coping

I found that boredom + lack of movement always gets me to relapse, what do you struggle the most when it comes to withdrawal from PMO or anything you've tried quitting recently? I believe awareness is the first step to recovery, even if it seems like it's too much

My story after knowing NoFap for 5 Years - I don't exactly know why i am writing this. Maybe as a way to review and get things of my chest. Yesterday i went to a psychotherapist for the first time which i will mention at the end and wrote my four most relevant questions down. So i joined this...

This is a long post and with me being new here I’m not sure if it’s inappropriately long. Please forgive me if so, I just desperately need to talk to someone. I did something Monday night and have been riddled with guilt ever since. I've been having difficulty sleeping and my heart constantly...

Waifu culture is a thing that's evolved, 20 years ago it didn't even exist, nowadays there are waifus of all sizes and colors, with personalities, and FC's, fanart, merchandising, international releases and shit pro fighters and actors don't even get. When I was younger I watched Free! and other...

So. This might be a weird or dumb question. And I don’t know if anyone can answer it easily. But as someone who is trying to support my boyfriend who’s going through relapses and fighting his addiction, I was just wondering what it is like. What your mind thinks and how you feel. What the best...

How do you cope with stress and boredom? These are probably the biggest triggers for my relapses. About a month ago the combination of stress (caused by work and my personal programming projects after the work) and without recovering from that stress. Being tired and unable to do anything led to...

It is cringy and pathetic as fuck, but I had a waifu. I think I fell in love with a fictional character, especially when I think how I felt about her from perspective of time. I was idealising her, liking image of boyish and cocky on the outside, but cute, shy and feminine girl in the inside I...

Hi, I'm new here. I just began with NoFap a few days ago. I disclosed my porn habit to my partner early on in our relationship. The problems my addiction created have been present under the surface the whole time but only recently have those problems really surfaced. She called me out on the...

I am tearing up as I write this. I've been addicted to PMO since I was 13 and now I'm 29. This is my first thread on Nofap. I realized I cannot do this on my own, and this community is the first time I rely on others for help. I need help and guidance. I cannot control the urges of instant...

Hello everyone. I feel like I'm getting to a point where none of my strategies for resisting urges are ultimately working. Here is a list of some things I have tried: Cold showers: they work for a little bit, and then the urges keep coming back. What am I supposed to do, keep taking cold...

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...

I'm not sure if there's people who have been in the same situation as me. My SO looked at porn, as well as talked to camgirls and escorts privately. It's been a month since d-day, and I'm finding it hard to cope with my anger and invasive thoughts. Is there ways you and your partner have...

For probably ~2 some years now I have suffered from some ED and DE symptoms. Getting to the bottom of this has been a frustrating process especially because i'm not sure the cause because it may be anti-depressant related, P consumption related, O methods related etc. I have tried to cutback...

so yesterday I relapsed after hitting day 9 which is a big streak for me. Now today I’m feeling pretty depressed because of it, and I know I will be depressed for at least another week now. How can I pick myself up? How can I battle the depression of the first few days? My goal recently is to...

This last week has been really difficult, and I'm interested to hear what you guys do when you feel you're about to relapse. When I'm about to relapse, my brain blocks out all positive thoughts, and no matter how hard I try to remember, I forget all of the reasons to carry on and it's so...

Hey everyone! Found NoFap browsing through different articles and websites trying to find a way to cope with this. I'm a wife to a PMO addict and we have a beautiful 9-month old daughter. Recently he admitted to being addicted and to having cam sex, as well as sending and receiving nudes to...
