Wondering why some people have such long streaks?

It takes different people different amounts of time. I don't think any of us are doing this with the long term ambition of lifelong celibacy. We do want to break our dependence on artificial stimulation. I always like to think of it in context of how long we were destroying our brains for. Many of us had 5-10 years, maybe more, of heavy PMO use. If you'd been abusing drugs for that period of time then 10 months to completely break the addiction (if such thing is even possible) wouldn't seem like that long.

For me, when 90 days was over I had zero interest in anything sexual. I was in a really deep flatline (at day 50 I still had all my superpowers). The course of this recovery is really variable. It's a healing process and it unfortunately takes as long as it takes.

it does suck that it takes so long! sucks to hear you were still flatline at 90.
i'm at day 50 and have been flatlining for like 15-20 days so hopefully i'm moving along a little quicker.

anyway thanks for reply. it helped clear some things up for me

I was just delighted to find people who would support me in reducing my mo habit - this has worked really well and I am so grateful.

Well said. People here have similar if somewhat different goals. What's amazing to me is how well it works - and how grateful I feel for this community.

This is an awesome, open, caring, experienced community. Reading hrough these reactions, I see that they are each different, but not one of them is bad or dangerous advice. There aren't many churches, mental health organizations, or suport groups that could play in this ball park.

For myself, I am at over 100 days because I just finished my first successful 90 day reboot recently, and I want to keep it PMO free for life, as in no more porn for me. So I wanna keep my counter rocking I do PM mode, I have sex with my bf and I personally still masturbate, but not to porn anymore. I was an addict for 16 years and I want to continue my porn-free streak forever.

You will care when you go to fuck her and you still have floppy dick syndrome! Then you will wish you listened to us!

Brutal, but true.
