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. Been here before with not much success but as No Nut November coming round the corner, it feels like the right time to try this again. I’m a 38 year old gay male who quite frankly has had a porn addiction since my early teens. It has been just fairly a constant addiction which I never...

Hi I have really big problem, whenever i start NoFap, i can't sleep after few days. I work as construction worker in Norway, 4:30am-7pm monday-friday. I go to sleep 1-2 am becouse my heart beat so loud and strong, my head have milions of thoughts. I'm tired all the time. I have my familly in a...

When i play video game, sometimes it makes me angry or frustrating and want back to old habits...

Its really difficult to stop something that you knowingly did for 15 years , i have never been in such a weird situation. Well got up today did my chores and slowly arose freaking urges which led me to use that chat app which i used to talk to girls around for sxting and met few of them and...

Hi :) im really stuck in a cycle of shame, which fuels my bad habit because i'm very into humiliation...im 24 and gay. I like tv, movies, music, nature, politics, travelling, arts, fashion, design, and cooking! I am also trying to get into yoga and working out. Some of my favourtie artists are...

Hello everyone! I've been addicted to PMO since I was only 8 years old. It has been engraved in me for years and now that I'm a full grown man I feel that I am unable to even think properly. I have a full time job and am going to be a new Dad, but with that this addiction has still taking me...

Hey there! I am a 28 year-old porn addict who has tried to get free from his addiction with very little success. I have withdrawn myself from friends and family and rarely even go out anymore unless I actually have too. I hate my job due to the stress it causes , but fear quitting due to the...

TLDR: I feel like a normal non "addicted" person again after questioning my views on porn and nofap "recovery" Most of this is personal experience, but I think some may find it helpful. Feel free to disagree: So its been around 4 years (maybe longer now) since I first immersed myself in Nofap...

I have never seen someone so detached from reality as this guy. He talks pretentiously to the police and keeps spewing misogynistic nonsense so comfortably like he is anonymously typing on a 4chan board. All the while seeing himself as the rightous one. If there's anything that shows the impact...

For the last probably week or so I’ve been trying to self-actualise and better myself and to be honest it felt great. I was doing cardio, volunteering at a charity shop, playing guitar, drawing, meditating, doing work… today starts off great but then I spend 3 fucking hours playing a game with...

It is said again and again that porn triggers something pathological with our neurotransmitters and this is exactly the problem I am currently facing. I feel good watching incest porn or hentai. There's this website where you get new porn every day and it's almost like a mixture of addiction and...

Hey everyone! So it may sound crazy but read and try it out. And then get back to me. Mechanism- Honestly, Just Total Dopamine Detox approx say (70-80) % Method- For those 20 days time- Simply 1. Cut out all porn of course. 2. No video games, no music. 3. No youtube, no videos of any sorts. 4...

Hi newbie here, i actually didn't know there are so many great forums here it's pretty amazing tbh! My porn addiction story is like any other: i started watching it when i was 13-14 (now 20) and it destroyed my life. I decided to join this community last night when i saw my self getting...

Hi Triggers Warning I have a old secret m when i was 16 old. I had a classmate that he had a friend.One day my classmate told me that we could go to his friend home and we had been sex with together.(gay) I was very horny and I couldn't get a g/f and I...

It was never a dream of mine to become an "expert" on PMO but after years of failed attempts and relapses, I think I have valuable information to share about my recovery. Like many of you, I've tried every possible method ie; hard mode, light mode and everything in-between to combat my...

Hi guys, I said I would be done with these forums and what not. But after being ignored by a SAA meeting admin I felt I needed to let this out. About a year and a half ago I started to become addicted to porn and I didn't even know it. I started using more often, and more intense and strange...

im a bisexual guy , i used to enjoy having sex with men and woman , i met a girl , she's the love of my life , we got married a year and a half ago , after that i unfortunately started using grindr , i had few months without a job due to covid crisis so had a lot of home alone time , i was on...

Hey guys. I'm a teen who had a lot of porn addiction problems and as a result had a destroyed self confidence. Then I found nofap and it has been 1 year since I started my NoFap in my life. I have had really good streaks with 45days 62 days and 2 30 day streaks. But all that amazing...

Hello, I discovered this forum some time ago but finally I had the courage to write my first post, also somehow because of my despair. Well my name is Marcos and I’m 24 years old and I’ve been a pornography addict for the last 10 years. It all started with normal model’s lingerie photos...

This is a quote from the bible that popped into my head while thinking about todays gen and the state of young people.. "People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, without self-control, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God." Im seeing the lovers of...

