accountability

Hi all, I (20M) am reaching out in efforts to find myself an accountability partner for my NoFap journey. I have been attempting nofap to different degrees for the past 4 years and have recently feel into the snares of PMO with the winter season. I just want to have someone to occasionally...

Hello there, I've been follwing nofap for some time though never really seriously. But I think it could be of major importance since semen has the possibility to create life. In the beginning I sadly did fall for the "masturbation is healthy" trap. My question is how do you use the forum? I...

I had an interesting sequence happen this morning. I was reading the Marsha Means book - Learn Empathy and she recommended downloading the Gottman card decks from the Apple store onto your phone. BUT she said to avoid 2 particular decks because they could be triggering. She used pretty strong...

Lately I've been thinking how much control a person has over their life. Sure there is a myriad of things you can't control: The weather, politics, what your coworker in the cubicle next to you brings for lunch. But, The only thing in your control is effort. That’s all, and that’s everything...

Hey everyone! As the title implies, I am looking for 90 day Hard Mode no PMO daily accountability partner(s). I did this in the past with a good friend of mine and we were both very satisfied with its effectiveness. For the sake of this run, the O is allowed but only if it's with a partner. The...

I am 20 M. Have been addicted for 11 years. It has downgraded all aspects of my life. Now, I want porn to feel normal everyday. I have a feeling that cold turkey or time alone will not cure this disease. I have decided to look deep into the core reasons behind this addiction and face them. But...

I have had a very good accountability partner for a while now. He encourages me to support someone else in their recovery journey, like he has done for me. I would like to be an accountability partner for someone here who is struggling. Send me a message if you are interested. Preferably anyone...

So, I relasped yesterday afternoon. I’ve realized I need to lean on other people, this wonderful community, to overcome this. I’ve thought I’d be able to white-knuckle it until I beat it. Numerous setbacks later, clearly not the case. So, I’ll be posting my streak in this thread—with this post...

Hey there, I have struggled with PMO addiction since I was 11 years old. I started trying to work on recovering at about 20 years old and saw gradual progress for about 4-5 years. I am now 26 and last year(2023) was when I noticed major progress happen as I was able to have 2 separate periods...

Hi all, PMO addiction recovery can be a very lonely task, especially when even the "closest" folks around you like friends and family wouldn't understand your situation. Nonetheless, I'm looking for someone who's willing to be a serious accountability partner. I have no preference in where...

Hi :) I'm looking for a very specific accountability partner. What I specifically want in my accountability partner is the great appreciation towards gratitude about life. This is important for me, because it'll allow me and my accountability partner to deepen our gratitude/gratefulness...

I would like for people here to share storyes and give each other a support so we can grow together in recovery. And maybe tell what we expetc of our lives in future. 1. I live in a beautifull city with great weather. But that doesn't matter becaouse I make my days dark. My life is messy. I...

I am not sure what to mention here and I guess that's it.

Hey friends, Crossposted in the 20-24 section, Looking for someone to commit to 30 days of daily check-ins with me for accountability. Im a 22 year old guy from the USA, a new Christian, and would love to meet someone similar and age and in background. I have never done 30 days before and really...

Atomic, Crazy House, King of the Hill, Fog of war and more... If you want to socialize sometimes, do accountability and play something fun hit me up. I do play these chess variants for a while already along with 960. Atomic is the most fun.

Hey, I'm looking for a serious accountability partner(s) - 1-2 people for 90+ days, ideally long-term. I've done 96 days of MONK MODE with an accountability partner before, and I think it's the best way to stay focused on the goal and be successful. A few months ago, I started TRT, and it...

I'm looking for someone who's on a similar Journey than I - for exchange and mutual support. About me: I'm 40 (m, straight) - you can be around that age, but I don't mind the age, as long as the accountability partnership works out. Most important is, that you read and understand my messages...

Hey everyone, I’m seeking an accountability partner to stay on track with my nofap journey. The preferred method of contact is either the nofap forum or Discord. We can check in with each other daily or as needed to share progress, challenges, and motivation. If you’re committed and serious...

Hey all, I’m a 40 yr old gay guy from U.K. Currently on day 4. I’d really like an accountability partner because I think it’ll help to keep me focused if anyone would like to help. Happy to be an accountability partner for anyone that needs one too.

