    Hey guys, I just came to a realization I wanted to share. Nofap alone is not enough to keep me away from pmo. Im sharing this because ive read a lot of posts where people have talked about being on nofap for months or even years with little success. If this is you, get help. Check out 12 step meetings, which are donation based, or get into a therapy group for sexual addictions or go see a sexual addictions therapist. Through seeking help outside of nofap, ive found many reasons why ive struggled to quit p on my own. Im showing symptoms of ptsd from some past trauma that I thought I was over, and ive been self medicating with p. You may be thinking that theres no way this could be you, but just know I thought the same thing.

    If you are struggling to get clean from p on nofap, don't keep trying. Get more help. Do something different. Im sure yall have heard this before, but the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

    right on man. I went through the same path. I'm on step 4 now and I'm really starting to think this program will work. For the first time in my life I feel like I have a path towards sobriety. Also all of the support from my sponsor and other people in the group is amazing. I've had one minor relapse in 83 days and it has been the easiest (to not pmo, hard in other ways) time I've ever tried to quit. 12 step is awesome I'm so grateful to have found it.

    also we have basically the same profile pic. lol

    How I got help? Know your enemy. I take a biblical stance to the situation

    Marine demons are the enemy.

    Here is a good video on the matter

    It's definitely a son of a bitch addiction to quit and it takes a hell of a time to fully quit ur porn addiction
    BUT
    don't put too much pressure on you.
    Thing is: people been fapping to porn for 10+ years thinking they will stop fapping from one day to another and this is one of many thoughts that leads to frustration and failure.
    Instead see the whole NoFap thing as a process. Don't count ur days and fuck urself up for a relapse. See the relapse as part of the bigger process and instead work on yourself day by day.
    Like i said, it's a strong addiction and putting pressure on you is the fastest way to a relapse.
    Be safe and work on yourself. Wish you only the best and have a great evening!

    But be smart about it though. Some therapists abuse their clients.