As opposed to before hardmode.. My D was always in deadmode.. The good thing about this is its always semi hard now..im not getting MW or 100% erections..but yes it gets semi hard every now and then.. Just by the thought of sex or any erotic..it may be bad if thinking erotic stuff and sex with...

Hello people, I wanted to create a thread dedicated to journaling my progress towards my 90 days goal. The first time I attempted NoFap two years ago I made it to 51 days before relapsing but this time I'm hitting 90 days. Part of the reason why I'm making this thread is to add that extra...

Only been a few days since I come back on here to reboot , but just can’t take control was maybe a day before I relapsed then the binge started . In one weird sense I like it , well obviously to much !! The worst part is I’m thinking about pmo all the time and rather do that than anything . The...

Hi everyone, I'm a 20y/o who's recently become interested in psychology and philosophy despite my degree in physics. Through this reading, I discovered my unhealthy relationship to porn (not that i believe there can be a healthy relationship to porn). At first I wouldn't admit to myself I...

How does porn addiction compare to things such as a alcohol addiction or a heroin?

3 years... I've learned about NoFap about 3 years ago. 3 years ago, I was so addicted to pornography and masturbation that I do it at an average of three times per day. One, before I go to school. Two, when I go home from school. And three, before I go to sleep. Been doing this routine for...

The process of rebooting is a challenge in itself, abstaining from habits (vulgar) and lucrative content is all about dealing with flatlining and staying strong on the purpose is what people say. However, what exactly is Flatline and its affects on human body and brain no one tells. This is a...

Made it through Day 2! Well, caveat - today is “technically day 7 MO free. But I did have a slip yesterday I guess? I looked at some suspect picture for a minute and definitely lingered on some dodgy thoughts for a second. So I dunno if today is day one or two. Still assessing counting. Either...

I told myself I'm starting today! I quickly failed. But I quickly found this site and I'm doing it. I'm going 90 days. I will break free from these addictions.

I'm 50 days in nofap and I had 2 wet dreams. One after 35 days and another today.

Hello to all of you, courageous partners of porn addicts like myself... My boyfriend is still on reboot, it almost been 30 days now and that's the longest he ever made it clean so far, so I guess he's doing things right this time. But here's the thing: I know, it's stupid and bad of me, but...

Hi all, A quick update: A few months ago i decided to try to break my porn addiction by nofap. To this day i have constantly failed with my longest attempt being a pathetic 9 days. It got to the point today where i totally gave up and had my usual 6 hour edging session. I am working from home...

Not gonna give too much back story because it's pretty irrelevant but I'm a big guy 6'4 240lbs and 20 years old. I've always been attracted to girls but one time when I was 14, I was watching porn and to my surprise, the girl whips a dick out. Immediately I thought "oh shit, that's gay" and...

Hi everyone, it's my first post here in NoFap and I wanna introduce myself. I'm not a native English speaker so forgive me if I write with some mistakes :) I'm a 17 year old male. I've been masturbating since 11 and watching porn since 12. I consider myself as a porn addict and a fap addict...

hello all. I have stopped masturbating and watching porn since a week ago. during this holiday I study and play games, I also spend my free time watching movies. unfortunately I always watch films or series with adult genre, for example movies with lots of nude, sex, bikini, etc. when I want to...

Hi there! I'm a masturbation addict who usually never miss a day without it for almost 6 years. I don't remember the age that I first watched porn but my addiction started 6 years ago. After some time I started to watch porn less and less but started fapping to pics of the girls I know from...

to keep it short You can check my whole nofap journey by visiting my journal or info tab on my profile page. I was quite a addict for past 5-6 yrs who did PMOed frequently in the initial yrs to gradually 3-6 timed daily the previous 2 yrs. Started nofap in Nov 3, 2019. I lasted 28 days for...

I'm new to the site and am extremely anxious about the experience. But here goes... I have been viewing pornography since age 11, on and off as my access has been restricted throughout the years. I was doing fairly well from 19 to 21 but started relapsing a few times a week. After getting...

Hi i am a normal college student. I need a bit of your help guys on a few things. 1) I don't think that i am a porn addict, but then again I think that every addict says that he is not a addict and is in control. Can you please help me know that i am a addict or not. 2) I sometimes feel that i...

I'm having trouble staying in touch with the nofap community because I feel too ashamed of using this website. I turned off all notifications cause Im scared it will pop up in my classes, and I only use this website in incognito mode. I feel like I should talk to someone about me trying to quit...

