    Sign up for NoFap's monthly challenge in this thread!

    It's that time of the month again - hello and welcome to the official signup thread for NoFap's "No Jerking Off" PMO-Free July 2015!

    The purpose of this thread is to provide Fapstronauts with a place to share their commitment to abstaining from particular sexual behaviors throughout the entire month of July 2015. Although it is strongly recommended, posting in this thread is not required for participation.
    New to NoFap? Here are some suggestions:

    1. Learn about the website, porn addiction, excessive masturbation, and abstaining from PMO. Read through the forum, the subreddit, and other websites to get informed.
    2. Decide if abstaining from PMO is something that you really want. If you don't buy into the process 100%, you'll probably not make it through the month. If you have decided that you would like to participate, proceed to step three.
    3. Sign up for this month by replying to this thread.
    4. Consider setting up a day counter to track your progress. Otherwise, there are a variety of phone applications and calendars available for crossing off how many days you've lasted.
    5. Create a Journal Thread and share your progress every day. Not only does this help you stay accountable, it documents valuable anecdotal evidence that will ultimately help other people going through similar situations in the future.
    6. Ask questions and get support by posting on NoFap. Come here every day and participate.
    7. Get an accountability partner.
    Would you like to participate? If so, please reply to this thread with the following information.
    • Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Not allowing any outlet for sexual release is called "hard mode".
    • How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting.
    • What are your goals?
    • Why are you doing this?
    Coming in after this month has already started?
    Don't panic - it is not a problem. Fapstronauts sign up for NoFap's events all months long. Just follow the instructions above and jump in at any time by replying to this thread.

    I wish you all nothing but the best. Onwards to a porn-free July!

    Actually, I've been waiting for this. I'm already past two-weeks mark on my reboot and my goal is to cut all sorts of artificial sexual stimulation. 90 days is my starting goal, and I'm not gonna stop there.

    After years of abusing my brain through PMO, It's now my responsibility to break free. I'm fed up of feeling regretful, shameless, depressed. I had enough of these already and I'm not gonna bring myself back there again. I can live through the hardships of the reboot. The process isn't getting easier, that's for sure. But It's 100% worth it. With the proper attitude and way of thinking, everything is possible.

    So, obviously I'm 100% in. With 100% motivation and support for all participants. Let's do it lads!

    This site has already helped me. I'm not sure when was the last time I went without PMO for last several years. The monthly challenge is just the right thing at the right time.

    No masturbation and no porn
    I'm on day nine. The initial goal is certainly 90 days, but I don't wish to use porn any more in my life
    Too many to list here, but broadly massive self improvment - I want to be healthier, calmer, more professionally succesful, a better partner and love... All that usual sort of stuff. ;)
    Because porn makes me feel like shit. I'm an addict and I can't control my use. I need to stop.

    Day 1 then. Have great days, friends, look forward to speaking to you on this thread.

    I'll give this a try. Gary Wilson's TEDx talk got me here. I'm an addict, and I want that to change.
    30 days, no P or M.

    I've been PMO free from the 24th of May.
    Might as well stay this way for another month, and hit my 91 days goal afterwards!

    I've been feeling better and better ever since the beginning of that challenge.
    I have been more resilient to stress, physical and psychological discomfort.
    I also feel more confident, I don't usually look people in the eyes to declare "I don't fap!", but sometimes, saying it to myself makes me fool good and proud about myself.

    I wanna keep this awesome feeling of being awesome, so I'll keep it up for one more months.

    That's all for me.
    Good luck to you all!

    I'm in. I signed up for NoFap a few days ago, and am in the process of reading as much as I can.

    I'm on day 20 for me, with a goal of 30 days; then, God willing, I'll set a further goal. But right now, I'm just thinking about today and its choices.

    Thanks for everyone else's example. It helps a lot!

    Hard mode :)

    I'm already on day 24 of No PMO.

    My target today is 30, then 40 and so on until I reach the point where I don't have to count.

    My reason:

    I used to have major depression and at points was suicidal due to feeling that my life was pointless. But Thank God I gave up P first and the depression left, I'm going hard mode now to reset my brain and purify my internal state.

    NO PORN or masturbation for 90 days, beginning today. I am married and we are trying to conceive, so I will enjoy that around ovulation time. Wanting to be free of 30+ year porn habit. And I want greater intimacy with my wife.
     
  14. I am not going to allow myself to masturbate or view pornography. My goal is to go for the whole month of July without masturbating or viewing pornography. Eventually I want to quit masturbating and watching porn forever, but right now my goal is one month. I am doing this because of all the problems my porn/masturbation addiction has caused in my life. My addiction has caused me to develop social anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder. It's also cause me to have trouble concentrating and paying attention which has made school very difficult for me. My addiction has also just taken all the enjoyment out of my life. I don't enjoy life the way I used to before I was addicted to pornography/masturbation. I want to become truly happy and start enjoying life again and hopefully beating my addiction will help me do that.
