adhd

Hi everyone! I am 29yo, started watching porn/masturbating when I was around 13/14, and it always felt like it was just normal. I was constantly horny, checking out guys and fantasising a lot. Childhood was a bit hard so (now I know) I found ways to feel less emotions or to numb! With time the...

Hi, I am a mid 40s male, happily married for 19 yrs to the love of my life. I have been addicted to PMO since, I think, 6th grade/12 yrs old. I have a HIGHLY addictive personality that I am just finally starting to unpack and organize. Several bouts of alcohol misuse, abstinence, then...

Hello everyone. I am a lazy person who always procrastinated now I am having my exams and I almost studied nothing till now I will give my best in the two months and then we will see the results I have no hope of it working out I mean me passing but I want to give my best and so I created this...

Hey guys, I didn’t know where to put this so I’m here. There used to be a group or something for adhd and PMO addictions but I couldn’t find it. (If any moderators see this I think it could be a really good idea to add something like that somewhere) But anyway, I just had a read of this...

Hello fellow Rebooters, I am now 36 years old male person. I was addicted to gaming since childhood and I was able to quit gaming through Cam Adair's Gamequitters website and reddit's stopgaming sub. I got addicted to porn in 2006 september and I can go a maximum of 7 days without PMO. Then i...

Before I was addicted to P I was able to focus and enjoy what I do (studying or working). But since I started fapping, I feel my attention span was getting much shorter. I have to force myself to stay focused while working or when talking to people and it keeps getting harder. I think...

Hey all, I have been on the journey to get diagnosed with ADHD, something that should have been done years ago. I’ve done some research about the ways the dopamine reward system works with a ADHD brain and what I found is quite scary for someone with a clear porn addiction. People with ADHD...

Introduction I consider to have started my NoFap journey on September 2019, so it is almost 4 years in the NoFap journey. NoFap has lead to absolutely massive positive life changes for me and I thought I’d give something back to the community. Particularly I wish to give hope to those...

Im currently in month 9 on nofap, not one relapse since I started and it’s been difficult but I’ve been able to push through. I noticed some benefits month 1, I was more confident, driven, etc. But in month 2 I decided to quit vaping too, which led me into a depressive/unmotivated state for some...

Hi guys, Currently on day 9 of nofap and was just wondering something. I have ADHD and I take medication for it, but because you are trying to reset your dopamine levels by not watching porn and wanking your dick the entire day, isn't it counterproductive to your dopamine receptors when you...

Hi there guys! So I've been on and off NoFap for a few years with little success until very recently. I have been perusing the benifits and it seems like if you actually do nofap then it is supposedly supposed to help out with focus in social sitsuations, as well as work sitsuations. I'd like to...

Hi So I have a therapist now. We had our second session today. In the first session I mentioned the pmo/mo/fmo problem I had growing up and how I think it's the cause for why I struggle with overwhelm, dissasociation, stress and anxiety. Today we discussed ADHD and after the session I've just...

Hey Guys, Years ago I was on NoFap hard mode because I had a horrible porn addiction and I really wnated to get rid of it. When I finally buckled down I made it alomost two years! To make a long story short I got married and settled down but my wife ended getting diagnosed with a condition...

Hello, I have been struggling with porn for a long time. Whenever I watch pornography I feel like it is an impulse something I do without thinking whenever I try to resist I can’t focus and when I fap I feel like my ability to focus has increased and I can finish my work. The problem is porn...

Hi folks, at however stage you are of rebooting, I wish you good luck. Here is article I found, written by Dr. Brianne Holmes, very useful in understanding subject of dopamine. Worth checking ! Because some of the rebooting symptoms may be just caused by change in behavioral patterns (cutting...

Hi, I'm a 25 year old gay male. I've been using porn since age 14 or so, and at least half of the P has been related to a specific fetish (macrophilia). I have been PMO once a day almost every day since then, and started doing PMO twice a day the last couple years, and I realized it was getting...

If I may ask, how do I differentiate difficulty in focusing on different subject caused by PMO addiction and one that is caused by undiagnosed ADHD ? (or if anyone here has ADHD and PMO addiction, would you mind sharing your story. You could hit me up through messaging if you don't feel...

At 14 I started masturbating to women using my imagination, then I transitioned to google images and I eventually approached porn streaming within 6 months. Watching mostly mainstream hardcore porn with cum-shots and stuff that you all know. I stayed in that place for the longest time, scoring...