Addicted to Porn: Chasing the Butterfly is a documentary I watched a year ago during my first streak of recovery. I understood the issue presented here stems further than science and morals can allow. How something as natural as sexuality becomes artificially regressive is not hard to realize...

Hello, this is my first publication yesterday I relapsed after my best streak of 7 days PMO, it is very little, but it is not easy to get there for an addict, yesterday I did PMO 3 times in a span of 24 hours. I am afraid of not being able to get out of this shit and make the situation worse I...

Hey NoFap, Honestly, I'm no stranger here. I've been here at least twice before with two different accounts. Each time I've given up and have returned to my pathetic PMO filled lifestyle. However, recently I took a trip to Thailand, disconnected from the world, did a little introspection and...

Hi guys... Currently a measly three days into a reboot. I posted a while ago about my first sexual situation and how I could not get it up when trying to put a condom on. After this I tried to tell myself that enough is enough and I would quit masturbating. Since that time I have unfortunately...

Hey Community! [GER] Ich habe eben etwas im Internet gestöbert und habe die Vorteile von NoFap gefunden. Da stand auch was von: Man benötigt etwa 90 Tage NoFap ( PMO: Porno, Masturbation, Orgasmus) um das Gehirn neu zu programmieren. Stimmt das?? Ich leide unter frühzeitiger Ejakulation und...

I'll begin with the basics. Hello everyone, I am Decibel Auras. 26 years old virgin & a P.M.O. addict. I discovered M.O. (without P) when I was 11-12 years old, and this became my nightly thing for many, many years. Nobody really explained to me what was happening at the time, I just figured out...

So I haven’t watched porn for a month. It wasn’t as awful as I thought it would be, and this is the hardest I’ve tried to stop watching it. Before I decided to try hard at quitting, I was getting bored with porn, which I saw as a good thing, bc now I could escape the cycle. It got to a point...

Ive been watching porn for the last 5-6 years now (im 17). In january I became really depressed because of my social circumstances, I felt i had no one by my side and the fact the I have extremely important but difficult exams coming up that will determine my future and the fact I have a lot of...

Hello guys and girls, My name is Diogo, 21 years old, I am portuguese and currently living in Portugal, I'm a Law Student and probably a pornography addict. I guess that everything started with me being 12-13 when I discovered by myself that a white liquid could come out of my penis if I would...

It's something I noticed over 2 years ago. I was at my peak in health and wellbeing. Had several partners with stamina that served me and them quite well. But somewhere along the lines, I started preferring to stay inside. A sense of complacency took over that kept making me feel like it is...

Hello, My name is Zain and I’m a new member of this community. I’m 15 years old. My age might be young for such a website, but I will try my best to get through it all. PMO has brought me a lot of stress and depressing moments in my life. In addition, it took up long hours if my days. Not too...

Hello, I have been doing PMO for 7 years. I am 20 and started at 13 The first 4 years it was regular P, then for 1 year it was more extreme P, at least 1 times per day (it could go to 2 or 3 sometimes). The last 2 years I progressively stopped watching regular P, I was watching clothed women...

Hello there, i've been an addict for about 2/3 years where recently i pmo about 3 times a day and i despise it so much after the actions. i always start a streak but never get anywhere ; maybe max 3 days and that's really bad. i'm just desperate of what to do everyday in my life that will help...

Husband quit because I asked him to. I know everyone will say that he is lying but you don't know him. He doesn't believe in lying and has quit other addictions cold turkey that could kill other men. He sets his mind to something and that's it. He is doing it out of respect for me but he...

So a little bit of background - I used to be into sissy porn, but the farthest I have initially taken it a couple of years back is anal stuff for two minutes with only visual hypno - since then, I took up NoFap, that seemed to help with a lot as I got a lot of my life back together, though the...

I am 25 years old. My first fap experience was in front of hentai at 14, but I was not an addict. Nowadays (since January 2018), every day I wake up for chatting with girls of my own city using vpn because they restrict viewers from Bogota. I even have found female friends performing there and...

I just joined this forum, I've been a porn addict for over 35 years. If anyone has any advice please let me know. I don't know where to start but I guess this is a good step. I'm also an alcoholic, but porn is like heroin to me, no I don't do drugs at all but I think my addictions are...

Where's the (thin) line between having a high sex drive and not getting enough sex? I ask this because I've been going through some relationship issues with my SO (significant other). In fact, last week we took some "space" which then led to breaking up, just yesterday. A friend of mine said...

Hello, I'm 22 years old and like the most people I read posts about, I started watching porn and masturbating at the age of 11/12. When I was 13 I started smoking and shortly after smoking pot, wich led to having several social problems and bad grades in school, which I tried to compensate with...

