    Hey people. I'm Michael a 23 year old student trying to finally quit PMO. Been struggling to quit for more than a year but keep relapsing after a few days.
    I saw Nofap on a YouTube video and after reading stories how its helped others opted to try it out. Hopefully I'll end up as one of those giving success stories.
    Really trying to find words to introduce myself but I think I'll open up more with time.

    Hey bro. There is no secret. Focus on your goal and why you want to do this. When urge came, you repeat to yourself: "this will make me a better man or it will be 3 minutes of pleasure? And its only fake pleasure, cos you will feel like sh*t after fap.

    My strategy was/is simple: be active here. Talk with people. Create a journal. To talk helps a lot. You are not alone
    Important too is keep busy. Find an hobby, and go out to run or to gym! To dance, to paint, to read, to gardener, anything!

    What's yours?

    1st of all WELCOME here, its ok if you open yourself in a manner we peel off onion.

    In combating your PMO situation you have taken the right step by coming here, like for me whether I succeed or fail this site helped me. THE HELP I am not able to measure but somehow it helped and now also helping me to a certain extent.

    I don't think hopefully but for surely you will be able to give your success stories and many of us will be benifited from that.

    Best Of Luck for your journey and if you want to get an idea about PORN & BRAIN you can check these two videos, if you haven't or if you want to

    I rather figured it out a while back that there's no secret
    My main goal is rather to stop this as the guilt added with the time I waste flapping isn't helping me in anyway. Rather keeps pulling me down.
    My strategy is:
    1. Keep away from my phone when I'm thinking about going to the bathroom.
    2. Avoid being idle and alone in the house
    3. Work on my self control
