If you type "NoFap" on Youtube, you'll see some channels with more than 2.000 subscribers, and they have a lot of information, observations, etc. Also, it can make you keep away from porn sites (I rarely made PMO when i've just watched an NoFap video on Youtube)

    The tips down below are only if you're religious or belive in a transcedent power:
    - Read spiritual books EVERY single day, and some day those materials will get into your mind, if you make an effort to understand them (I think one~two months)
    - Ask God for give you better wills and mentality about the world around you. Some day, He may do it for you (I think one~two months).
    - Ask God for guiding you for a more meaningful life.

    Always remember how much PMO may have screwd up our minds...
