    I've started my PMO challenge today. I've been aware of NoFap for a while and have been building up over the past few days to creating a profile.

    I'm looking forward to doing maybe the most positive and difficult thing I've ever done. 40 years of spanking the monkey is probably enough! I can't even begin to contemplate at the moment the negative effect it has had on my life so I'm going to try and focus on the positives.

    I've set myself a 100 day challenge just because I like a round number. So here goes and looking forward to 100 days on 19th May.

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and not judge you.

    What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

    I'm 43 and I though I would have eventually outgrown this childish habit. It took me decades but I finally had to admit that this was a full blown addiction and that was the reason why my paltry efforts at quitting were always failing. Follow the path the rest of us are traveling and you will find success.

    Well I didn't do so well in my 1st 40 days that started on Feb 8th but I'm not going to beat myself up too much. I probably relapsed a dozen times. I've reset my date from Monday this week, so the clock is running from 20/03/2017.

    I've got two good reasons since I started to get this right now. I've made a promise to two friends that are no longer alive that I will get this right and do it for them. They would both want me to live my life to the full especially as their lives were cut short well before their time.

    I'm 25 and was afraid to admit I had an addiction now it's clear to me that I do because of how my body and mind is responding to not watching porn in only 3 days. It's difficult I even feel like watching now but I'm trying to fight the feeling.

    I relapsed and have been gone from this site for over a year. I have started a new 100 day challenge and will complete my 1st week tomorrow. Like I said over a year ago "I have so gotta do this."

    I thought I'd come on here and congratulate myself. I tried last year and failed. This year I've managed 34 days without porn and it feels so good.

    I'm wondering whether or not to go to hard mode and make it a full PMO challenge. I probably MO about 2-3 times a week at the moment and I'm not too bothered about that right now. My main focus is to quit the porn addiction.

    Does anyone have any thoughts on the pros and cons of both approaches?

    Yet again I'm on here resetting my counter. I did manage one streak this year of 54 days which may well be a lifetime best without porn (at least since internet porn was available) so all is not lost. I'm still going for a 100 day challenge, starting again today.
