    Hi fapstronauts,

    I joined this forum in early 2018. At the time I was suffering from PIED and Death Grip. I was edging for 3+ hours each day. I was an anxious and self loathing wreck with literally nothing going for me. I seriously did not think there was any hope for me, and I wanted my life to end. I had never orgasmed through any sexual contact, and I thought I would be impotent forever.

    Since joining, I have completed multiple long streaks, the longest being 90 days. I've replased lots too, and getting to 90 was a battle. Here are the changes that I experienced that I am certain came from NoFap:
    - PIED and Death Grip went away
    - O'd for the first time with the girl I had a crush on for years
    - Anxiety, Depression, Suicidal Thoughts went away
    - Became very physically fit for the first time, lost weight
    - I gained an unexplainable happiness and lust for life
    - Improved academically
    - Success with girls + girlfriends + fell in love for the first time.
    - Became motivated to actually manifest self-improvement.

    If I had not found this forum, I don't know if I would have had the strength to quit, so I am thankful. The benefits are real. There is so much more to my story, but it's not necessary here. I will always regret the years of PMO.

    I'm here because my relapses have become more frequent and I'm looking to find strength in this forum once again. It's time for NoFap 2020. I hope some of you will join me. I read success stories when I first joined and I always dreamt of having my own. If I could inspire a single person to fight their way out of the situation that I was in, that is what would make me happy.

    Nice read, im on a streak at the moment and probably just had my toughest day so far today so good motivation for me to read about your benefits. Ive got anxiety and mild depression so am hoping nofap can help me in this department too.

    good luck with nofap 2020.

    Good luck! It can definitely help you. I would advise exercise as the best way to jump-start a streak. If you listen to a lot of music, you can use that while exercising as a motivator.

    I think the positive feelings are how you're supposed to feel, they just feel even better in contrast to the bleak and miserable life you experience when you're PMO'ing.

    I did actually post my story in Success Stories, it was moved, I think because my streak is under 30 days. I still think it's a success story, it's the same thing I would have written at the end of my 90 day streak I had just stopped using the forum at that point because I didn't need it and a lot of the content had gone downhill.
    My life is so much better now than it was, so yeah it's a success story, but if the rule requires a 30 day streak then so be it, I'm fine with the story being in this forum instead.
