        It's okay (I think) to catch your breath and get mentally focused before re-entering the ring -- seems a more promising technique than to hurry back without added mental prep and reflection. It won't be long before you remember all too well why you were fighting this fight and will return with an adjusted strategy and an even firmer resolve. We have faith in you!

        I did go 33 days though, and I am proud of that.

        Hey guy! What with the recent wet dreams and Grindr it seemed likely a relapse might be coming. Still, you had a GREAT streak of hard mode PMO and clearly have a lot of willpower! Congratulations!! After taking a deep breath...and perhaps a little time to refocus, we look forward to your return to the fold. Cheers!

        I am glad that you are proud of yourself that you managed 33 days - that is certainly an achievement. And it shows strength of mind that you're already up for trying again. Respect.

        I deleted Grindr last Thursday, a few days before joining NoFap. I think it was a good decision. Grindr produces a mindset of 'always searching' and 'never finding'; i.e. the hedonist's paradox.

        I got a surge of temptation yesterday when I saw a really hot guy walking down the train platform and thought hmm.. I wonder if he's on Grindr? But I have uninstalled the app so I couldn't check, and I don't intend on installing it again anytime soon. Let's talk more about this if you would like any help/advice about getting rid of it/being free of it.

        Lol, yeah, I actually had grindr uninstalled for about 2 months. I usually only have it for a few days at a time, to check to see if anything has changed, and then moving on. I'm not even sure why I downloaded it again. I guess I was getting desperate. Ah well. You live and you learn.

        it's hard because it seems like a real need. only it isn't! 5 minutes later you're distracted, doing something engaging, or talking with your colleagues... and "poof", the addiction-created mirage of this would-be need is gone and... seeing you're no longer vulnerable, it retreats to its hole in the ground, thinking it'll try another day. and you?
        just that bit stronger inside, coz without trials we can never grow!

      Sorry I haven't really been active. I'm 4 weeks tonight, but it has been discouraging. I figured no one wants to hear "Still horny as heck."

        Idk, I've been pretty depressed honestly. That's for reaching out. I'm still going, but it's been hard keeping up to motivation to keep going. As for replacing the PMO... I mean, I'm generally busy. But I don't think there really is a true replacement for any of that in my life.

        Thanks for your message! We're really "better together" as they say... So, I've always admired your amazing determination, but I've been wondering about your developing a healthy lifestyle instead of this addiction! Of course, there are PLENTY of things to do to make yourself happier than PMO (which is an illusion anyway). If you ever wanna explore this in a "conversation", let me know! Stay with us, guy!

      Not gonna lie. Just had a close call. I don't consider it a reset (no pics) but I'm not sure how much longer I'm gonna go without resetting.

    I'm 26 years old, gay, and mormon (not a particularly good combination, but it is what it is). Looking for support as I try to completely eliminate PMO from my life.

    For those that are LDS, I served my mission in Albania. I went to BYU for a couple years, but couldn't handle it due to my situation.

    I've worked as a Teppanyaki Chef, and Associate Auditor at BYU, and now a Jr. Network Engineer for a manufacturer of wireless ethernet bridges.

    I love questions. Let me know if you have any.