I've been doing nofap for a while but now I want to take it more seriously then before.

Hey guys, Looking for an accountability partner to set daily goals with. We can set daily goals and tell eachother. For example- "I'm gunna clean my apartment, do pushups, read a chapter of a book". Everyday tell each other specific goals to motivate us to do them. I think it would be a lot more...

Today, for the first time I looked up r/nofap on reddit. I had come across nofap many times but I chose to ignore it as I was never ready to quit porn and masturbation prior to today. I had tried a few times once I got a GF but got back into the habit. Well, long story short - Whenever I try...

Hi all, as the title suggests I am looking for a reliable AP. This person would be UK based We would communicate on Whatsapp. We would check in with eachother each week or sooner if we are having any urges or if with have any questions / need support. Preferably looking for someone with AP...

Yoo lads Looking for an accountability partner so we can support each other on this journey Im chill, anyone welcome

Hey guys, I relapsed a week ago after a 3 month hardmode streak, I'm looking for someone to connect with. There is so much shame in this area of my life, and I believe I find power in opening up about it. Shoot me a DM if you're interested. Everyone is welcome.

Speak less, Do more. Is my anxiety doing me any good?

Hello all, I'm 42 years old, new to this group and glad to have the support. Had about 14 years of sobriety from PM but started slipping back in 2018 and went completely off the wagon in 20 or 21. Fessed up to PM and massage parlors during a marriage crisis this winter and doing the work to...

Hello all! Unsure really how to format this, but I'll start by saying I'm 19 years old and I'm a full-time college student majoring in Computer Science. As for what to say next, well, I'll say that I started watching porn and masturbating at around the age of 12. It started out as softcore...

So I'm a goal setting guy. I always love setting small and attainable goals that grow more and more. For NoFap, I decided on a goal of no pmo for a week. I'm currently on day 2, and look forward to seeing how this goes. If anyone is interested in joining me, or being accountability partners...

I’ve been suffering a lot lately and really need to eliminate this habit for the holistic good of my life. I’m looking for people to join me on a new year’s commitment and accountability group. Let’s get our super powers in this new year!

25 year old gay man. I've been masturbating to porn, instagram, twitter, and literotica ever since I started masturbating at age 13. I never masturbate without the Internet, mostly on my phone. I think my triggers are boredom and low self-esteem, as well as trouble getting to sleep. I realised...

Hey Everyone! I'm no stranger to NoFap, having tried it a couple years ago when my grades were slipping, and managed to do about 9 months- no PMO. However, over the years, I have made some half-hearted attempts to stop but about a month ago I decided to take it seriously. I managed 10 days...

I’ve been on NoFap in the past, with a longest streak of over 70 days last year which I was super proud of at the time and believed it was only going to get better from there. Unfortunately this year has been the exact opposite, feel like I’m in a massive rut again with PMO. I really want to...

Over A year I had A few dating sites and A new Instagram but my Instagram was filled with women I use to talk to I took time to delete all my dating sites permanently and my Instagram too cause on there was nothing but naked women and I’m trying to fully go hard mode on semen retention and...

K9 no longer works, the service is no longer available. I am searching for something similar that has password protection so that I can't turn it off or uninstall it unless I format my system.

Last time I posted here was back in 2014. I was trying to adress some issues I encountered, read about PIED and quitting porn, made a very detailed post explaining my process. I had a gf back then, she was a medical doctor, went researching by herself and ended up making an account to the forum...

Hello to all the men seeking to better their lives! I've heard of the NoFap community for some time and have always appreciated the idea behind this platform. One of the reasons I decided to join this community is to remind myself that I'm not alone in my struggle with P&M. Another is to be...

I am 19 y o. I occasionally do watch bad stuff and masturbate. I need to get rid of this by telling someone in my life about it and them having me accountable. I did tell to some of my close friends.But many of my friends do the same and think that doing this is okay. Should I tell my mom or...

To whoever's reading this, hi, I guess. I'm Joel, 26 male. I was hoping to find someone or even multiple like-minded people on here to help keep each other on track. I'm not sure that quitting everything cold-turkey would work for me or even if that's what I want at all. My goals are (1) to...

