    It's like a drug

    I'll let you in on a little secret. I like to stick my pen up my ass and masturbate while doing so. It's awful. Basically, it's a drug for me. I stimulate the prostate.

    Small Victory

    I'm currently on my longest streak in some time: 8 full days. It's a small win but I'll take it. I'm trying to stay disciplined toward a 90 day reset.

    More Likable When Fapping

    Weird phenomenon incoming. Whenever I abstain for several days or a couple weeks (haven't gone longer than 3-4 weeks for as long as I can remember), I seem to become less likable. I work in the service industry so I gauge this by analyzing how much and how frequently I'm tipped on the job. My...

    Difference between relapse and lapse

    Can you explain the difference between a lapse (you masturbate once or maybe twice and then get straight back to abstinence) and a complete relapse (where you masturbate again for a week or more, loose your track completely) in terms of what preconditions lead to which outcome?

    Into the fire because why not

    So I joined her to admit to myself I have a problem. I don't really know what to say here so I'll just say... I'm going to give myself a challenge. A 90 day challenge. Into the fire.. Hopefully I turn out to be a phoenix so I come out unscathed. Either that or chuck Norris. Then I could...

    Hi folks, Not so long ago I wrote a thread about my idea of trying a progressive approach in crushing PMO, consisting in quitting P and M one at the time focusing on a long period recovery, as cold turkey never really worked for me (u can find original thread here...

    Introductions

    I'm an almost 22 yr old male in his last semester of college for a while. I've struggled with PMO for as long as I can remember.

    Is long-term abstinence healthy? (Edit)

    Edit 09/04/2018: This edit will make things right. Losing male's fluid is bad for health. Period. If you try to reproduce after a year of abstinence, you will have a lot of old sperms, but you will have also a lot of new sperm. I don't know how much of each, but at the end the ovum will be...

    What 150+ Days PMO-Free Looks Like

    Hi everyone, Never before did I think that I could abstain from anything for more than 150 days - let alone from something as addictive as PMO. But here I am - 150 days PMO-free and feeling stronger than ever. Abstaining is much easier for me now than it was during the first couple of months...

    Intense urge but I can't relapse!

    So whenever I have an upcoming social event I abstain from PMO to increase my confidence, testosterone & reduce social anxiety. It always works but now I have a very intense urge and can't relapse because I have that event to go to tomorrow and I'm going to need all of my semen retention...

    Relapsed after 60 days of abstinence

    Hey guys, I have an announcement to make. I relapsed after 60 days of NoFap NoPMO but with wet dreams. On the 60th day of Nofap (59 days completed), I had a wet dream and couldn't help myself cum into the dream. I felt guilty after waking up and had this feeling that I've relapsed. I hate wet...

    Does Rebooting Make Abstinence Easy

    For those of you who have rebooted would you say abstaining from sex is a piece of cake now that you've quit porn. I know not everyone on here wants to wait for marriage. But surely if you've beaten a porn addiction then you're able to control your desires, than they control you. Am I right in...

    Still have wet dreams?

    Hey, I was just curious, anyone here practicing total sexual abstinence for a long time? Do you still have wet dreams? After 100+ 200+ days of no PMO, do you have nocturnal emissions? Is it going to fade out or is it a recurring event never ending as long as one abstains?
