STOP PMOing SEPTEMBER 2016 - Sign up here!

I'm in for the long hall. Gonna try for the 90 reboot with no PMO. HERE GOES!!

 

I'm onboard. I began the month in late August thought I cannot remember the exact date of last PMO. I made a decision to go Sept free before I joined and have done well so far. I was miserable this past weekend with all the psychological fallout. Feeling well and moving forward. Only a couple of times in the day I have to be wary of and in the morning this is the first site I move to. I find it very helpful and thank you all for your thoughts on recovery and the support that only those going through this can share. Good luck to all!

 

In it to win it! My last PMO was just before the month started. This is a perfect opportunity to keep myself going strong.

• No masturbation at all. No porn (accidental is fine, as long as I de-escalate quickly and then don't do it again). No orgasm (not including wet dreams, but including with my wife). No searching for P-subs, either!
• 30 days, taking me to the end of September. If all is good, we'll see if there's an October challenge too.
• Goals: to be free of the demon! After decades, to be free! My best streak so far is 14 days, by pushing this through to the end of September, I'll have doubled that and be well on the way.
• Why am I doing this? To keep myself on the "straight and narrow". I know just how terrible this thing can be, the Relationships section is full of broken people, broken promises, broken lives. By working on this, I can make sure that I'm giving my wife and my relationships 100%, and I definitely don't end up in any situation like those!!

My journal. I've been writing well in it, I will continue to write about my progress in it and how this challenge is working out for me.

 

This is my 9th day of hard mode, no PMO. I want to achieve 30 days of no PMO first and then eventually increase.

 

im in! rebooting after 58 days >.<

 

yeah - that's a great motivation!

 

day 6 - still going strong

 

I am committing to being PMO-free for the month of September. My larger goal is to be PM-free for 90 days if my ex girl friend decides to give me another chance. If she doesn't, then it will be really hard but I'll try to be PMO-free for 90 days.

My goals are 1) to reduce the amount of daily thoughts about having sex with other women or looking at women as sex objects. 2) to have more energy and time for productive habits 3) To experience sex in a wholesome way 4) to show my ex girlfriend that I am on the road to change

I am doing this all to get my life back and hopefully my relationship back as well.

 

Last month at around this time I congratulated everyone on a good first week. The next day I relapsed. Now I'm working through my best streak (for both PMO and P-subs). I don't want to jinx it as I've done before, but in the past week I have had some shitty days. Days that leave me tired and sore, stumbling around in a new place...but I didn't break. Slowly and gradually, I am getting to where I need to be.

All of this is to say, congratulations on a good first week. If it wasn't for the posts of people grinding through it and making positive changes, I might have given up last month. Best of luck everyone.

 

hi everyone,
being sick of this addiction ruling and ruining my life for so long, i came for your help. i will take the recommended 90 day challenge . the longest time i manage without masturbation was 8 days!!! so it will be a challenge but i´ll do my best. wish me luck

i´ll be posting about my progress.

 

I'm in. I'm at day one September 7

 

Ok. today has been a weird and difficult day (almost jacked off in a bathroom) but resisted . I also have been progressing in sex with my boyfriend (I have cum two times this month but during sex. have not been able to cum inside though:| ) Hope we all keep our strength for the rest of the month.

 

Why not, I guess.

 

Crosspost from my journal

Day 15 (7 september)
MO'ed this afternoon. No P or fantasy involved. Felt good to let go of the tension. Did not feel any guilt or shame afterwards as I normally experienced with PMO

Not sure what to do with my counter? Do I reset or just continue since it was no PMO? Or do I split the counter into P and a separate for MO (because my problem is more with MO)? Any advice on this?

 

so far day 8 is more difficult, at least the P part - ... - if I can resist further on that I think I'll be in good shape

 

I'm in. Hard mode.

Long time lurker. First time poster. Had sustained success through most of this year but starting from 0 today.

I'm rootin' for everyone in here. Stay motivated.

 

damnit - relapsed

 

I'm jumping on board a little late, but I just learned of NoFap today. Sounds right for me.
*I'm not going to masturbate or view porn for the rest of September. Seems like a reasonable goal for a beginner. Since I haven't achieved an orgasm without porn for a year or more now, I won't be having any orgasms either. Hard mode all the way.
*Default challenge, one month, to begin.
*My goal is to stop wasting my time viewing porn each day. If that also helps revive my failing libido, great. After a month, I'll review any changes I've experienced and consider another, perhaps longer, reboot commitment.
*I'm tired of wasting time, tired of not having any sexual experiences except with porn, and sad that my partner and I have given up on sex in part because I can't get it up any more without porn.

 

On day 12 now, its going quite good.

 

I passed 12 days, and it's coming along good.

But it's getting hard as well: I'm getting sexual fantasies on my head, and I'm doing, all my best, to not relapse.

So what I did was just shake off my head, get off my bed and soak my face, and then, I went out for a running. I gotta keep standing tall and keep going. Otherwise, I may get aroused again.