I’m coming to the end of day 3 of things. I’ve realised that I have created bad habits over the years, and so now that I am on this journey I need to unchain myself from these bad habits and create new habits, which are much healthier. For example, I came home a moment ago and my first thought...

Hey everyone. I am a computer science student and if you are one you know how much time you have to be alone that too in front of the computer with an internet connection. I think that we as programmers have it hardest. Cause we are constantly exposed to triggering objects and events. Please...

New Fapstronaut here. I'm 22 and a recent college graduate. I know that porn and masturbation has been holding me back. It has made it increasingly hard for me to get over my ex. So now, I'm taking the initiative to leave this terrible habit and the thoughts of her in the rearview mirror...

(Bear with me here, tried not to make this too long) Without going into the long story that is my background, I want to tell you where I'm at and what just happened. I'm 23, and after I made a major switch in my life a couple of years ago I have found new life and hope. I have had some long...

Hi. I'm new here, as you'd notice by the date of my registration or current lack of comments/posts on here. I'll give a little about myself and then about my situation. I'm in my Christian, mid-30s, married for +4 years, no kids, and am trying to take a new career path by returning to...

I was here before but quit out of my poor performance but Im back with a renewed commitment to break my masturbation habit. I don't view porn but masturbate when the pressures build up to the point where I can't think straight. It feel like after a couple of weeks my brain is floating in...

So years and years of porn and sex addiction have finally suffered a fatal blow. I honestly thought I was doomed to be a seedy old lonely man sat staring at his computer, cut of physically and emotionally from the world. Constantly craving, constantly feeding the insatiable monster as my desires...

Hey everyone. I am a 24 year old man from the US who has been convinced about the benefits of NoFap and quite frankly the honest horrors associated with watching porn and masturbation, and how pathetic and damaging it really is for your own self. Like many others, I have tried to go down a...

It has been almost 3 weeks in my new job. My roles and responsibilities have increased in the new organization. For the first time, I will be leading a team. I am excited to start this new journey which is paying better than what I was getting in my last organization. I have actually turned 31...

This challenge is not about reaching 365 days of no PMO and calling it quits. Let the journey continue. In this challenge the main goal is to pass 365 days. If you make 1 year and 1 day you can proudly say that you have made more than a year of no PMO. If you happen to have a record streak of...

I really feel like I'm not in control of myself anymore. Every day I tell myself I won't do this again and I pray to God for forgiveness and I promise myself that I won't do it again. And then the very next day it happens again and then I feel so guilty and so sad and disappointed and lonely...

Hey guys, I'm ready to fully quit this but need an accountability partner to basically tell them of why I do this and what I want to do to change. Would be really appreciated!

I made a brand new random email that I won't save the credentials to anywhere, specifically to register here, specifically so that I can make this post and hopefully have some accountability. I've tried so much, and I almost got a year down over my belt, but then I decided to relapse. I really...

An Online Tool that has Helped me to Focus on Tasks! I have been off PMO for a little other a month now. That means I am one third of the way through my reboot. I am so excited! In the early days, I found it extremely hard to focus on tasks. I found myself drifting and wasting time on social...

See I'm lonely and you're lonely so hit me up. Simple. I'm polite and I don't have any friends plus I'll be your accountability partner.

Hi there, I am 22 year old male and am an undergraduate engineer from Britain I have been trying to give up masturbating on and off now for a good two and a bit years. I have made some progress sometimes (never more than a month), feel as though I am benefiting myself, but then ultimately...

Hi there! I am a 26yr old bisexual man. I began watching porn around the age of 13, but it was within a household that the very act was made extremely shameful and was not talked about. My sex education consisted of what I was able to teach myself from a set of encyclopedias we had in our home...

Hi everyone, My first post on here for around 18 months i think. I've been *trying* to give up porn, masturbation, orgasm recently for over a year, everything's been understandably loads harder since extreme lockdown restrictions were imposed in my home country (UK). Opportunities to date or...

About 2.5 months ago, I had to split things on with my fiance (which is now my former) because she had some not-good things going on. Bless the situation. That was hard for me emotionally and I relapsed hard on alcohol and porn one week after our split. I watched porn for like 3 hours straight...

Hello!:) I’ve never really joined a forum before, I’m not quite sure how this works. I stumbled upon this site as I was looking online for any way to find an accountability partner via the Internet. Hopefully I can learn to navigate this word of forums and find help through support of others...

