    Morshu here wanting to sign up for this. No PMO for 90 days to start, then we'll see what happens after.
    My goal is to stop wasting so much time browsing dirty images when I could be using the time doing stuff I actually like, such as catching up on all the shows I've neglected on Netflix.
    I am doing this because one, I have been struggling with it for a long time, and two, I am about to leave for college so I don't want to be caught engaging in such behaviors.

    It seems to us that the most important work in the world is the work which we can see: building a house, plowing the land, feeding cattle, gathering fruits; and that the work which is invisible, the work done by our soul, is not important. But our invisible work at the improvement of our soul is the most important work in the world, and all other visible kinds of work are useful only when we do this major work.

    Because your enemy is relentless, and one slip-up, one crack in the wall, and it all can come rushing back. . . . The urge—the “I must!” that springs out of the subcellars of your mind—passes, if you keep the door bolted and wait for it to pass.

    Our character is basically a composite of our habits. Because they are consistent, often unconscious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character.

    17 days without PMO completed. I'm having strong urge to M before sleeping & just after waking up. But I'm able to keep my urges in check. Hopefully I don't PM again.

    "Flatlining: Many NoFap® users report one or more periods of zero libido during their streak, especially in the 2-6 week period. Transitioning from an overexcited, always-eager libido to none at all can be disconcerting and even scary for the experienced masturbator, but many Fapstronauts report that it is only a phase in the reboot and will pass." (copied from the glossary :) )
