    It clicked in my mind when I realized I have PE because of Porn

    Last night, I discovered that I have PE, and that was the straw that broke the camel's back and put me on the track to NoFap. Pornography has led me down a solitary road, leaving me anxious in social situations and distant from my loved one, my family and friends. Despite my active and fit...

    Freedom is possible (inevitable) and well within your capacity to attain

    Hello, I'm new to this forum. I'm 25 years-old, and I used to struggle with addiction to pornography since I was 12. Though I don't have a streak/count of consecutive days "clean" to show you, I can easily say for myself that I am no longer addicted to PMO. It used to be the first thing I'd do...

    Starting again

    Hi all! I'm a reader of the reddit version of this forum since November 2022, when I started my first serious attempt at this, through NNN. I use some app blockers in my phone, and they include reddit, so deactivating my blockers to read this was becoming counter-productive. So here I am! In...

    Hesitation to act confident because it can be lost so easily?

    Have you ever felt very confident while on a good streak of abstinence from PMO, but yet held yourself back because you know if you go home and relapse in the evening you will be the total opposite of what you were yesterday i.e. not confident at all and people (who obviously don't know anything...

    Practice Gratitude every day

    Being grateful is the secret to happiness. A gratitude list will help you become more of a glass-half-full person. I practice gratitude every day. Everyday I write in The 6-minute Diary (google it). Writing down a gratitude list everyday is a very good exercise for me to be grateful, to be...

    A fulfilling lifestyle that doesn't require fapping

    Hi there, I'm busy setting up a lifestyle that is so fulfilling that masturbation doesn't have to be an option anymore. Most people masturbate because they have an unfulfilling sexual lifestyle. What I'm going to do is to learn a way of life that doesn't need fapping. The motivation for not...

    This is a Book That I Recommend to EVERYONE Struggling With Porn/Sexuality/Intimacy

    I recommend the book "Healing the Shame That Binds You" by John Bradshaw. It is $7 bucks that just might help you change your life. Excessive shame is the driver for repressing emotional needs that you express as a "need" for pornography, drugs, alcohol, womanizing, voyeurism, self-harm...

    Regain what I lost?

    I’m sure many of you have read the post by Peter9797 about the many side effects of masturbation and unfortunately I would have to agree with most of what he claims the side effects were regardless of if they’ve been proved or not because personally I have experienced the side effects.

    emotional and spiritual growth?

    I have been going through my own version of emotional and spiritual growth over the last couple of years and I have most certainly come a long way, but a thought struck me. How could I possibly know if i grew at all when i have no idea what growth even means. I've updated views and opinions...

    Cherishing The Challenges

    As a user of PMO, I know the side effects of this has caused me to withdraw from activities like meeting with friends, family, and even simple conversations. Things I've started I wouldn't follow through with. Seeing how my low confidence causes me to doubt even the most simple things, I've...

    Hi NoFap! and everyone here, So I don't really know where to begin, but I guess starting with talking about myself and why I joined this group would help.