Hi there guys i posted this in the reboot section didnt really get a response so i thought i would try here. No matter where you are in the world everyone is being effected by this virus in some way or another. I had previously been clean (from M and P i had another issue i was tackling) or...

Hi Everyone, I had a question about computer accountability and was wondering if anyone had some advice over my situation and tips in general. Ultimately I understand that no software is 100%, but I was wondering what is everyone's favorite ways to make their own computer and devices secure...

Okey so today when I came back from a 30 min run, I began browsing my computer to purchase an online workout program, when I noticed an old P membership. I purchased it for a dollar but later was charged 45:D, scums jajajaj. Now keep in mind that I have accountability software installed in my...

Hey everyone this is my first post here i was wondering if you guys know any accountability services that i could put like a password with them so i wont be able to access my router or like the filters its often hard to tell people about this and i would like to know if there is something like...

Hello everyone, I’m new here and about to embark on a 90 day hard mode reset. I’m interested in any advice and information you may have to share with someone like myself. Never quit for more than 14 days in the past six years. Enough is enough. I’ve tried to quit many times and failed. I’m...

Hey guys, I have a number of filters on my phone and Mac as well as accountability software, however I have come across a loophole which has played a part in a recent relapse. My macbook has the option to open a guest user, which only has safari browsing and does not allow installation of any...

Hello,my brothers I'm 35 years old man who struggle for pornography and masturbation. but today, I decided to fight against it. Please please give me encouraging message. My feeling is little bit highter than usually. l feel this emotion is unusual. I decided to fight against this emotional...

Today I am 329 days porn/masturbation free. I was introduced to porn at age 5 by a neighbor kid and struggled with a porn habit as a teen. The thing I found most helpful was having good Men's Group and an Accountability Partner. With those in place I was able to successfully fight porn for...

Around 2 years ago, I started covering up the sensitive part of my penis with band-aid every time I'm going to sleep or whenever I'm at home after 12 PM. The reason I'm doing this is the band-aid could act as a reminder that I shouldn't be masturbating. I usually masturbate when I'm supposed to...

Hi guys and girls, Is there a way to hide a whatsapp chat - ie no notifications, doesnt appear at top of chat list? Dont worry this isnt for devious reasons, but I am looking to have a whatsapp accountability partner but I dont want there check-ins, messages and that appearing on my phone that...

Gents and ladies of the forum, This will be my 3rd try at life-long abstinence from the P word. Starting with a 90-day reboot. I'm 35 and just found out I'll be a dad again. I can't imagine one of my children walking in on me. It would probably kill my marriage. So this time it's serious. I...

With privacy concerns in mind (there's a lot of malware disguised as good stuff out there), let's share software tools that have helped us fight porn addiction. Software tools that we've used, preferably, otherwise please state it so we know and we can be cautious before installing. I'd start...

Hello world! Over the past few years I have had great success against pornography. I used to watch it on a daily basis for years and was hopelessly addicted to the stuff. A few years ago I had a solid two years of not watching it, but had a relapse phase during a period of mental health issues...

I'm a 21 year old student at Uni of Cambridge in UK and I want to quit porn and masturbation. I first viewed porn when I was 13 and recognied that I had a problematic relationship with it at 15. My longest NoFAP streak is 3months (unsupported). My recent attempts have proven to be...

Usain Bolt, literally the fastest man alive. LeBron James, one of, if not the best of the game. Roger Federer, has been at the very top for a loooooong time. Despite being basically super-human, what do they have in common? They reportedly sleep 10-12h EACH DAY. 9-10h sleep during the night...

Hey, A friend of mine and me are building a group of guys with whom we can regularly play some video games together, have some fun but also keep each other accountable and support each other when things (inevitably) get tough. We have been free from porn 2 and 5 years respectively and been...

Hi all, I'm a second-year engineering student and I've struggled with porn addiction and compulsive masturbation since high school. PMO has definitely been a root cause of many of my issues like social anxiety, depression, and lack of motivation, and over the last two years I've tried many...

I've been addicted to pornography since I was about 12, and I'm 20 now. I am in a relationship, and I was honest about my addiction. I love my girlfriend so much, and I want to get better for her, but I continue to relapse. I have identified some of my triggers in order to prevent future...

