    Kylester18: Why do you think porn has caused OCD? Have you discussed this with the psychiatrist that diagnosed you?

    I've already lasted 30 days but not a full calendar month. August will be my month of success. I ended up relasping on july 3rd and so I was out before I even signed up but now I will get past august and reach my 90 days! I am doing hard mode no masturbating no edging no porn. Oh and no orgasm because I am not in a relationship but if it happens well it happens but other that no pmo!

    New to the forum, and hopefully only here for as long as it take.

    • Pretty much no P or M, I can't O with the gf right now because of the M...P isn't as bad of a problem. Also no edging.
    • I want this to last as long as it takes. Until I can go a month without so much as thinking of fapping. So indefinitely.
    • My main goal is to finish with my significant other. My side goals are to be able to control myself and provide myself with an outlet, like working out, or even finishing some games.
    • I'm doing this to become better than I was before. I'm doing this for my girlfriend, and so that I can finally see what its like to go a day, a week, a month, a year, without fapping.

    Here we go Abstain August!!

    I've decided to participate after reading an article on Tim Ferris' newsblog. I'm painfully aware that in my life, pmo is the ruler and I'm the peasant. Almost everything swirls around the next PMO experience after which I'm hunting. On the 25th of july I had the 9th anniversary with my girlfriend but sex has long become a quiet chapter of our relationship. I want to break free from my PMO addiction, strive for more activity and time outside my office and for more sexual activity in my relationship.

    So August it is, one month without should prove to myself that living is possible without PMO ;-) Chances are great that this affects my life for a long time. I quit smoking with 18, stopped drinking alcohol 2 years ago and lost 31kg over the run of three years. Another challenge I want to set my mind to!

    I'm in :)

    Answers:
    - Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Masturbate and porn. I have no girlfriend right now, so I'll probably will be without orgasms for now.
    - How long do you want this challenge to last? I'm saying "August" and I'm thinking "forever". However, if I get past this month without porn or masturbating, I'll be more than happy :).
    - What are your goals? I want more energy and I want be 100% in control of myself.
    - Why are you doing this? Because it's been already too long and I'm tired of this feeling of not being able to control an addiction.

    May the force be with us!

    • Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Not allowing any outlet for sexual release is called "hard mode".

    Though I will not allow myself to view porn or masturbate; I am in a serious relationship. Therefore I will not partake in “hard mode”.

    • How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting.

    I’d like for this particular challenge to last for one month.

    • What are your goals?

    Freedom. I’ve been locked down by the chains of pornography for far too long.

    • Why are you doing this?

    I am in.
    for..August, September, October.
    90 days is distant, but I have to complete it.
     
  10. Aim is to break this cycle and get clean, eliminate porn and spend my time living life.

    Over the last few months streaks have been getting longer and progress has been made but still not good enough.

    Use of internet and social media to be minimized.
    Going for 90 day chunks, continual life improvement throughout.

    Increase in the amount of fitness & meditation I am undertaking as well


    No PMO, MO or M
    Only sex with my GF is allowed

    If sleepless nights arise: No PMO, MO or M to get to sleep!

    July didn't go well for me. Hopefully this month will be better. A few days ago I came dangerously close to relapsing to P, and ended up binging on M :(

    This month I'll be writing a journal- just for August, in the under 20 section. Hopefully that should help keep me on track and keep me accountable.

    Hard mode as always...

    it's on. I've managed to go 45 days before and sex with partner finally felt great, then I relapsed and binged and went back down the shitter. I already know there is light at the end of the tunnel so I'm in :)

    Let's do it! I'm on day 25 currently, let's keep the momentum going! Questions:

    - Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever?

    NO PMO, no edging, no deliberately watching TV to find a fix, no lustfully staring at girls in public.

    - How long do you want this challenge to last?

    August for this, 90 days is the goal, and forever is the mission.

    - What are your goals?

    Become worthy of becoming respectable to myself. Improve my relationship with God. Self-improvement in the time that would have been spent PMO'ing.

    - Why are you doing this?

    I know I had an addiction. I'm currently doing this for a girl, so that I feel like I actually deserve her. Overall though, to become a better, more respectable person, and to remove this sinful habit for good.

    I am not doing Hard Mode, sex with my wife I am allowing. This is strictly for masturbating and viewing pornography. I've been trying to kick this habit for a while. My short-term goal is for all of August. I had a 4 month streak and ruined it, so I'd like to get back on track.

    im willing to go until next year