I started masturbating from the age of 16-17. I'm a short guy (5'1"), I was fascinated by seeing tall women and standing near them. I developed this fetish at the age of 16, it all started when I was trolled by my class mate (girl) for my short height and she being really tall for her age, I...

Hi there, I am new here. Thank you for this forum, I hope It's ok to share some of my troubles with you guys.

Hello Everyone! I'm new here. Looking to stop PMO. It is disgusting. I really want to get rid of this addiction. I really want to get rid of all the negative thoughts from my head. Hope this website help me to recover myself from my addiction.

Hi. Jay here. 30 Years old, single and gay man here. I am a professional and living alone abroad working in a construction company. I have many hobbies like reading, music, movies, travelling etc but since I live in a country where boredom is everywhere when you are not at work, instead of...

I never considered myself to have a porn addiction. I thought my porn consumption was casual at best. During the work week I'd come home and prehaps rub a gooden out after a long day at work and on the weekends in my own time that could increase to maybe 2 - 4 times on a particular lustful day...

Hi everyone, I'm not familiar with Reddit so I'm learning about navigating through the site and understanding how to post. I was introduced to NoFap about a year ago and "tried" it but it wasn't helping me. The truth was I wasn't helping myself because I wasn't using NoFap. I would just going on...

I'm 16 and I'm wondering if I should continue to do Nofap, or just do not using porn. My longest streak has been 178 days without fapping, but I noticed after the first couple of days, I was miserable. Since I'm a teen, would it be wise to cut out masturbation, or should I just limit it? I'm horny 24/7...

Started masturbating when I was about 10, and found pornography when I was about 12. I'm sure you've heard all this before, and I won't bother going into detail. All you need to know is that I've been trying to quit for about a year now, and yesterday on a whim I decided to check out the...

Hello community, I found NoFap after starting my own reboot out of desperation and massive fatigue. About 3 months ago I just stopped because I was tired of fighting a life long addiction to porn. It has taken a toll. I didn't realize that my headaches, anxiety, anger and fatigue we're due...

For the past 2 weeks, I have tried and failed to stop watching porn. I've been masturbating excessively to where I have pain. I cant seem to fight the urges to watch porn. It is ruining my self esteem and my life. I need advice on how to overcome urges, what you did to stop watching porn, and...

Hello to all! A little about me: I'm 16 and am looking to improve myself. I was first exposed to porn when I was 11 or 12, and I've been hooked ever since. It escalated to using extreme material (I won't go into any details) and PMO multiple times most days for a couple of years, as is the case...

I have been watching porn and masturbating to it since i was 12 years old. I never thought of watching porn and masturbating as a problem that i needed to fix. But there are things happening with me that have made me realize how much harm this addiction has done to me. Hence I have decided to...

Hi All, Just joined NoFap, i'm a porn addict and I started watching porn when I was 13. I look at it obsessively and PMO every day usually 1-2 times a day maybe up to 6 times a day. I haven't had a relationship in 2 years and my last one suffered as a result of my addiction. My last few sexual...

Hello friends! As the title of this posts states, this is my 3rd attempt to get over this horrible "disease". I have PIED (again). This is my third attempt at a reboot. My previous two were 90 days and 75 days of no PM. I was cured both times but fell back into the dark world of porn and...

Hello everyone, I’m Kintae. So my story.... I discovered porn at the age of 9, the following year I started jacking off. Before it wasn’t that common, sometimes it was monthly. Then it grew to be a weekly habit, then an everyday habit. I would go to the restroom, unlocked mind you, and do it...

Hello folks. I joined up here a good 6+ months ago because I decided I really wanted to tackle (no pun intended) the problem head-on. I've been a PMA for probably 18 years, since I first really discovered P when I was an early teenager (thanks to a childhood friend) and began seeking it out...

Hello, I am a 22 year old male. I just discovered this website today after a few weeks of trying to determine whether porn addiction was a real addiction or not. I just want to write my story to put it out there and hopefully just venting will help me feel a little bit better. I have been...

Hello fellow addicts, I'm new to this website. I have been on nofap for about a week now. I have not kept exact count of the days because it gives my mind the impression that PMO is going to be my award once I accomplish the 90 days. All I know is that I never want to go back to porn again...

Hey guys im a new member in the community so hello to all of u i was just thinking that what if for the more hardcore p*rn users they decrease the stimulus every time they fap and then completely stop it as many of them are more avid users they can reduce the stimulus in this way 1)If u watch a...