Why am I here? Easy answer is because I want to quit. My story is the same as so many, so I’ll make it short. I’m a married man with children. Ive had long stretches of sobriety, but have been currently back to a once a week slip. I have been messing with Covenant Eyes for years, and...

Porn is an addiction. The studies are clear on the effects of porn on the brain. So if porn is an addiction how can it be stopped? It's simple: the same way people cut out other addictions, getting rid of all the substance and utilizing the buddy system. Ways this can be done are installing porn...

Hello ladies and gentlemen, as I said earlier I will take my time to write a long post for everyone. THANKS! For the people that helped me overcome this obstacle. For the people that liked my content and encouraged me to not give up when times are the toughest. For everyone that wrote a...

I love this question because it got me thinking.. We can be so fixated on how we expect everybody else to treat us and have all these benchmarks that we want everybody else to meet but do we even tick our own boxes? This is the notion of having standards that we are also striving to live up...

Before I'd even heard of the NoFap, or stopped to think about others having similar issues with excessive porn use, I'd tried to quit a few times. I think I managed a couple of weeks at the most but as soon as I reached a point of weakness in my life (hangover / long period without...

What’s up guys! So I’m new to this site, although I’ve heard about it for some time now, over the last couple weeks I’ve been checking out all this site has to offer, I’m ready to join the community. My name is Adrian and I’m looking for some support and hopefully an accountability partner(s) to...

Hi everyone, My name is Sam and I am starting my abstinence journey today. I have been a user of adult content for around 13 years and it was only a few years ago when I first attempted to stop that I realised how much of an issue it really was. I have attempted to stop many times now but have...

hi everyone, im a member of the generation that had the opportunity to start watching porn when we were... say, 8/9 years old? i am 24, and since i was that age, i dont believe i have gone more than a week without pmo. it is so normalized by our society. well, now, i know it affects my...

Hi everyone, I am a 22 years old male, and I'm currently pursuing a degree in university. After so many years of struggling with pornography and living in the denial that I am addicted to it, I am finally using this platform as an outlet and as a journal to keep track of my journey. The...

This is not a filter. It's letting someone else see ALL your internet activity. It removes the secrecy of PMO. They even see if you uninstall it. Nothing is foolproof, but Covenant Eyes takes accountability to the next level. We talk a lot about accoutability here, but having an Accountability...

Hey guys I'm gonna talk about my succes story with ED. I hope this post don't be a trigger. That was the reason I started nofap. I was 21yo dating a 31yo woman that I met on the internet. We've been on online dating for about 2 months and we dicided to meet each other in real life. Her aunt had...

Hey, nofapstronaughts. Im not really good at writing post but anways Im on day 41ish(kinda lost track started 2weeks before this month) Both porn and drugs is a disease! If your not doing one your doing the other. Porn has robbed me of my manhood. I've lost alot of opportunities and growth, not...

Greetings fellow fapstronauts and readers. After a very long time I have finally reached 30 Days no PMO again. The last time I was on 30+ days was back in December 2017. That means it took me 9 months of constant relapse cycles to finally get back on the path. (I had a 20 day streak at March I...

Hallo! So my husband asked me a few difficult questions on porn and now I am posting my answers here. This is not an easy subject to write about. It is an even more difficult subject to discuss with your life partner, especially if it is the first time. I've been on the block for a few years...

Well I’m finally gonna man up and post something. My name is Chris and I’m struggling really bad with PMO. Whether it’s pornography, a sudden urge, me being tempted by a good looking woman at work or Facebook or any kind of social media. I really need some help and an accountability partner for...

Going on 17 days straight and I have to say this has been an incredible journey so far. I hit a wall around day 13, but just became reenergized today. I have had more confidence within myself, make more eye contact in conversations, feel stronger at the gym and smile a lot more. I was offered a...

I have been doing nofap on and off for at least 2 years. My longest streak was 53 days. I started to think that nofap was stupid and a waste of time but now I've noticed that my porn and MO habits are skyrocketing through the roof so I desperately need help and an accountability partner. I...

Hi there, I came across NoFap after seeing it a few times on youtube. I decided to make an account as I have attempted this journey for myself before, & the best I've been able to achieve is 14 days. My goal here is to reach new levels in my life and truly become the person I was meant to be. At...