Im ashamed of myself that Im even doing this.... So about me.. Im fairly "normal" I have no problem with getting laid, I just have a PMO addiction Ive been fighting with for years. Im ADHD Hypersexual, probably two times harder than a regular person cause my mind craves the sh*t out of...

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...

Hello, I am new to NoFap. I am 14 year old boy and have been masturbating since I was 11 but i started watching porn when I was 6. Yeah, 6. The impact porn has had on me since i started masturbating is outrageous. My addiction has gotten so bad that by 13 I started to jack off in class. Luckily...

This last year has been one of the worst in my life. I've been unemployed and struggling. Most of my life I have been ambitious and hard working. Now, I can't seem to find the energy to try. I need to practice my programing skills, I need to finish my grad school applications, and I need to...

Hi there guys and gals! Well, I have been trying to quit for something more than a year. Porn has reinforced my social anxiety, depression and general low-selfsteem. Mind you, I'm not saying it is the cause of it but it certainly reinforces all them. I was born from an unloving couple. My...

I felt devastated on the day when I realized that my MO had lead me into another huge problem - it was ADD (Attention Deficiency Disorder). The more I read about it, the more horrified I was. It was because I felt like I had pushed myself, my own good brain into this disorder which I never had...

I am one of those extreme cases. I have tried several times to slowly and gradually work my way out of MO for at-least four years and the biggest streak I was ever able to achieve was just three days on conscious control and ten days when I had no other option but to stop - like being forced too...

I was wondering if any of you guys have found emotion/meaning after dealing with PMO or anxiety/depression. I have been on an antidepressant since 14 (I started PMO when I was 11), and as life has progressed, I have lost emotions or passion for anything. I am just complacent, I have come to...

Going strong (20 days) but emotions are still numb. Can’t decide if that isn’t because of extremely high stress due to school, the withdrawal/flatline, or the SSRI I am taking. I am guessing SSRI, but I am wondering if anyone has noticed that their medication (antidepressant, etc.) has affected...

Hello Everyone, My name is Victor, I am 23 yeard old guy from Colombia and I have been addicted to porn since I was child. In the past two years, I have been able to assess a lot about myself, mainly because of the loneliness I have experienced during my music program in the U.S.. P and S...

i'm new here, so hello! i'm posting this to get some support, gain some friends struggle form the same thing and give some lesson to someone who is still destroying himself. i'm almost 30 years old, i thought this the age when you should feel at your best form all aspects but due to maturbation...

Please your comments would be highly appreciated, I think I have all 4, and they are related devils. Let's share.

So last year, actually a year ago yesterday, I started a streak that would go on to last 287 days, my longest ever by 250+ days. At first, it helped everything in a huge way. That all changed around the thirty day mark when I started to notice it was becoming harder and harder to focus on...

Hi, I am a male in my early 30s, now with over 18 months experience in the fine practice that is: no pmo. What a journey it has been and continues to be. Hope everyone is doing well. Good to be here, it really is. Hope to be a good influence and keep learning, sharing and progressing. Just...

This is the vicious cycle that I unfortunately got caught in. It is an incredibly difficult challenge to quit internet porn when you have high speed internet 24/7. I realize that my ADHD brain decided to use porn as a quick fix but instead I became a porn addict and the porn addiction...

Dear NoFap Community, Im a 25 year old male student, living in Germany (Persian descent though) that may have mastrubated to pornographic content since at least 10 years, (You remember diskettes?) here with the intent to go for a 90 Day Streak. Personality/What I like... I am naturally drawn...

Hey Guys, I am new here and I searched the forum for this kind of thread (found none). I am suffering from depression and dpd, have bpd accentuation and watched porn since the age of 12. I think it´s a little bit more difficult to handle the challenge in combination with a mental disorder. I...

I have problems that are exacerbated by Adderall and ADHD in general. I currently am prescribed Adderall to treat my ADHD. XR 25mg. However as much of a miracle drug this has been for it. It's negative side effects have grown. Long story short it makes me want to look at porn all day. And...

It's been 11 years of this unwanted and unworthy indulgence,and the only reason is "PORN".i have researched upon all consequences of excessive practicing but even then I failed thousands of times.Though I have felt completely broken from inside a couple of times and I have got many psychological...
